Wow
this week has been just super great!! I love doing missionary work!! I
have just great joy when I share the Gospel of Jesus Christ!! And I know
it's all true and I just want others to know too!! So I'm just doing
great and I love that I represent Jesus Christ and get to feel His
presence with me as I am out there serving him!! I had felt the Spirit a
lot before my mission but wow, it is just a whole different level now!!
So I promise I'm not crazy ok but yesterday I was talking to this one
lady and the Spirit was giving me promptings- He and I had like a
conversation in my head!!!! It was so cool!! I was asking Him (the Holy
Ghost) questions and He was telling me what to say. It was super cool!!
I know the Holy Ghost is there to help all of us!! I'm so happy to be a
tool in the Lord's work!! I know that God has so much love for all his
children. I can't even describe how much love he has!!!
Well,
Mom and Dad that's awesome you guys have plans to spend time with each
other and go on vacation!! How is Dad doing with the shutdown? What is
it even about? And that's good you guys are getting ready for that rand
Canyon hike- that will be super fun!!! I love that stuff. How come you
guys do fun stuff after I leave!!? Just kidding!! We did lots of fun
things! I can't say I wish we had done more of that (we did plenty)!
But I'm happy you guys are doing good!! And ya I'm sorry about those
airsoft holes in my walls! Haha But man, I'm gone for barely a month and
you guys just totally change my room!!
Gregory
is doing awesome!!!! He actually likes to be called Gregory. I love
that man so so much!!! He was my very first, real lesson and he is just
really, really wants to be baptized and go to the temple and change his
life so much!! It's so amazing to see that! We actually did a church
tour with him a few days ago and he felt the Spirit so much!! We
explained the importance of the sacrament and what baptism means! We
showed him a couple of pictures in the church and he was saying that he
felt a little weird but super good and happy when we were going through
the church!! We explained that he was feeling the Spirit! He loved it
and he came to church yesterday!! He understands everything and is so
excited to learn more!!
We
are also teaching this other family!! Kat and John! They are awesome!!
We hope they continue to have lessons with us. They are very curious
about knowing what we believe in and how to come closer to Christ!!
This
week has been a little different as we have had quite a few exchanges
but it's been super cool to be with different elders and to see
different areas!! I still haven't seen an alligator but I really am
looking forward to it!! And hey, my address is 529 S Parsons Ave
Brandon, Florida Apartment #410 so send me whatever you need!! And hey,
could you send me a long sleeve shirt that's the same as those nice
shirts that I have?!! I need a long-sleeve shirt for my suits-
President's request (for all missionaries)!
I
love it out here! It's amazing!! I love teaching and contacting new
people!! Christ really does live and this is His church. He really
talks to living prophets today!!! I know we are all children of God and I
am so happy I get to teach people that don't know that yet!! Love you
all!!!! Thank you so much for all you guys do!!
Love, Elder Cahoon
