Daniel's letter from the mission president.


Dear Sisters and Elders,
Mission update: During the month of October, there were 42 baptisms in the mission (however, 3 were confirmed on November 1) A great number! Baptism commitments for November are at 28 with 11 set for December. As of today, there are three districts in the mission without any baptism commitments for either month. This is very short of our goal of 42 for the month of November and 47 for December. I am praying that through obedience, inspiration from the Spirit, and hard work, the Lord will guide you to those who need to hear your message. In order to achieve our goal of 42 for this month, we will need some miracles. As I have visited with a few of you, I know that in order to achieve our future goals, we must be diligent in our contacting. Also, we need to be more bold in our baptism invitations to those we know want to be baptized.
When I looked at the missionĂ¢€™s key indicators contained in your letters last week; for some reason we had a very tough week for lessons taught, new investigators, and progressing investigators. I am praying for all of you to be successful which will lead to happiness. Please fill out your key indicator report below. Some of you are not sending the information to me.
Thank you for your fasting and prayers for Elder Wang. His condition is very serious. At this point we know that he has experienced some kind of psychotic episode which has left him confused and not able to think or communicate clearly. He has been admitted to the New York Presbyterian Hospital in White Plains and is receiving excellent treatment. This is a very delicate and sensitive matter. Please continue to pray for him and his family at this time. I will let you know through your Zone Leaders of his progress.
