Week 24
Beverly Hills! That's where I wanna be!
Something tells me that the property value here is a little less that that of the American Beverly Hills. (Inspiration of this week's song title subject line) |

...But instead I'll be transferring to Masaka to be a District Leader! I have thoroughly enjoyed my time in Kajjansi, but I am glad to get a change in scenery and move on to a new area. I will miss the many friends I've made dearly! Masaka here I come!!
Last week I talked about Brother Amim. He was not baptized this week after all, but that's okay. He's one of the strongest people I know. As I said last week he was having some issues with his Muslim family. Though his life is not in jeopardy he/we felt it better that he at least gain the acceptance of his family before he makes this step. Thus we decided to give it a little time.
I am very proud of Amim, as well as many of our progressing investigators. I am proud of them. Though I won't be in Kajjansi to see them get Baptized I am just overwhelmed with love and joy over the changes they have made in their lives..
As a mission we have been challenged to follow the gospel and the mission rules with exactness. Just like the
stripling warriors (Book of Mormon Reference. Young Men who showed great faith and were delivered in battle) we are truly confident that as we obey the miracles will come. Along with that we have a goal of 260 convert baptisms in the next six weeks. All in the area have been invited to join us and share their miracles. We have already seen so many miracles in our effort to seek them.

I know that as we show the Lord our faith and trust in him, he shows us his miracles and manifests his power in our lives. I invite any of you who are interested to also follow the gospel with exactness and look for the miracles in your lives. It makes a difference. I know many of you have differing beliefs from many different outlooks of life; but I promise that as you more fully put your trust in God he will bless you. He loves all of his children dearly.
I Love you all and wish you a spectacular miracle filled week.
Love,
Elder Winn
