(Elder Putnam)
So I’m going to attempt to summarize 2 big weeks in one
Email in 15 minutes.
Christmas was awesome. Inviting people to church was so fun,
but so unfruitful. Despite that, there were still like 50 people who came to
church. All time high.
We spent Christmas eve night with the Ščerbeņini family and
the Bergesons. It was awesome!
We stayed inside on Christmas which made it go by a little
boringly, but still got to talk to family all day. (We were counselled to stay
inside by our Mission President).
The following week, people were a lot less open to talking
with missionaries. No real surprise. But Markuss was baptized!!! Elder Beebe
got to drive down and participate in the ordinance. It was really cool to see.
We ended by driving up to Rīga to celebrate the New Year with other
missionaries. Then we stayed up there for Zone Conference and visa work. Zone
Conference was hype and we were all edified.
The amazing thing was that we came back to Liepāja and still
were so effective. We had 3 new friends in 3 days. Doesn't sound like much, but
its darn cold out here and that doubled our area book. Looking forward to a
lesson every day with a friend next week (mind blown). We are also meeting with
a Baptist preacher. The Baptist preacher who's church building is down the
street from ours is either gonna bash the crap out of us or is gonna turn into
the most amazing strength Liepāja has ever seen. Wow.
Anyways thats a decent summary of what has happened
recently. Remember that you are all children of God. He loves you and He's got
your back.
