Oct 20
October…. Is almost Gone.
Where in the world did it all go? Halloween
is right around the corner. My birthday, Thanksgiving, Christmas, oh my! People
ask how long I have been out and I hate hearing the number that comes out. This
time goes by too fast. I just have to keep my nose in the work! It was another
great week here in the Kennesaw Mountain Ward (it was weird to be back, but I
love it!). None of us will be transferred which is a bonus! Good things are to
come!
Up: I have my incredible companion back with
me! We did back to back week long exchanges, but Elder Kennedy parachuted out
into Carrollton. We did work here, he did work out there. Many lives were
changed! President Harding is called of God! I am so blessed to serve alongside
him! He has helped me see my potential and continually reach it! Incredible
companions make a huge difference too!
Up: Krysta will be baptized Tuesday! It will
be such an incredible thing to witness! I know that was likely a reason why I
came back to Powder Springs! God’s timing is perfect; his placement is perfect,
which makes sense because He is perfect! Perfect love casteth out all fear :)
Down: My weight keeps going down, does that
count? Because there really is no downside to serving a mission, and with an
eye of optimism, all things are the best!
Up: My miracle for y’all would have to
be our next door neighbor, who found us! About 3 weeks ago, she began speaking
to her supervisor, who is a member of the church. She had many conversations
with him about the church’s beliefs. He finally gave her a Book of Mormon and
was soon after promoted, and she has not seen him since. She moved into our place
two weeks ago, and needed to borrow a screw driver for some things she was
trying to hang. We started talking with her, and she pulled out the Book of
Mormon. We find out she has been searching for truth since she was 14! She
loved the Restoration and also the First Vision! Chaqita is incredible! She
accepted to be baptized on the 8th of November!
That is about all I have for you! God is
good! The Gospel is true! Thanks for all that you do! Who would have knew that
I would be far from you?! Sorry, got a little carried away there. Case in
point, thanks for all that you do for me! I truly appreciate it all! I wish
y’all the best of week! I love you all so much! Have another blessed up week!
Love,
Elder Dallan Barnes
I recently lost my mood ring, and I just
don’t know how I feel about that???
If it’s in your heart, you’ll do your part.
