Heia alle sammen!
Well, I did not get an elephant hair like Tarzan but we did find one in Moss this week which was kind of fun haha:). Here's the week!
- This week we had dinner with a family friend, Kjell also known as Eddie! He is in the ward that I serve in now, so it was super fun to see and catch up with him:). I also got to see some more familiar faces at church which was also super fun! The branch president and his wife from Bodø were in Moss and so I got to see them and then also one of the young adults that I served around when I was in Oslo:). So it was a fun week seeing some people again:).
- We were out talking to someone on the street this week and this one guy we started talking to actually had met missionaries a while back and gotten a Book of Mormon from them. We asked him what He thought and he said he hadn't read it in a while, but thought he probably should after meeting us so I guess we'll see how that goes:).
- Got to join a lesson with one of the Elder's friends on Sunday which went really well! She is super sweet and we ended up talking about baptism towards the end and she seemed very open to the idea so I guess we will see what happens at our next lesson:).
This week my comp and I were approached by a man who had some questions about our church. We did our best to answer his questions but by the end he was not convinced of the Book of Mormon and Joseph Smith. I've realized more and more that it's not always easy for people to just simply believe that Joseph was a prophet and that through God's power he was able to translate the Book of Mormon, Another Testament of Jesus Christ. With that in mind, I was reading in 2 Nephi 31-33 this week and in chapter 33 it mentions so much about Christ and that these are His words.
"If ye shall believe in Christ ye will believe in these words, for they are the words of Christ, and he hath given them unto me; and they teach all men that they should do good." (Verse 10)
When it comes down to it, the only question that matters is if you believe in Christ. If one does, that is what allows us to believe in His words whether they come from one part of the world or the other, nevertheless with both we can know that He is the Christ. I know that Joseph Smith was a prophet and translated the Book of Mormon through God's power and because of that we can learn even more about Christ.
Glad i dere! Have a great week!
Kia Kaha and just keep swimming:)
