COME AS YOU ARE (April 6)

This week was another good one. we do service for this guy named joe. he is a famous sculpture and painter and we knocked on his door and he asked if we would want to come by every few days and help him with service making his projects. we said yes and are helping him now. its fun we are learning how to build and make things, hes a nice guy to. we have a list of almost 30 people here this next transfer of people we want to help or change or help them get baptized. we want to have a good transfer and are hoping to be the best we can for god. 

we had the last district meeting of transfers as 80 theme haha good pictures there. you learn alot in district meetings. 

the work is going good here though. we had a few people come watch conference talks and it was funny..jeff ritter is a hard core baptist ha he wants to get baptized. in only 2 transfers he has read the whole BOM and been to church. he got a youth job as a pastor in another church so that was our hold up right now..but in conference they said the church has never been stronger..jeff gave a big air fist bump and said amen haha hes not a member yet but we were all laughing. 
this week has just been another in the books. hard work, lots of laughts. spring cleaning( gross) and trying to become better. I loved conference. 2 fav talks were actually by seventies. the talk about learning to dance and hearing the music. that was changed me alot personally. and the next was " it was I. but it is not I". I loved it. something I always tell people scared to come to church or out to an activity is Christ said " come as you are." I always loved that but after that talk I thought why christ lets us come as we are no matter what we are or who. we could be stragglers or have turned away or just good people. no matter who you are..."come as you are" I think it is because he doesn't care who we are when we come. he cares about who we are when we leave. he will always be there and ready to take the people in. its when the people leave out. is when we are put to the test of can I be a follower of Christ. I enjoyed it alot and hope to spiritually come as I am ever day and leave a little better every day. I love you guys and hope youre week was good. keep praying for me and know I miss everyone! ian hullinger!
