My name is Earl ...

I AM ALIVE...

So I am not too sure what to say except, the mission life is great! #blessbless... I am now the only Poly here eena di Belize... #LastSurvivor.  Sitani has now finished his mission and Lino, Maliga and Fiu are all back now. I'M ALL ALONEEEEE! Haha!

 

So then on Tuesday we went to the mainland because Hurricane Earl was coming to Belize, and so this past week we have been in Belmopan. It has been so bless because me and Scott were able to be in a trio with our other best friend Aillery, who also started her mission with us. It was our dream come true to all be together again.

 

Man, Belmopan got smashed up too... I could not sleep all night because it was so baaaad. But I was grateful to be with my two MTC sisters. The next day we went out and gave service to the people of Belmopan who lost their homes and whose houses flooded...

 

The Belmopan sisters house only had little flooding and the electricity was out for half the day but the most important part was that we were all safe.

The people of Belize are so great! And are so positive, they have nothing but give so much. I love being here and serving.

 

I have been blessed with the BEST MISSION EENA DI WERLDDDD!!!!! But yes, the church is true, keep on keeping on. Have faith through ANYTHING (even hurricanes hahaha)... that’s when our faith is tested the most, when Satan throws everything that he can at us... But be steadfast and immovable! Build your faith on the rock of our redeemer who is Christ! (Helaman 5:12)..

 

I love you guys heaps.  Have a good week.

 

 

Don’t miss me too much, I have 5 weeks left :'(  of work to do </3

 

Sister Loli

We are all fighting individual battles ...

Man!!! I am on an emotional roller coaster right now.  I know the time is coming close but I am working hard. We are throwing fire...

 

I hope you know I am okay. Don't worry too much about me. Me and Sister Scott are working our butts off!

 

We have so many potential baptisms. We have 12 people we could baptise  and they all have dates, the 24th and the 31st in July are big days for us. So we need your guys prayers. We could baptise so many people. But Satan is also so strong... You can see him playing tug of war with us. That's why, as a missionary, it is so VITAL to be obedient with exactness other wise you'll lose a round. You can't lose ANY rounds because these are souls we are talking about. 

 

We were born with the gospel and so we know it. But freak, I wish I could really just put my heart into the investigators so they could feel how I feel about the Gospel and could know what I know. The Gospel is PERFECT... Why can't everyone just understand it? But I also know that we cannot force anyone to believe anything we say. The Spirit is the real teacher, we are but instruments. So to be effective instruments, we must be EXACTLY OBEDIENT so the spirit can work through us, work through me. We must make the spirit the Senior companion in all we do... I love being a missionary!

 

I would have been so incomplete without it... We are currently helping a girl in our branch keep strong. She only had 10 days to go before she left for her mission to Dominican Republic... TEN DAYS!!! And yesterday we went all over the WORLD (the island) to find her, we finally found her after countless calls and text messages and her not replying... and she tells us she doesn't want to go anymore. HEART. BROKEN. But I know also, I can't even force her. All I could do was support her and give her words of encouragement.

 

We are all fighting individual battles and all we can do is be understanding of each other.

 

I kinda cried a little bit but.. yeah... I love her and I know she will make the right decision in the end.

 

We invited her just to pray and really ponder if she should go or not. This is her decision... but yeah. Pray for her ... I love her with all of my heart. Venancia is her name. 

 

Ok well have to go. Love You Guys xx

 

Don’t miss me too much, I got work to do J
