Dear People of Earth,
We have a member in our group
that´s very funny. She´s our Relief Society President. Her name is Sister
Anthony. She´s a very aggressive and hilarious persona. She was doing a deep
cleaning of the Church with her daughter and niece. She was complaining about
problems in her family life in a very funny way when she said, "I always
wanted to be a man, but the Lord didn´t let me. I wouldn´t have these problems
if I were the man in this relationship!" It doesn´t help that she already
has a deep manly voice.
This week there was a huge rain
surge from nothing. We entered a hair salon to teach an investigator family
when the tempest blew open the doors, flooding with rain. As the storm raged, I
saw that our investigators were very non-believing. They were really stubborn. I
was on an exchange with a new missionary that had arrived a week or two ago. He
said he was very confused by what the man was saying and didn´t know what to
say. I was talking with our leadership on the phone. The moment I disconnected,
everything clicked in my head, lining up perfectly. I tried teach him with a
calm conversation, but he was a very stubborn nonbeliever. I felt all my
spiritual preparation from my studies that day come flooding to the surface and
preached with great power. In spite of the great storm about us, as I testified
of the Restoration, it was as if time stopped for us. My companion later said
that he thought his Missionary Tag was burning, but it was the spirit within
his chest. He´d never felt the spirit so strongly before. I had never taught
the restoration before quite like that and was a great testimony of the truth
of this work.
Never doubt. There´s no reason
to. This work is true and that´s all there is to it. Dare to be Mormon.
Love,
Elder Engle
