All is Well

This last week was good. I went to Elder Samatanda's area for an exchange. He is from Zimbabwe. It was fun talking with him and getting to know him better. My area is doing well. We are working hard and have more people to teach than time to do so. My prayer is that the Holy Ghost will convince people to read and pray. It seems like I only have time to just point people in the right direction.

I forgot to talk about Zone Conference last week. It was about the doctrine of Christ. While Jesus Christ taught many doctrines, His doctrine on how we can become like Him is above all the others. It is that through His Atoning Sacrifice we can become clean from sin and weakness. As we believe in that sacrifice we have faith. Faith leads us to want to be more like Him. We begin to change while we rely upon that sacrifice. We are baptized so we can promise God we can do better and have our sins wiped away. We receive the Holy Ghost so we can get more divine help for our quest in becoming like Him. We can never stop trying. It can be more complex, but it doesn't need to be. I know that as we do these things we will become more like Christ incrementally. 

I love each of you.
