Week 42

Hello everyone!

Welcome to the promised land of Damofalls:)  We worked hard this week and saw many miracles. 

-we were able to put one of our friends Tinotenda on date for baptism 

-we had more lessons than any other week

-we were able to find new friends to teach and they even came to church!

Spiritual Thought:

This week my companion and I have been studying a lot about Charity and Patience.  Something I have come to learn is that they go hand in hand.  Charity is the most pure and perfect form of love that we can have for someone.  It's the kind of love that God has for each one of us.  As we strive to develop this kind of love towards those we are surrounded by, we will be able to see them through God's eyes.  It will make it easier to love even those that are hardest for us to get along with because we will be able to see their potential as sons and daughters of God. 

I invite you to think of someone that you can develop patience and Charity towards and pray specifically for that person each day.  I promise that even though it may take time, you will begin to develop more love for them.
