Lincoln Mission September 3-9 2024

 













Well, this week was another good one and we saw a lot of success! We're working hard to meet our goals and improve


Lots of fish
Our district president gave us a ton of fish to just give to people around the island, so we spent a good hour handing them out to whoever came to our minds. It was an amazing experience to see how grateful they were. The only problem is that when you hand out free stuff, word gets out, so we had a some people randomly come up and take fish. Hopefully they needed it. Overall, great experience.

The boys
We've been finding some great kids recently and a lot of them have a ton of potential. They like to learn, they come to church, etc. Two of them recently asked us if they could get baptized. That's never happened to me. 

Other highlights
- made some videos
- ate lots of spam
- primary was wild
- talked in church again
- lots of service

Spiritual Thought

Mosiah 2:17
"And behold, I tell you these things that ye may learn wisdom; that ye may learn that when ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God."

I've learned a lot from this scripture and have realized that living it offers lasting happiness. I've developed a great love for these people and in doing so an even greater love for God. He cares so much about these kids in the corner of Panamá. He loves them just as much as He loves me. Being able to serve them and at the same time serve God is an amazing blessing. Just serve. You'll be happier.
