Hey Everyone, 2-27-12

I am doing great this week. It was another great week. Those who were baptized all came and were given the gift of the Holy Ghost. We had a baptism of Sister Peace she was one that has been coming to church all the way back since September and everyone thought she was a member, but wasn't so we were asked by the Bishop to get her baptized and into the church so that's what we did. The work has been going amazing the Lord truly does bless his servants if they work hard. We were blessed with some wonderful referrals from brother John Mbira and he showed us a wonderful family.
We weren't able to see the wife and one of the kids. We did see the husband and the other 5 kids they brought so that was great! I was so grateful for his efforts. The ward has been super excited for missionary work and things are going very well. One other great thing that happened this week is through a miracle a recent convert, Eric was finally able to come back to church! I was so excited to see him there it was such a blessing from the Lord I have been seeing him like once every week and so have other missionaries and it just took a little perseverance and love and he came to church it was such a wonderful blessing to see him there. Another guy named Godfry was able to come and participate and it was awhile for him too. Even though it rained and people normally don't show up when it rains we had a lot of people come to church and that was so awesome. I am grateful for Heavenly Fathers tender mercies each day and how much he truly loves each and every single one of us and how he is willing to bless us and strengthen us. I love serving the Lord it brings so much joy into our lives and so much peace. Not only into ours but into others as well and that is something I see everyday is how the gospel truly does bring so much peace, love, and joy into all of our lives. So I got to get the chance to work with Elder Kasue this week in our area and it was so good that guy has so much love for everyone he sees and he has helped me so much and one other thing he helped me with was having lots of fun and just smiling and waving at everyone and that is something I needed cause sometimes I get caught I have to get there. I am smiling, but not saying hi to everyone and see how they are and I noticed how much better it was to smile and on your way just say "Hi how are you?" and everyone here just smiles back usually some don't, but that's OK. It was so cool to see so I learned to just on my way to an appointment to say hi to everyone and make them smile because it truly makes you smile and the next person it was really good experience. I love being in the service of my fellow man and my Heavenly Father and It has been such a blessing to be here and to do the little I can now. it was great to hear from you and how everyone is doing thanks for all you do I love you all.
Love Elder Hildreth
