Time flies by so fast. This weekwa s my birthday :) I treated myself to a nice dinner at a restaurant like one that I would go to for my birthday in the states. :) It was called Shakey's. I missed the salad more than I did the Pizza. I also bought myself a nice Banana Split :) It was better than DQ. It was amazing :) I wouldn't normally say that because everything is better in America! I am a little proud about being an American, but it is true :) On my birthday, I almost got into a fight with a drunk without even doing anything. But I listened to the spirit and didn't say a word. (Which is not normal for me!) Thankfully nothing happened. :)
As I look at the 20 years that I have lived, I am filled with just gratitude for parents leaders, teachers and bishops who the Lord has placed in my life to shape me to the man I am now am and will become. :) I can not name you all but you know who you are. I thank you sooooooo much, my prayers go out to each of you :)
Our work this week has been amazing :) Our area is doing great. We have been really working with the Less Actives and have found that most of them have PM families. That's hitting 2 birds with one stone. We have 11 new investigators and had some success this Sunday at church because a whole LA family came to church with their investigator son, named I :) We also have just been working really hard on lessons with a member present. I can tell that this week is a start to much success because we were able to find and teach many new investigators. Heavenly Father answered my prayer because ever since I have been on a mission I have wanted to find and baptize a whole family. This week I think I have found that family :) We went to just do a member visit and happened to run into the member's brother who also lives at the house :) Things are just looking up :)
Things could not get any better :) Even though I have been away from home for a while (a long while), I am still happy :) He gives me the strength everyday to do his work. I am physically exhausted every night but I wake up with new strength and power every morning :) I love you all :) I hope all you youth that are reading this are preparing to go on a mission :) Its the best ever :)
Thanks for the Birthday Wishes :)
Love Elder Bigelow :)
