Hello everyone!
This week has been interesting. It was Elder Spragg’s last week in the mission field. He flies home this Wednesday. Ahhh! Also, today is the first day of my last transfer. Oh how time flies. I guess it’s not official yet, but Elder Smith and I will most likely be training a new missionary this transfer! We will be picking him up on Wednesday!
We had kind of a scare this week with one of our top investigators, Alex. She had to cancel like 4 appointments in a row and then she texted us saying that she didn’t want to take the lessons anymore. We asked her if we could meet and just talk about it. It was such a powerful lesson. She was concerned that she wouldn’t be able to keep all the commandments. We talked about the Atonement and how it’s a process of becoming. We’ve realized that we have been teaching really effectively, but that we haven’t been emphasizing the Atonement very well.
We’ve begun to re-focus our teaching to people’s needs and it’s been so much better. We actually won’t be covering the family ward anymore and will be strictly YSA. We’re pretty stoked for the semester to start. There’s going to be so many people on campus and we need to find some new investigators.
Anyway, sorry for such a lame email this week. I love you all and hope you have a great week!
Love, Elder Steed
