Hello all of my dear friends and family,
I love all of you so much, each one of you has impacted my life for
good, I am so full of love this week, much more than usual, all I can
say is I love you and I thank each of you for changing my life for the
better. To all of you who are in so many different places throughout the
world, continue on being who you are, an example of the believers! May
Christ be with each of you!
This week has been one of the busiest weeks and one of the
best weeks of my entire mission! God is so good to me and I am thankful
for His love and tender mercies.
This past week was transfer week, Wednesday
morning I drove 4 missionaries to the check point in Helena, the
transfer van was running over an hour late but when it got there I
received my new Zone Leader companion Elder Wyatt who is from Washington
and has been out on his mission almost 8 months. I met him when he came
into the mission and we served in the same Zone together, he is a great
missionary and we are instant best friends.
He and I are companions
with Elder Doyle who has been out for 13 months and he too is a great
missionary who I know very well, I love him and appreciate his example
to me. The three of us are growing together and teach well in unity.
We all traveled back to Great Falls, got everyone on their way and then
drove to an appointment with a family in the Cascade Branch who live out
in the country, with the snowy, icy and muddy roads its a miracle our
Toyota Corolla made it to the house. Only 4x4s should have been able to
make it haha, but we indeed made it and taught this wonderful family and
committed their 10 year old son to be baptized on December 28th. We are excited for that! We then attended the Cascade Branch Christmas party.
Thursday
we drove to Helena again to pick up a brand new missionary who is being
trained in our Zone. I always love picking up new missionaries and
seeing the look on their faces, giving them a big hug to welcome them to
the MBM and tell them its going to be great! We got back from those
travels and had some good lessons that night!
Friday
we made a somewhat last minute decision to travel the Northern half of
our Zone and to interview each missionary, so we went on a 6 hour road
trip, stopping in all the towns where we have missionaries and
interviewing them. I always love being able to see all our missionaries,
to see the light of Christ in their eyes and to learn from them. We
made it home to GF just in time for the Two Rivers Ward Christmas party
which was a great time!
Then Saturday
was one of the best days I have had on my mission, we have 4 amazing
lessons and because of the tender mercies of the Lord, everything just
fell into place, we were able to meet all 4 appointments and the Spirit
was so strong in each lesson, it was truly a fabulous day!
One of the
lessons we committed a new investigator to be baptized in late January,
he is the most "golden" investigator I have ever had, he is awesome and
told everyone at church he is getting baptized.
Sunday
we split up to go to both Cascade and Two Rivers meetings and I went to
Two Rivers ward... We had 12 people there we had invited to come... The
most I have ever had in one Sunday.
It was just truly an amazing week.
I am thankful to be a missionary, I
pray I can be an instrument in the hands of the Lord, I bear you my
witness that God lives, He loves you and sent his Son, Jesus Christ to
this earth for you. Jesus Christ is the Savior of the world, He died for
you, He was resurrected and He lives for you. I invite all to come unto
Christ the Lord, come unto Him and through faith in Him, repenting, making
and keeping covenants and enduring to the end with the Holy Ghost at
your side.
This church is true, this is God's kingdom here on Earth,
come join now with us and know of the peace and happiness I have come to
know.
I love you, Merry Christmas!
Love,
Elder Aaron Organ
