BUÉK

Szervusztok!

Well I guess somehow it's already time for another transfer call, which also means the start to my last transfer here in this wonderful country. Unfortunately I don't get to spend my final transfer with elder Robinson or here in Győr, but it's still going to be a great time. I'm going to be in a city called Pápa which is just south of Győr with elder Beeton who is in his third transfer. We're just now opening up this companionship, so we get to live in an apartment as 4 elders, the only one in the country. It's going to be super fun and one of the elders in my apartment is elder Norris, from my MTC group and he'll go home with me in February.

A tone of stuff happened these last two weeks, but I don't really have time to talk about them all.
We got a fed a bunch, elder Robinson and I didn't have to make dinner after the 22nd of December, so that was pretty fantastic.
We had a super cool Christmas, we had all the missionaries in Győr over for breakfast, after that we gave out all of our leftover Christmas cards and then we had Christmas dinner with the senior couple here and the other elders. We also got remote control cars and sleeping bags as gifts, which was super nice.
On Boxing Day we got permission to go with the Bradshaws to a city called Pannonhalma to go see an organ concert in a 1000 year old, still working, monastery. It was super pretty and super awesome.
We also had a super cool experience the other day. On Saturday we went out tracting and we met someone who told us to come back the next day at 3. Well, when we came back unfortunately she wasn't there, but that just gave us time to go tracting again. The first door that we knocked on we met this super cool girl named, Beatrix, who was super interested and wants to come to church, read the Book of Mormon and watch general conference. We set up to meet with her again on Friday and unfortunately I won't be here, but it was super cool to meet her.

Have a great week everyone and a very happy new year!

Szeretettel,
McKim elder

  1. Belief is the reason we go on a mission. It is the motive for preaching about Christ and sharing/Proclaiming his love. Faith is understanding we are children of God and our Heavenly Father. May this definition of faith bless you in your life. Faith is defined again and because faith has an inherent joy it gives us a solid foundation that we finally have the peace we have been searching for.

    "Many believer's feed themselves on what God hasn't done. When I dwell on what hasn't happened, I create the atmosphere for the spirit of offense to arise and to thrive. When I dwell on what hasn't happened, I legitimize unbelief. I live with a sense of justification, for not believing God.

    Faith in the purest sense is the ceasing of resistance. even when there's no physical evidence, when the other evidence is present. Not feeding ourselves on what God hasn't done Faith in it's purest form is the absence of resistance

    Heaven is a place where everyone is celebrated, some are more honored but everyone is celebrated. All men and all women shall be judged on the light which they have received. Heaven is a permissible culture. God's nature is eternally permissible. These statements protect us from credit.

    Faith in the purest sense is the ceasing of resistance, even when there's no physical evidence, when the other evidence is present. Not feeding ourselves on what God hasn't done. Faith in it's purest form is the absence of resistance. Faith doesn't deny a problems existence, it denies it's influence. He or she was someone whom aridity and desolation never disturbed for he or she had a deeply rooted, and a vigorous faith.

    Now we can act as we have always dreamed. Now we can act as we have always been. Now we can step into the light and gather the sunlight instead of blocking out our possibilities. Instead of blocking out our joy. Variety will bloom in/under the sun. We can show off our best, we can enjoy other people's gifts. We can blossom where we stand upon the joy that faith provides us. Upon the joy that faith inherently has, which blossoms the entire field of flowers"
