Not-so-weekly report of a moving van

So this is it. the first of the last. But I would just like to bare my testimony that I know that this church is true and that the only way to happiness is through Christ. I know that the spirit tells us what we need to know, and when and how to say it. He is our constant companion and will always want the best for us. I know these things not because of logic, or reason. Not because I am supposed to say these things, but because this has to be true. I know this because I have experienced it in my life and seen it in the lives of my investigators and members. This week was simple. We taught the word of God to people. I had a very interesting experience, well two, but on the same topic. One time my companion asked me to give him a blessing, and my comp was Chilean and very strict about spanish. SO the only thing I could do was trust in the spirit and say what he told me to. So I did, and I said things that I never would have said. The same thing happened in a leccion with an investigator i didn't know what to say, so I just said what the spirit told me to say and testified of Christ.I love you all and hope your week is awesome. 
Love E' Whetten

Oh and by the way, I went to a new sector for my last change.  I'm with the first person that I met on the mission. E' Despain. He's awesome.

Not-so-weekly Report of a MR Clean


So this week was, interesting. President Cook gave his last capasitation and we all ended up crying our eyes out. It was really good, but sad. Then yesterday and every other day this past week the Copa America we going on, so whenever Chile was playing the people disappeared. It was like magic. But in that time it we did a super cool contact in the street. She doesn't live in our sector, but we gave her a BOM and it was a really cool contact. Other then that all normal. I love you all and hope that your life is awesome. 
Love E' Whetten

Not-So-weekly report of Elder Whetton



I forgot to tell you guys about that. Or I did and I just want to tell it again, but I asked for some plaques and they sent them to me with Elder Whetton. I was just like NOOOOOOOOO, the curse has follow me to here. But anyways, this week has been pretty normal, nothing big or huge. WE have had alot of rain though, and that is always sucky. But I did find a cord for my camara, but this comp is slow, so I'll send pics next week

Not-So-Weekly Report of The Old Man in Blue Pj's


This week was a good week. We have started to teach the friend of Jeannot, which is super cool because we explain it doing our best to not do it very quickly or complicated, and anything that he doesn’t understand Jeannot explains in Haitian. So that’s super cool, we have like our personal translator. He also is learning Spanish really quickly, so that helps. It’s incredible. Other then that we are working with very few investigators, mostly less actives that we are trying to help to get back to church. some of them are just old and can't but most of them are just lazy, or don't understand what it is to be a member of this church, it’s not all sunshine and rainbows, it takes work. But the end is glorious. WE can literally become like our heavenly Father, but it take a struggle and trial, that’s just the way it is. But anyways, this week was good. Finding people, teaching the gospel, being awesome. Love you all and hope your week is glorious.

Not-So-Weekly Report from a Servant of the Lord.

This week was incredible. First Jeannot was baptized, I was smiling from ear to ear, and it was just incredible. Then Monday we had a presentation about Family History. IT was really good. The teacher went off on the subject of science and  God. Which is a topic that I love, just to see the paths of the Lord in the smallest of everything. Then she told us something that I will never forget. She said you have been set on a level and we can't look down. We need to stay on that level. It was just super cool. Then yesterday we had someone pretty much interrogate us trying to make us doubt our beliefs. We can't explain our religion with logic. We cannot prove our message with any science. It is something that is true, but you cannot explain it to someone that doesn't want to know. The saddest thing is that he thinks that by doing what he is doing he can have the same as us. That heaven is something easy, help people but nothing more. But it does not work like that, we have much more to do, and we cannot do that through any other way then through the priesthood of the Lord. I love you all and hope you have a wonderful week.

Not-So-Weekly report of MR Bilingual

This week has been really good, we are finding people like crazy, the only problem is keeping them. But thats the rule. But something cool that is happening is that we are preparing Jeannot, our Haitian friend, for baptism this Sunday. He is so cool, and literally how everything happened is a miracle. with him not speaking spanish and everything, with his house (i'll explain later) and just everything. Its so cool to see the hand of God in this work. Other then that, just some crazy contacts and finding people that want to listen to us. I love you all and hope you have a wonderful week.
