Greetings from. . .my home
It
was very great to hear about the good experiences you had with the
Feeney family. What a miracle! I do believe there is work to do not only
for the dead, in the Feeney family tree. I really do look forward to
meeting them in the future.
Well, the mission is drawing
to a close. This week was another awesome one, full of exchanges, but I
enjoyed them. It feels so strange being an older missionary and then
seeing younger missionaries and thinking, "I remember when I was like
that." We had some fantastic lessons this week and our awesome
investigator is still on date for the beginning of June. He told us this
week that while reading from the Book of Mormon, he had an overwhelming
peace come over him and he knew it was true. He told us about his
yearning to be baptized and that all his doubts have been resolved as he
has read from the Book of Mormon. His faith in Christ is developing to
new heights as he continues to read.
The Book of Mormon is
the keystone of our religion and upon its truthfulness hangs all the
principles and doctrines of our church. without it our testimonies of
the restoration would not survive. Everyone should be reading from the
Book of Mormon daily. It will be attacked over and over again in the
years to come and we must be able to stand our ground. Without a witness
from the Holy Ghost we will find ourselves "tossed to and fro with
every wind of doctrine."
