We finished another awesome week this week and it looks like
monsoon season won't be making an appearance in Chennai this year. Just
my luck. We had a lot of miracles in our lives this week as well and lots
of fun too. People are pretty funny here and way excited when I talk to
them.
Pretty crazy that 6 people came to church yesterday, I thought for sure that someone wasn't going to come but they all made it. And
in church the power went out twice and and the microphone wasn't working for
sacrament meeting but people still came and the elevator was broken too I forgot. Pretty awesome faith for the people here I must say.
We had the Ganesh festival on Friday which is one of the Hindu gods who I think is a mix of an elephant and a woman but I'm still not
sure. But they have like little mini statues of this guy everywhere and
giant light up images of him too. People were excited for that day because it was a holiday and lots of fireworks at night.
Mission President and his wife talked to us in Zone
Conference on Wednesday and told us to keep the end in mind and imagine
everyone that you talk to as a child of God and the potential they could
become. That's very helpful when you see people dressed in temple whites
with the possibility of getting sealed to their families. Nothing too
exciting happened this week other than that though or this next week.
Thanks for all the emails and updates this week.
Also glad to hear that BYU won. Keep asking questions
because its not too hard to answer them haha.. Things are great and talk to you
all next week.
Love
Elder Wakefield
