My first full week with Elder Campbell was this week. It was pretty cool. We met a few more great people in Darnell and Tinsley. One of these people was a man named Marek. He was so sincere in wanting to care for his family. As we asked him why God and faith were important to him, he took a pause and then powerfully told us that through his life he had come to know the the help we get from God is the only help that matters. He told us of how any problem we have can be solved as we escape to God to use his words. It was so powerful as we all took that moment to appreciate God and His matchless power.
I know that Marek has found one of the greatest truths we can ever learn. I hope that I can get to know this man better and learn more from him about how he grew to follow God as well as invite him to experience the joy of the additional truth our church has. I have found that just like the Bible, the Book of Mormon has quiet my fears and answered my questions. I know that a living prophet has encouraged me to make very important changes in my life that have shaped me. And most importantly, I know that I have access to the power of God to be cleansed from anything that holds me back through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
Other than that, we tried talking to lots of people and I got good practice speaking conversational Slovak. I got to have a week with Elder Campbell who is so cool. He is from Utah and has a sister and was baptized three years ago. He loves this gospel and the Lord and you can feel the power of his conversion. He is hilarious and I can't wait for each new day. All is well over in England. The sun is even shining we also went to a sweet Cathedral and I will send some pics
We also had zone conference which was so good. I loved getting to see all of the friends that have since moved away. And I loved the spiritually uplifting messages.
Love you,
Elder Pace
Love you all,
Elder Pace
