Hello Good People! It has been an absolutely amazing week.
Last week, I said that it was the best week of the mission... I dare say that
this week topped it and this is the best week of the mission. It just keeps
getting better and makes me so dang happy. The Lord has truly blessed us and
the amazing people in Woodbridge in this work. First off, I hope you are all
doing well this wonderful Christmas season. I would invite all of you to look
at The #LightTheWorld calender for the month of December and serve others
remembering the true meaning of Christmas!
I never know where to begin. The mission is truly
incredible. So incredible I wake up and forget I am even on a mission some
times. The time has flown by and I am continuing to do my best to enjoy each
day. I love it and am so thankful to be a missionary. Its beginning to get to
the point where when I look at the grand scheme of things, it is beginning to
sound short. All sorts of weird feelings. I love this missionary service. As
December 1st came, Elder Miller and I did our best at serving others and just
looking for opportunities to serve others. It has been a humble experience and
has really made me feel gratitude and helped me remember the true meaning of
Christmas. I hope you can all do the same.
An update on our investigator Sheca Lovett! She is doing
awesome and is excited for her Baptism on the 23rd of December! She has
continued to read The Book of Mormon and has seen the Lord's Hand and light in
her life. She said that all of it has made her have a much clearer mind and she
is experiencing so much more joy! I am so happy for her! We got to meet her
cute children! She has a daughter who is 8 years old and a cute son named DJ
who is 3. They all were able to come to church with us on Sunday. They all
loved it. Sheca even bore her testimony during Sacrament meeting and it was a
humbling experience as she bore powerful testimony of the trials in her life
and how the Book of Mormon and this church has brought her closer to Jesus
Christ and she has felt the Holy Ghost in her life. She is incredible. I love
getting to meet with her and I know that my testimony has grown because of
hers.
Sunday was a day of miracles. At church as well as Sheca and
her famly, 3 other investigators (from a Less-active family) came to church! I
am so thankful for being patient with the Lord and for his blessings helping
the work progress here in Woodbridge. I know that it is all on his time. Please
continue to pray for Sheca and her children.
I am thankful for all of you and I know that The Savior
lives. I know that this is His church and His glory, I would like to invite all
of you to serve someone each day. I know that as we serve people each day we
will draw closer to our Savior Jesus Christ. He is the true meaning of Christmas.
I love all of you and I love this mission and short time serving the Lord. I
hope you all have a great week and I thank you all for being great examples to
me!
Love,
Elder Carson Junk
