18 months is the mark! Can't believe it. This was something
I wished would come quick, but now its a little weird. Still excited for home,
but there's a part of me that doesn't want to go. I'm glad you
liked that phone call. :) It was right after our mid week service and D. asked me,"Elder
Zaugg! I got 5 min of free calling to the U.S. right now. Anyone you want to
call??" I told him how we don't call except on those two days, Christmas and Mother's Day. Then I
thought...... "Do you want to talk to my mom?" :) He wasn't hesitant at
all! I love the guy! He absolutely loved talking with you. D. is
his name, and he is the strongest member here in HoHoe. He also was the first
person that we met when we got to HoHoe. If you met him, you'd love him! Mom,
Elder Wardell, a missionary in my last district, just told me that you and his
girlfriend met at DB this last week. Small world.
This Sunday was one of the best that we've had. All of our members bore
their testimonies and then we even had 4 of our investigators do it as well! 2
of them was their first time and they were sharing how comfortable and loved
they felt in the church. Even how they've had friends or others that have
talked about the church small and led them here. The one was a daughter to the
mysterious phone call man, J. We had met with J. earlier in the
week and he loved it so much that he gave us his daughters numbers to go teach
them. Saturday we met with the one that came to church, and she's married with
2 kids. When she came Sunday, she brought both kids and was really pleased with
what she heard and saw. Her father J. now has attended twice, was the
first of the investigators to bare his testimony. This being his second time
attending, he stood up and bore his testimony on how important the priesthood is
in baptism. That part of the church has hit home to him and the Spirit has
testified to him how important the Priesthood is. He's preparing for his
baptism on the 21st of this month. He doesn't forget that day either, its
great!
Love you all so much. kind of short email, but know its filled with
love!
Love Elder Zaugg
