Hey everyone!
P-days are such a blessing, man oh man! Ha ha this week it was much needed.
Anyways, how are all of you?
My new companion, Elder Herrera is a fire ball. He is from Logan Utah, and
is super pumped to be out here, I love it! We had an amazing first week
together, and he is an amazing missionary. His story of how he got out on a
mission really strengthened my testimony, and really made me think a lot as to
why I am really out here. His whole family converted when he was 14, and ever
since then nobody in his family was very active. He decided when he was 18 to
really figure out if the church is true so he decided to read the Book of Mormon
and know for him self what the truth was. He received his answer and ever since
has been gung ho about a mission. I cant even imagine what it would be like to
not have all of you back home supporting me in my decision to serve a mission.
How he does it is beyond me. But I am really happy to be serving with him, and
am really excited for the time that we have together.
Elder Herrera loves to tract. So we have put in a
lot of tracting this week. Heavenly Father really put him to the test at first,
to make sure he is really committed. His first door that he took was an old
lady that opened the door, looked at us, then just shut it without saying a
word, while the whole time Edler Herrera was trying to talk to her. The next
door, a woman answered and the only thing that he had time to say was hello
before she started screaming and swearing at us to get off of her door step. I
felt bad because so far on my mission I haven't ever had someone use the words
that that woman used, and he got it on his second door. But he didn't get
down on it, and he kept pushing forward with faith, and we were able to tract
into a couple new investigators that night.
Know that I love you all very much,
and I am so greatful to have all of you in my life. Thanks everything each one
of you do for this family. Love ya!
Love
Elder Bradley Dillard
