Family,
We got a visit from our Mission President, President Cannon and his wife. They came all the way up to Val D'or to inspect our apartment, and to interview us. My favorite quote from Sister Cannon is "Well, I can see you've cleaned up very well here, but that's not what concerns me, the fact that I have to walk uphill to get to the kitchen sink is a little disconcerting." That and the hotwater toilet and the broken door frames and locks and some other nonsense...President Condemned our apartment, and told us to start looking for another one. Ah.
Well, another week full of tracting and service. We actually tried many different service centers here in Val D'or, but none of them want Missionaries serving the community. Strange. Ah well, we still have some more places to hit. I can't wait until we attend the "Emo Anonymous" meetings. What better opportunity to share the uplifting joy of eternal happiness?
Things are going well, we had a part member family come, the member always tries to bring her children and her sister's children. We had an 11 year old boy ask for a book of mormon and to learn more. He said he knew what he learned in primary was true, because of the warmth in his heart and the Holy Ghost.
When the little boy walked into church, he didn't even know who Jesus was. Just goes to show, that age is not a determining factor of spiritual maturity. This young boy is ready for the gospel. I am excited to see it continue with him.
Well, Tracting has never been the same, we continue to have uplifting encounters wherever we go. This is a blessing, amazing.
I better get going, there isn't much else to say anyways.
Peace be the journey,
Elder Holm
