Bomb Diggity


Dear family!

This week was bomb diggity! We taught so much! T. N. and his sister A. (15 and 10) are preparing to be baptized next month. Their parents are members but hadn't gone to church in a long time. But they came this Sunday and it was sweet! They also have 2 adorable little kids, M. and K. (3 and almost 2). I love that family! :D We are going over there tonight to teach the word of wisdom and the Plan of Happiness. 

Man that worldwide mission president’s seminar broadcast was awesome! I absolutely loved it! We were all required to be there, and it was so worth it! I love how much emphasis the Lord and His servants are putting on member/missionary unity. The work really goes better when the members and the missionaries do it together. It is just awesome being a missionary. I love it more than anything! 

Our zone here is tiny- 2 districts. We have our district, Elder Thompson as District Leader still, and we have the Union Elders and the Union Senior Couple in our district. Then we have the Gaffney district, with Elder Bagley (whom I came out here with from the MTC) as district leader. They have Gaffney Elders and Sisters, and the Cowpens Elders. All 3 of their companionships are training. Pretty cool being in such a small zone where we can really minister one-on-one with them. It's kind of hard to explain what responsibilities of different assignments are on missions. I will do my best to explain one day, but basically all we do is relay information from President Holm to the zone, and from the zone to President Holm via the assistants. That reminds me, this Wednesday Elder Cardon is coming with Elder Nair and me on an exchange (he is an AP, and he was my MTC comp. It'll be so fun to finally get to teach with that guy! :D ). 

Well that's about it for this week. I love being a missionary! I wouldn't trade a minute of it for anything! 

Love ya'll! 
Find someone to baptize this week! 
Baptize families! 

Elder Seaver
