Whats up family? I sure hope all is well back in Utah (and NM). I am so thrilled to see all of my best friends and cousins serving missions. Its truly the best isn't it?
This week was super slow at first but at the end of the week we found a total of 6 new investigators! I am so excited that the work is progressing here in Dublin. The people here are amazing. They are mostly crazy but still amazing. They will offer us water and food all the time. I have never been rejected in a rude way on my mission. Yeah, they are that nice.
Here are the highlights of the week:
Tuesday: We had our first Zone Conference with President Lindhardt and wow I just love him so much. He is SO funny. President Lindhardt and President Salisbury are two completely different Mission Presidents but its cool because they hold the same keys and the same love for us. I am so grateful to have two different Mission Presidents. At Zone Conference I learned that I really need to do better at being bold. Because as a missionary you can't be a softie about things. You have to tell people that, "We are the missionaries from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and we share a message that this is Jesus' full and true gospel on this earth and that this church had been restored through a Modern-Day Profit named Joseph Smith..." And then they will feel the Spirit and be baptized. Simple huh? (um no)
Wednesday: We have Sister Bandy (our German investigator) her German Book of Mormon and she is SO excited to read it! We also found Jamie and she is a new investigator. She has cancer so she is kind of depressed but good thing that this gospel is a message of peace and hope right? She said that she would continue to learn if her husband approves...:/
Thursday: We had a rockin companionship study where we role played door approaches. It was a lot of fun because we would dress up and pretend to be a different person each time we would knock on the door. It was lots of fun:)
Sunday: We had an awesome Sabbath. In Sacrament meeting, Brother McCoy gave a talk about faith and here are some things that stuck out to me: "Faith with out works is dead. True faith is focused in and on our Lord Jesus Christ and always leads to action. The great test of this life is obedience." After church we went out and found 5 other investigators. They are all so prepared and ready to hear the gospel.
I love you all so much. Thank you for your continued love, prayers and support. Also welcome home Sister Frame! I love and miss you!
Love,
Sister Rodabough
