Elder Roskelley: #76 New Years

Monday, January 5, 2015

Hello everyone,

I have been doing really good this week. Work was a little hard with New Year’s but we still had a good week. Monday last week we had a really good lesson with our new investigator and then we got a ton of rain. We had actually planned to go over to the other island in our zone so that we could do splits but we had to cancel that because of the storm. It ended up being okay anyway because on Tuesday my companion got sick, another stomach problem from the Philippines. On Wednesday we had a great lesson with a referral from one of our other investigators. They are doing good. Then in the evening for New Years Eve we got to watch how to train you dragon 2 and played mafia with our district. We also met a guy that is named Medio Capoy. If you translate that into cebuano it means "kind of tired." We also got some more rain. The rest of the days it was normal missionary work and then on Sunday we had 2 investigators come to church. This week has been amazing for relying on revelation. I have realized how much we need revelation and how hard we need to work so that the spirit will stay with us. I know that we will be very blessed for our obedience even if we don't immediately recognize the blessings.

Love you all,

Elder Roskelley
