Hey everyone,
I'm doing okay. I dont have corona. Sorry to all the people who live in Corona. And to all the people who live in areas affected by the disease...
Anyway, Life is pretty good. Missionary work took a turn for the more difficult when church got cancelled and Manila went on lock down, but we are still proselyting because there really is nothing more important than the news that Jesus Christ is our Savior and gave us a way to be made clean and free and safe. With that news we don't really need to fear anything other than our own unworthiness which, turns out, is solved by repenting and relying on Christ. So thats the message of the week. I like how in the Introduction to the Book of Mormon we read about how the Book of Mormon tells people what they need to go to find 'peace in this life and eternal salvation in the life to come.' That is the message. It is true. It is there for a reason to help us. That book is the key to peace in this life as we come to know Jesus Christ.
Last week we also had the super cool experience of getting Elder Taniela B. Wakolo of the area presidency to come speak to us. He shared a lot of doctrinal insights and a very powerful testimony of Jesus Christ. I am very grateful to him for that.
If you were wondering, I do have food storage, and yes it is 25 kilos (55 lbs) of rice. That should last two people a couple weeks.
I love you all
Stay safe
