Week 91: He is Risen

Image
Dear beloved I am pleased with the infinite love the Savior has offered to each one of us. This past week was amazing to learn about his final moments which is so dramatically played in the activity we had for Easter Friday. It brought tears to each and every members and investigators who attended the Activity.  The members support was so amazing and we were successful in this activity. As we have celebrated Easter Sunday, for me it takes back to the time in the Garden of Gethsemane and watch the Son of God go through pains, sufferings, afflictions, trails for you and me so that he can understand how the people of the world would feel and go through the hard times in their life so that the Savior can offer that hope, peace and joy and strength to endure the trails. I have come to an deeper understanding of his infinite love for us. It brings me tears and I would proudly say that my Redeemer lives. He has given me hope in this life that I too can endure the pains and suf...

Week 90: "A Triumphal entry in Jerusalem"

Hey Everybody!!! Weeks been great and we had lots of travel to Bangalore, Coimbatore and here in Tirupur. We both were exhausted however we are excited to continue working. During the last two weeks we were able to invite people for Baptism and mostly it will not happen for this month however I am super excited for next month. We have got about 9 people prepared to make a covenant with the lord and I pray and hope that they will be prepared for it. The family names are Manokaran Family, Chitra Family, Vijay - Karthika, John Kennedy. I love all the families we are teaching. Above all a Sister named Gunaseli who is very eager to be Baptized and she would have in the month of Feb however she met with an accident and we couldn't go further with her, but as we were teaching here family members even they were interested to follow the Savior Jesus Christ. We felt so great in teaching them and we can see them progressing so rapidly in gaining the knowledge.  John Kennedy is a part membe...

Week 89: Ye who patiently waits receives it

Hello Everybody!!!  Sorry that I couldn't add any pics for the weekly update, my camera is not working properly :( however the week was great and I have fallen sick for 2 days. Haha now I am feeling alright and excited to work. During the week we tried to meet our people and help to know more about Christ, we couldn't meet many and I personally felt sad cos I got a new missionary and not much I could show him. As Sunday came we were filled with appointments and we found a new family through member referral. Later that night we invited a family for Baptism. It was great to see the hands of the lord when having patience that he will provide a way for us to experience something. We waited and we got it. So for this month or next month we would have about 8 people entering into water to make a covenant with the father in heaven and I hope it will be done according to his will.  Love, Elder Ravindran

Week 88: Survival week

Hello Everybody!!!!!  I am doing great and continuing my mission here at Tirupur with Elder Bangari :) who is from Hyderabad. I excited to work with him for the rest of my mission. Hope so!!! Well its been a great week and month end, right after when Elder Vuppada left I had to come back to Tirupur and for the rest of the days until month end, I was out of money and was wondering what to do. It was hard however I was able to survive. I learnt a lesson to budget my money well, so that I can handle throughout the month and better use of money even after mission.  I wanted to share something about our blessed place which is Tirupur. I am grateful to be back in Coimbatore, I wondered why am I back to where I started. As I went around the zone talking to my converts last year, reflecting to this year, they have improved a lot and they are able to move forward firm and steadfast in the great lovely colorful Gospel. One family is preparing for Temple and another two fami...
