speaking of missionaries...

My own missionary Jack is doing GREAT!
I have tried for two days to upload photos he has sent with no luck? I don't know why but blogger will not upload them... aargh!
He is on the homeward stretch now (less than 7mo. to go) and working hard feeling the end is near.
I LOVE having a missionary.
I have come so far since missionary Brian.
Jack is in Aracaju Brazil- above Rio on the coast. He is very happy & today teaching a Zone conference. (where all the missionaries in the region get together.) He is loving this opportunity & has made a slide show & dresses up for his presentations. Last month he was dressed up as a Book of Mormon character & this month he will do the same. So fun - so positive. He has grown up so much. His purpose,"to help the other missionaries get excited & stay positive about the work."
Today he is teaching about the importance of the Book of Mormon. How teaching with the Bible & Book of Mormon is so important. He is also teaching about the importance of baptism. He said his companion & he borrowed baptismal clothes (white clothes) from the building & took pictures for their slide show of them doing everyday things (shaving, cooking, reading, etc) in the baptismal clothes- meaning they should always be working toward & living up to their baptismal covenants. He says the pictures are really fun - but get the point across in a way that is not boring. I LOVE IT.
So creative? WHO is this kid--
wow
Having a missionary is really the best- I can see how much he has learned to rely on the Holy Ghost to guide his every move. It is such a testimony to me of how powerful that can be. I am grateful for this experience. I want the Holy Ghost to guide my every move. How am I living up to my baptism covenants?
I guess I'm growing too!
