What up Dad? (at least I think this was Dad's email haha)
Thank you for the score list. That was awesome. It was also awesome to hear
that the Chargers have a chance at the Super Bowl. I hope they win it haha. I
didn't know they picked up Manti Teo though so that is awesome too. They have
a great defense I am sure. I bet it was fun to build the 7ft snow man too. It
probably looks sweet up on the mountain with blue sky below it. Is that the
tallest one we built yet? I had forgotten that we did that every year haha. That
was always fun. What are you going to do when you are like 80 years old? Are you
still going to build a snowman haha? It is a fun family tradition though. It
will be fun to help you guys again on that when I get home.
Hey, the Sunnyside ward has 9:00 church too haha. I don't go at 9:00 though.
We are there at 7:30. Meetings before church are soooooooo fun haha.
This week was an awesome one teaching-wise. We got 4 new investigators! I
was so happy haha. We had an awesome lesson yesterday night with one of our
investigators. Her name is Cheyanne. I think I already told you about her but
she is 14 so it is like I am teaching Sarah haha. Well, we taught her about the Holy Ghost since when she came to the last half of church, afterwards she said
she felt like she needs to be baptized. We told her that was the Holy Ghost and
she though that was cool. She is going to start reading the Book of Mormon and
we are going to put her on date tonight. It should be awesome. We have been
waiting for her to get an answer if she wanted to get baptized for a while, and
she got it haha. It was awesome. That was just one of the lessons that we
taught. One of the new investigator's names is Maria. She is an African American
woman who has a couple kids. She hasn't had much of a religious background but she
wants her kids to grow up well and not have the life she had when she was
growing up. She was very interested in coming to church, but her car broke down,
which seems to be a problem up here alot. Cars break down so our investigators
don't come to church. (Satan must be good at breaking cars haha). Well, she said
she is very interested in coming next week so I hope she comes. It was really
just an awesome week for me. I have been working on loving the people more and I
can already tell a difference. Thanks for the advice Dad. I love the people
of Sunnyside. When you love the people, it also makes it easier to go out and
serve them. Charity is very important in missionary work. I think it will always
be a struggle of mine that I will have to work on, but I pray for an eye of
charity everyday now, and it seems to help a lot.
Well it sounds like your week was fun and busy. I hope work is going good
still. How is everybody else doing?
It was great to get to share a little bit from this week with you guys. I
love being a missionary. Thank you for the sacrifice that you guys go through to
keep me out in the field. I love you all sooo much!
Love, Elder Sedlacek
