Follow The Promptings

Here's what Elder Pinyon emailed me and reminder that I wouldn't be mentioning the whole email. Again, spelling mistakes isn't my fault. Also, I'm not mentioning the whole email.

Elder Pinyon emailed me with 2 emails this week.

Email 1:

"Hey the week has been good, except for Tuesday night, we actually had a serious storm the other night it was like a category 2-3 cyclone, it was so dangerous that the bomb sirens that only go off in movies went off, thought we were going to get bombed or something haha, than I found out 6 people were killed in the storm as well, so it was really dangerous, but all is good :D I know that the Lord looks over his servants and will protect them from danger. Not much else, except had transfer and I am staying in Göttingen for my 3rd transfer and with the same companion Elder Randall.

Elder Pinyon"

Email 2:

"I actually felt prompted to talk to these 2 guys as we were riding our bikes in a park and I pulled over and introduced myself and told them I was from the church and asked ``Werr ist Gott für Sie?´´ and they said ``Wir sprechen kein Deutsch´´ so I taught them about the book of mormon in English and gave them a copy. Use the pictures in the book of mormon to explain to people what it is and it really does work. Also follow the promptings of the spirit, that is really important."

Stay Tuned.

A Drummer Investigator

This may be the one of the shortest blog post.
Elder Pinyon mentioned a cool announcement through emails. Well to me, the email seems to be very exciting and I am happy to share it with you. I will reword it to have an understanding about the email says.
Anyway, Elder Pinyon got to play the drums recently with a guy who is the second best drummer in all of Germany and not only that; he is one of Elder Pinyon's investigators. How awesome is that?

I was so happy to read that, I am so proud of time that has been used wisely which is a good thing. As you may not notice, the blog is automatically on time zone of where Elder Pinyon is serving. Please be mindful about that.

Stay Tuned.

2 Investigators in 2 Days

It has been awhile to wait to get updates from Elder Pinyon, I was getting impatient and I was feeling a little frustrated that Elder Pinyon hasn't been emailing me. I understand when people serve their missions known as Missionaries, they do get busy and focus a lot of their time on their Missions. Sometimes, they do email other people and ran out of time.

Here's what Elder Pinyon emailed me and reminder that I wouldn't be mentioning the whole email. Again, spelling mistakes isn't my fault.

"Hey. This week has been amazing, in the last 2 days we have found 2 new investigators. We went to a few small dorfs this last week for some appointments, one is called Northeim, Friedland and also Rosdorf, the people are so friendly and lovely, I love the mission work here in Germany, it is amazing to see the German hearts really change because God is real there.

This week we also had Elder Dyches come and address us for our half mission conference. He really emphasised how important member missionary work is. One thing that I want to say to all my friends is work with the missionaries. Don't be scared to invite your friends to the Gospel, its only going to be the biggest blessing in their life and you will be giving them Eternal life. Salvation is not easy. You don't need to invite a friend to church, it could be as simple as inviting them over for dinner and having the missionaries there and just let your friends ask all the questions they want. Let them be in an environment that is comfortable for them. I can promise that when members work with the missionaries that our world membership will double in no time at all.

It has been really hot tho lately, about 40 degrees Celsius everyday, such beautiful weather :( But all is good just sweating it up and enjoying life. If we dont enjoy life than why live? I wouldnt trade anything for my life right now. Also one thing I learnt this week is to never be affraid, when you are affraid Satan controls you and takes over your body. I love you all so much and you are all in my prayers every night and day. Take care my dear friends and may God always be with you.

Elder Pinyon"

2 friendly reminders that Elder Pinyon's Birthday is on 29th of this month, and it would be great if you write a letter to him to wish him a "Happy Birthday" or through email to wish him a "Happy Birthday." I am sure he will appreciate it.

Another reminder that myself Megan Green, is updating the blog while Elder Pinyon is serving his mission. Both on Facebook and Blog is the Mission Photos.
