Elder Langstons Report

Hey everybody,Well I´m sorry but I don´t have any exciting news for you this week. Not much is happening but we are just trudging along. I know its alright through. Things are supposed to happen when they are supposed to happen. Or maybe I just have to try even harder. Actually, something funny happened yesterday. A Bulgarian guy called us and said he wanted to meet with us. He spoke perfect english. We met him at a metro stop and he said he had met with some elders in switzerland where he has been living and he thinks its really interesting. As a matter of fact he said he wants to be a member and he wants to know what he needs to do to be baptized. Of course we told him! He doesn´t live in our area and he is going back to Switzerland but hey...its someone getting baptized! It made me happy yesterday. It shows me that people really are ready for the gospel and we just need to find them! I love teaching though. Even if they don´t accept it or want to listen, it gives me a feeling that is unmistakeably the Spirit. Its just pure happiness. Its like I have $100 dollar bills and I´m trying to pass them out to people. If they don´t want it, I´ll try someone else! When times get hard and not much is happening it is comforting to know that I have a testimony of the things I am teaching and everything is going to be ok. As for unimportant news, I sang in the ward choir yesterday in Sacrament meeting. The choir has three men in it. My companion, me and one other member. So I sang the tenor part haha. It was actually pretty fun! The ward I am in is also really getting into missionary work. Everybody wants to help and they are trying to include us missionaries in their activities. I´m so grateful to be in this ward. I hope I stay here this next transfer. I think I will because Elder Cranford has been here almost 7 months! Whatever happens happens. Thank you all for the support and encouraging words. I love the letters and emails. With God on our side, we cannot fail! I love you all.Love, Elder Langston
