This week we found a great guy named
Claver (Never have I heard that name, here or up north) who came to
church with us this Sunday. Luckily it was fast and testimony meeting,
and he said he loved it. He said he enjoyed how every one in the
congregation got to participate, but what made me the most happy was how
many people talked to him after the meeting and made him feel welcome.
That's always such a score for me! I love it when people are nice to new
people, wherever it may be! Being new is probably the most
uncomfortable social thing ever, so when people are nice to you and
laugh with you it's a life changer. THAT, I testify, THAT is half the
reason people want to return to church the following week. Because they
felt at home and comfortable. Yes, the Spirit is there, and they feel it
and can often recognise that good feeling. But that good feeling often
takes a big back seat if you go to church not knowing any one except for
the weird kids who always wear white shirts and ties and no one talks
to you.
BE NICE AND LOVE EVERY ONE. The best way to feel
loved is to love other people. Whoa. If we feel like no one loves us,
but then we show some one who needs it some love, they'll love us and
then we won't need it any more either. It's kind of like physics with
the equal and opposite force, right? Haha, maybe not. I dropped physics,
so no one can blame me for that if it didn't make sense. Any ways, I
love all of you sooo much and I haven't met any one here that I don't
love yet, so I'm feeling really good. Let us all follow our Saviour's
grand loving example this week by showing our love to every one we can.
We'll get love back - I promise.
DALE AMOR,
Élder McDonald
