Well my second transfer is complete! I have to say this one was a lot funner then the last. I am really going to miss Elder Kleiman. He has taught me so much and we have had a lot of fun and will always have some good memories. I don't think we argued once in the last six weeks which is pretty impressive! It has been hard killing him off because It’s hard to think about home. But it made me realize how lucky I am to be a missionary!
We have been sick this last week. It has not been fun being sick my first time away from home. It’s so hard because we want to go out and work but we don't want to make our investigators sick because then it will slow down the work. But we still managed to have a few lessons with some people when we were feeling up to it and over all still had a pretty good week.
We went
to the members, the Morgans, house this week for a bonfire. Bro. Morgan is an
awesome guy! He is a vet and he is the
person that cuts our hair. He is actually really good at it (not as good as
Makayla! ;) But we had a huge fire and we had a lot of our investigators there
which was really fun and very productive for them!
The biggest
thing I learned from this last transfer is, to rely on the Gospel to bring us
true happiness. I have always kept myself busy with hobbies all my life that
have made me happy. Since I came on a mission, I never realized that those
hobbies and activities that brought me happiness were only making me
temporarily happy. When you give up everything and give your life to the Lord,
that is when you learn to rely on the gospel to bring you a kind of happiness
that you cannot find anywhere else.
So....
I got a call from my mission President this last week with some big news. He
asked me to be a trainer!! I am really nervous though. I just finished my own
training last week and now I'm turning around and training a brand new
missionary.. It’s a lot of pressure, but I hope I can pull it off. President
told me he wants me to train him to have the same characteristics that I have
because he wants more missionaries that are ready to work hard. I thought that
was really cool! We will see how it goes, I guess! Pray for me so I don't mess
this kid up!
Thank you all
for all the awesome support I enjoyed getting my packages this week they made
me extra happy! I love you all and hope everyone the best!
Keep The Faith,
Elder Kaleb Bingham
