This
has been another great week. Our two investigators with baptismal dates
are doing well, but they are progressing kind of slow and I don't know
if they will make it by the 23rd, which is their baptismal date. 조백열 (Jo
Baek-Yeol) is still struggling with Word of Wisdom. I know they will
make it to baptism, so if not on the 23rd, then definitely soon after.
They are amazing.
We also met with
another new investigator this week who is pretty amazing. His name is
김형호 (Kim Hyeong-Ho) and he is 72 years old! We met him on the street and
he is just a really sincere adorable old man who wants to follow Christ
and is willing to study and act in any way he needs to to do so. We set
a baptsimal date for December 8. I love teaching him.
I
have been doing well this week and have been thinking a lot about
progression and such. Something I feel like I have come to the
conclusion of again and again, especially on my mission, is that God
cares a lot more about us learning, growing, and gaining experience than
He does about most results. I also know that as we seek to improve and
progress, the only way to truly do so is through the atonement of Jesus
Christ. This morning I reviewed Ether 12:26. The closer we get to God,
the more we will realize our imperfections, but as we consider them as
opportunities identified to progress and then rely on the cleansing and
enabling power of the atonement through humility and faith, God can
really help us to be more than we could ever become on our own.
I
know that this really is God's work and that He really is such a real
part of it. Let's truly become a light to others and let the joy and
power of the Gospel shine!
I love you all!
Love, Elder Tolman
