Elder Dalsasso : "God hath not given us the spirit of fear"

Hello everyone!

Wow, there is a lot going on at home. There are some awesome stuff going on over here 2. First off Caesar did not get baptized. We had to move it to this Saturday. This time its actually going to happen. He had to go to church one more time before he got baptized not only did our mission president say that but Caesar wanted to come one more time before he gets baptized anyways so it worked out. I'm super excited for him. But besides Caesar we got one new investigator named Dana Springer. His wife or girlfriend wanted us to teach him. He's a cool guy, he has been in the national guard for like 13 years and in the army for 16 years. So he has definitely served us so now its time to serve him. We also got 4 INVESTIGATORS at church yesterday!!!!!! Thats never happened before. Our other investigators are Frank and Jasmine. They have been investigating off and on for a while now. The only thing thats stopping them from getting baptized is them not getting married. So Stephan wants to talk to them about it and lay down the hammer. But we had a great lesson with them 2 days ago about giving your will over to your heavenly father so he can bless you. We brought the bishop and he talked about Narnia or the lion the witch and the wardrobe. The author of that book was a professor at oxford University. He was Atheist for many years then he had an amazing experience and converted to Christianity. So C.S. Lewis wrote Narnia to represent Christ and other gospel principles. When he told me that my mind was blown! the lion Represents Christ dying and then being resurrected. My Bishop thinks we should be aloud to read them on our mission because it has so many Gospel Principles.
Oh i also forgot to mention we had our first Zone meeting this last week. On Wednesday we had MLC(missionary Leadership Training) and the spirit that was there was just amazing. Then on Thursday we planned out zone meeting and DLC( District Leadership Training). It went well i was wicked nervous but i got through it like it says in 2 Timothy:7 "God hath not given us the spirit of fear". So i got over my fear and had a great zone meeting.
Well thats all for this week i would like to finish this email with my testimony.I read Mosiah 26:24-39 this past week and it talked a lot about forgiveness. If a man truly is sorry and really repents for his actions then we should forgive him. Because the lord has already forgiven that person who repented for his sins. Forgiveness is a powerful thing. It helps you to forget about yourself and helps you stop being pride full. To be Christ like is to forget about yourself completely and focus on others. Thats when your truly happy is you your self doesn't matter anymore its the people around you who you really care for. My invitation for everyone who is reading this is to forget about yourself and forgive someone who has hurt or done something to you.

I love you all.
