Let the spirit guide you

June 19
      Well somehow another week has flown away in the Great Texas Houston South Mission. Elder Ibarra and I have been working our tails off trying to get people to church this week...but it still proves to be rather difficult! We had MLC (Mission Leadership Council) this last Friday and that was super great, we were able to discuss and learn from each other and from President Hall. There are some things we need to improve in our area of course but we are getting there!  I love this work and I love the Gospel of Jesus Christ! Repentance is change and boy have I grown to love change! lol. 

Love, 

Elder Clements 

Work hard, sweat harder

     Well we lost our "golden" investigator. Everything was going super well, we had member friends and we were visiting him every-other day, he had a date to be baptized on July 8th...when we got a text from him a few days ago telling us he doesn't want to "play with God' and asked us to not come see him anymore. That made us really sad, I felt like laying down and crying in the middle of the trailer park we were at when we got the text. As a missionary you really learn to love and cherish the souls of others, and I have never felt so much sadness as I did when this dear man told us he didn't want to continue progressing. I hope and pray that we planted a deep enough seed in him to be harvested at some later time! We worked super hard this week and found 3 new investigators, we are super excited to be teaching them. I love this work and know it's true! I love it, and I live it!!! Our strength IS in CHRIST!  

Love, 

Elder Clements 

Sacrifice brings forth the blessings of heaven!

Well this week flew away like normal. It was full of let-downs and rain...until Sunday. We found a golden one! This man is ready to be baptized! He has accepted baptism and wants to meet with us every day...wow. So I learned this week that sacrifice and patience brings forth the blessings of heaven! Oh yeah tons of water down here and killer weather. oh also I'm not getting transferred but Elder Woodward is. 

Love, 

Elder Clements. 

We might have drove the car into the ditch :/
