Book of Mormon Testimonies

HEYYYY EVERYONE!!

Another full week. A mission is definitely the most exhausting thing I have ever done in my life. HAHA BUT I LOVE IT!! I gave the prayer in sacrament meeting yesterday in all Spanish! I thought it went pretty well. I am starting to love doing little things like that to get me out of my comfort zone. It helps me to recognize that I am growing, learning and getting stronger everyday. Also the fact that I'm doing my best to surrender to gods will.

EVERYONE! The BOOK of MORMON is so important. I would love it if all of you could send me your testimonies of the Book of Mormon and how you gained one. I want to hear of all the different ways the spirit testifies of truth so I can better help my investigator recognize answers to prayers. PLEASE, I would appreciate it!! Consider this verse, D&C 4:For behold the field is white already to harvestand lohe that thrusteth in his sickle with his might, the same layeth up in store that he perisheth not, but bringeth salvation to his soul.

This week I learned that the Book of Mormon is the sickle in this verse. The instigators that embrace the book of Mormon are that ones that are ready and white. So in order to harvest the lords crop and help as many people as I can, I need to have an even stronger testimony of the book of Mormon. Hearing from you I believe will help a lot. I already know that the Book of Mormon is true but hearing from you will allow me to help them. If my investigators never gain a firm testimony of the book of Mormon it will be so much harder for them to last in the church. It may even be impossible!

This week was wonderful though! We met some very prepared people, and I believe they are white. I could just see the acceptance and light in their eyes when we talked about the book of Mormon. We have two investigators set on date to get baptized on the 29th of this month. However, in order for this to happen we need a miracle. The both are prepared, both keeping our commitments, both are amazing, BUT THEY WORK ON SUNDAYS so they can't come to church!!! ahhhh that is the hardest thing. They both want to go to church, but they need to provide for their families so it's difficult. Right now, I don't see a way to get them to come to church, but I know god does. I know if we use the book of Mormon we will be able to meet their needs. I pray they will be prepared for the 29th.

Oh another cool thing I learn this week was how to remember things better, like names and stuff. I was reading in the scriptures about the holy ghost and I had the prompting, "listen with your heart, not your mind." So when someone tells me their name, I shouldn't be thinking so much about memorizing their name I should be listening with my heart and actually caring about what their name is and who they are. 
HAHA its just a thought but it's kind of cool
AHH I love you all, but I am running out of time
Hold to the Rod, the word of God, The BOOK of MORMON!!!!

con amor,

Elder Fuller
