Week 20: You Gotta Have Faith

Hi everybody, 

I love all of your beautiful faces. This week has been really good. We have had some ups and downs this past few week, but things are mostly good. I'm so dang exhausted. Missionary work takes a lot out of you physically, mentally, and spiritually. It's so amazing to see the growth in myself and also in my companion. We have been really working hard to make sure we baptize this transfer, but it just hasn't been the right time. We are working really hard in our area and have some amazing great potentials. We are finding some really humble people lately, but at the same time they are very interesting people that have some significant obstacles to over come. We are praying to be able to find some one who is just waiting at the door for the restored gospel. We are navigating our way through a jungle of people to find them. 

Please pray for the area and also for the ward. They really struggle with missionary efforts and we are trying to help them help us! Haha. We love everyone so much and know they can accomplish this task. There are some amazing wonderful people in the ward! Please pray for Tim and Pamela. Please pray for Nina, Triva, and their daughter Shianna. They are the people we are teaching and we wish all of them can progress, be  humble, so they can receive the gospel in their hearts. Also, please pray for the Lunas family. They are less active. She struggles with some questions she has and we hope she can find the answers to them and resolve those doubts. 

I'm so glad I've learned how to resolve my questions and concerns. I have been studying, praying for answers to my questions, and what I have found is they always come. I testify that we need to have faith that we can figure things out for ourselves. We do not receive any witness until after the trial of our faith. Ether 12. I love this gospel and I love my Heavenly Father and his Son Jesus Christ with all my heart. I pray for miracles every day. It is hard out here to have success. I would appreciate it if you could help pray for the people in Kentucky to want to be baptized. It seems like everyone isn't ready yet or is not feeling the truth enough to want to change. I will just keep loving them. 

I love all of y'all and pray for you to be watched over. Talk to you next week!

Love, 

Elder Greenlaw
