Empty Houses

I guess I'll begin with the bad news first. Our appointment fell through. Its one thing for your investigator to tell you they don't want to meet with you. Its completely another, when they don't show up, and you had reminded them a day previous. It makes it more personal. When they call you or text you, and say something along the lines of "I can't meet this week." or "I'm not interested". At least you know they care, or they wouldn't tell you. But when you show up to their house, and they aren't there, you just feel sad. You feel disappointment. Especially when you were so stoked to teach them about the Gospel and how to have a happier life. But its okay. When they are ready, they will let us know.

Now, this next week, we get iPads in our mission! I am so excited. As one of the four Technology Specialists in our mission, I get the training first so I can go throughout the mission and train them on how to use their iPads effectively and efficiently on a mission. Technology has always been my sort of thing. I've always been extremely good at figuring stuff out. I am grateful for the opportunity that the Lord has given me to help others come unto Him through technology!

  1. Hang in there Elder. It's ok to feel disappointed, but realize that they have to make their choices. You are doing your part by providing the opportunity.

    You rock Elder Armstong!
