6 Month Anniversary

Elder Lester's Mission Chart at 6 months - 182 days of Service. 
Brady told us that in the mission they burn a tie to celebrate the 6 month mark.

Alma 26:27

This is a letter that I sent Brady because he and his companion are having such a tough time in their area with investigators and getting the members to help out.


Elder Lester,

I have been thinking about area and the struggles you and your companion are having with the work and the members, etc...  read this and take heart:

In Alma 26 it talks about Ammon and the Four Sons of Mosiah and how their trials led them to success. I LOVE verse 27: "Now when our hearts were depressed, and we were about to turn back, behold, the Lord comforted us, and said: Go amongst they brethren, the Lamanites, and bear with patience thine afflictions, and I will give unto your success." 

Please remember that.  I'm sure you will have to remember that and have Faith in that throughout your mission...but the Lord will provide if we are doing our part...always.  And I know you are!



I love you,
MOM
