Well, this week was pretty baller. Swag Yolo.
So on Monday the majority of the district went to Garden of the Gods, which is a sweet nature park in Springs. We walked around and saw big rocks, and jumped on big rocks, and did handstands and human flags on big rocks. I also go to break in those sweet joggers my family got me for Christmas. They were oh so very comfortable.
Tuesday Elder Johannesson and I broke my previous record of 11 lessons by one, and taught 12 of God's children in one day, and found someone who is ready for the gospel!
Wednesday we learned how to do more family history, which was awesome! We tracted again, this time in the snow, and found another new investigator! His name is Eric and he is the first Jewish person I have met on my mission. Really nice guy, it will be fun teaching him! We then saw the Armstrongs, my favorite family we teach. They are the coolest. Brother Armstrong is so close, I can feel it.
Thursday:We Helped this lady named Patty move some furniture. then we taught some people.
Friday: We were in Las Animas, and we got to see a lot of really awesome people there. We had dinner with the Dunhams, which was awesome, because they had the Death Gate Cycle on their book shelf, so I nerded out with them. Then we went to Sister Maldanado's house and nerded out again with her. It was the best.
Saturday we decided that we would break our own record and taught 16 lessons and found 2 new investigators. I love how the Lord blesses our efforts. By ourselves, we couldn't have taught even 1 lesson. I am too week. But through Christ I can do all things. I testify of that.
Sunday we tracted again and taught a bunch of people, and found a new investigator. He is an interesting guy who is writing a fantasy novel. Needless to say we got along. So by the end of the week my companion and I and the Lord had taught 60 lessons. I am so grateful to have been entrusted with this area. It is so awesome.
I testify that this is the true Church of Christ. He leads us and loves us. I testify that wickedness never was happiness. It just isn't. I testify Christ died and suffered for us. But He also rose and lives today. I testify that the Book of Mormon is the word of God. Joseph Smith was a prophet. Thomas S. Monson is a prophet. I know it. and I know it because I have pondered and studied and asked God. I love my Heavenly Father so much. I testify that with out Charity, we are nothing. I love this Gospel. I love this Church, but most of all, I love my Father and my Brother.
I love yall and hope your'e swell.
Love,
Elder Rogers
