One of the highlights of the week was that Randy came to church! Randy is the husband of a recent convert, and now we are working with him. He was a little hesitant to come to church, but he did and he loved it! He liked how everyone was so friendly and he loved the Sunday School class. He also attended a baptismal service and loved that, too!
We had Stake Conference with Elder Pearson and Elder Pimentel of the Seventy two weeks ago. It was super awesome. Elder Pimentel shared the story of Jesus' birth, as well as the parable of the Good Samaritan, with a focus on the two innkeepers. He challenged us to look at ourselves and ask ourselves if we were a Luke 2 or a Luke 10 innkeeper. Do we introduce ourselves to new people at church? Do we invite them to sit with us? Or do we keep to ourselves? He urged us to be Luke 10 innkeepers. I know as a missionary, it helps a new person at church feel much more comfortable when other members welcome them and introduce themselves.
The Church is true!
Elder Tobler
