This was another great week!
Yesterday was pretty good. Kyle came to church and also Linda came to church. So that was good to see both of them there.
Also this week we did exchanges with the Armenian elders so that was fun to be with them.
We got our transfer calls and I will be getting a new companion tomorrow. I have served around him before so it will be good to be companions. His name is Elder Yoon. My current companion is going to the Samoan ward which is where I came from. So that will be good.
Today we played cards and basketball at the church. Then we got lunch as a district so that was fun.
We did a missionary fireside the other day and there was a quote I really liked :
"I have often said one of the greatest secrets of missionary work is work! If a missionary works, he will get the Spirit; if he gets the Spirit, he will teach by the Spirit; and if he teaches by the Spirit, he will touch the hearts of the people and he will be happy. There will be no homesickness, no worrying about families, for all time and talents and interests are centered on the work of the ministry. Work, work, work—there is no satisfactory substitute, especially in missionary work.”
President Ezra Taft Benson
I also like a scripture that has helped me on my mission. 2 Nephi 4: 34-35
34 O Lord, I have trusted in thee, and I will trust in thee forever. I will not put my trust in the arm of flesh; for I know that cursed is he that putteth his trust in the arm of flesh. Yea, cursed is he that putteth his trust in man or maketh flesh his arm.
35 Yea, I know that God will give liberally to him that asketh. Yea, my God will give me, if I ask not amiss; therefore I will lift up my voice unto thee; yea, I will cry unto thee, my God, the rock of my righteousness. Behold, my voice shall forever ascend up unto thee, my rock and mine everlasting God. Amen.
Have a wonderful day and a great week! Love you all!
Elder Toller
