Book of Mormon 3 Nephi 5: 13


Behold, I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I have been called of him to declare his word among his people, that they might have everlasting life.

Missionary work is the most important thing we can do because it allows God to touch the hearts of All of his children.

December 11, 2017 
   This week was interesting but good! It was interesting because we never really have a regular schedule as ZL's.  As a mission we made some awesome goals to help people, as many people as we can, to come unto Christ and grow their faith in him. So Anziano Belucci and I decided to do  mini trainings on the goals with the Districts, that way they are more involved. It turned out super good! Everyone in the Zone is pumped and ready to work hard! 
  Tuesday we had our DDM in Catenzaro then the next day we went to Taranto and had a DDM there, it was like a 2.5 hour drive so I've actually spent a lot of time in a car this week which feels super weird.
  This week has been full of finding! We have been talking to so many people and showing the new Christmas video. So that has been pretty fun. We have had a lot of awesome conversations.
  The members here in Cosenza are awesome! We got invited over for pronzo randomly a couple of times this week it was sweet! I'm really excited for Christmas here! We only had to make food for ourself one time this week. We taught this guy named Francesco this week and that was pretty sweet. He invited us to play tennis  and wants to start playing tennis with us on Mondays now.  He is a really cool guy and is interested to learn more about the Gospel.
  This week I was asked to give a talk in church on missionary work and it went pretty well. The topic was "Missionary Work, the Greatest and Most Important Duty is to preach the Gospel". My testimony grew as I prepared for this talk. In everything we do and teach as missionaries the first point is always, God is our loving Heavenly Father. In the guide to the scriptures it says-
"The greatest example of God’s love for His children is found in the infinite Atonement of Jesus Christ." The whole point of missionary work is to invite people to live the Gospel of Jesus Christ; In doing so they partake of the power of Jesus Christ though his atonement. They partake of the greatest gift of love that God as ever given us! Missionary work is the most important thing we can do because it allows God to touch the hearts of All of his children. I know that God is real, that he loves us and that Jesus Christ is our savior. In the name of Jesus Christ Amen. I hope you all have a great week!!
