Monday, August 30th

Well, this may be my last week emailing, seeing as next week is a holiday, I'm not sure if the places will be open to email.

Well, this week went great for the most part. We had a LOT of member-present lessons, and a lot of new investigators. There's one family that we've been working with that we're extremely excited about. Last week the two boys came. This week, their mom, little sisters, and their little sister's friend came. Next week, the dad should be coming (he had work yesterday, so he couldn't make it). Unfortunately, I won't be here to see them get baptized, but they're a great family that really is trying to do the best that they can.

This letter home this week is probably going to be really short. I really don't have a lot to say.
This really is the true church of Jesus Christ. Through His atoning blood, and in no other way, can we be cleansed from sin. As we are obedient to the gospel, and we do everything that we can to follow Him, we find true happiness. I am grateful for this opportunity that I've had to represent Him. He is the way to salvation. There is no greater work in this world.

Love,
Elder John H. Meservy
