November 12, 2018 Attecoube (Week 9)

Hey fam what up?

It’s been a good week.  I got pretty discouraged yesterday seeing 0 investigators at church, but the Lord totally just came to my aide and I felt so good! It was like I could just feel him telling me this is all in his plan and it is his way of really teaching me to have patience that has how these past few months have been it has been a great teaching moment of my mission for sure!!  The mission is so much like hills on my XC race.  At first it’s so hard but after some time you become a pro at climbing them.  By the end I was just like how it will be with the mish! I will be so sad the day I leave but so ready to go home hahahaha!  Attitude is key in the mission man I have come to see the really power of positive thinking!  Slowly this secteur will start coming around I just know it!  Its the Lord’s guidance this last week we found 10 new people we are just talking to everyone and doing what you said Dad and then we just weed out the bad ones!  The next missionaries that come here will be happy cuz they will be baptizing a lot.  Hahaha  This has happened my whole mission.  I work super hard and the next people that come reep the rewards of it hahahahahaha I’ve come to see that this is really the Lord’s work man like it doesn’t matter about baptisms.  It is obedience and doing your best to make the secteur better than the way you found it!  We’re just focusing right now on the ones that are progressing.  Ben wait, I can’t believe you are submitting your papers in six months.  I need to see you!  I will die coming home and not finding you hahahahahaha  Geeeez you’re gonna kill me kid!  I know he’s so ready but I just can’t wait another 3 yrs to see him man hahahahaha  Give it 3 yrs and it will be like it was just yesterday hahahaha Can you believe that Elder died last week?  He was my new companion’s companion in the MTC.  He was only in the mission for 10 days.  They don’t know what happened to him.  He just woke up and wasn’t breathing right and then died in his trainers arms on the way to the hospital.  They had to sit with his dead body for an hour until they could get the people to come and take it to the morgue hahahaha Those three missionaries that were with him are freakling studs. Man I have so much respect for them!  One of them is like my best buddy he’s a great guy from Madagascar!  Just so sad man!  Also, his family aren’t members either. I hope they don’t hate the church for the rest of their lives.  I think it’ll be good.  President will take care of it.  He already called them and talked with them, so I think it is good!  It’s so sad, so please pray for his family.  Well I’m gonna go.  I love you guys sooo much have an awesome day and a great week!!!!
Love,
Elder LeBaron
