WEEK 43: Homeless

We are between flats at the moment so we are homeless. We are crashing
with the Zone Leaders tonight, so that will be a blast. Anyways, sorry that I didn't send out a group email last week. I got pretty busy and didn't take care of that.

This week was really fun. Bubik, a 10 year old who was baptized a year ago, came to church again. He loved it. We have been working a lot
with his family. On Saturdays we go over and do some fun activity with
their kids. One week it was scripture theater where we acted out a story from the scriptures. This week it was coloring scenes from the scriptures. They loved it. I really like that family.

We have been putting in tons of work and effort, but we still don't have many people that are willing to talk to us. Not even a lot of the members of the church. Sometimes, it gets frustrating, but we are still having a blast in Darnall.

This week, the thing that really stood out to me is how much Christ has done for us. I have been focusing my studies more on Him and trying to work those thoughts into my conversations more since that is
what will change us. I have felt His power and His forgiveness. It is
honestly the best feeling in the world. No matter what weighs us down,
his shoulders are ready to bear the burden by our side. He is the best
friend this world had ever seen and will be there no matter how many
times we turn away. I have really enjoyed reading "The Living Christ"
and searching the New Testament for more about His life. But my
favorite still is 3 Nephi 11:10-11 when He appears to the Nephites and
declares that He paid the price for them. Anyone looking to be closer
with Christ, the Book of Mormon and Bible really are the way to do it.
I promise you that.

Love you all,
Elder Pace
