Elder Larsen Servin' in the South: Share the Light!

Hey everyone!

This week we had another great week of work here in Jackson! We were able to see a lot of good things. A big lesson that was learned is that God places people in each others paths to help them in their lives. We saw that a few times this week. Sister Thorton was able to share how she was thinking about her conversion story and all that happened to her earlier this week and then was able to share it with one of our investigators later in the week. They were able to relate and have a lot of the same thoughts and actions. Also, Brother Hansen was able to share that in his testimony on Sunday. He and his family recently switched units because of the boundary change. They will be able to come in and bless the lives of others in the branch!

Also, I don’t remember if I told you or not but the branch building was broken into 2 weeks ago. They stole a few things. But luckily the show must go on and because the work is true, nothing will be able to stop it.

D&C 121:33- How long can rolling waters remain impure? What power shall stay the heavens? As well might man stretch forth his puny arm to stop the Missouri river in its decreed course, or to turn it up stream, as to hinder the Almighty from pouring down knowledge from heaven upon the heads of the Latter-day Saints.

We didn’t travel at all this week. We were in Jackson all week. The weather here has resulted in a whole lot of rain the past 4 days. Its been a constant rain haha... Our investigators are doing great! We had 5 people come to church yesterday which is awesome!! We are starting transfer planning tonight since this upcoming week we will be having Elder Arnold touring our mission and we will be traveling to Zone Conferences with him! This week is going to be an interesting one!!

We have shared the Light the World with a lot of people down here. The Christmas season is awesome, I'm grateful for this time of year everyone just seems happier!! I am grateful for the support I have at home, its sad to think that some people are out here and don’t have any support!

Love you all!
