I Think Spring is Coming...

Well, hello again. This week was pretty good. We FINALLY got one of our investigators to come to church this week. I almost didn't know what to do, it had been such a long time since we had someone there. But, it was great. That's basically the highlight of the week, so sorry if I don't mention too much else. So, We met with her a few times this week, with members from our ward, so that she would have some friends when she got to church. We had planned on meeting with her Saturday night, but she had to cancel, so I was worried that she would wimp out on church again too, but she called and said that she still wanted a ride and that she would be ready when they came to pick her up. So, I was really excited when we got to church. When she walked in, I was even more excited. She was talking to a lot of people so that's always good. She brought her 4 year old son too, and he had a blast too. But, it seemed that EVERY single person that bore their testimony said something that was exactly what she needed to hear. It was incredible. She has a big issue with Joseph Smith and the whole polygamy thing, and it is really the only thing holding her back right now, but we challenged her to pray specifically about him, and I hope she recognized all of the answers that came yesterday. Not only during sacrament meeting, but sunday school was perfect too. We talked about the scriptures, and she brought up her questions about that, and it was all really awesome. And then after church, one of the Sister missionaries in our ward told me that the lesson in Relief Society was on how to gain your own testimony, and they talked a lot about Joseph Smith there too. So all 3 hours of church were just perfect for her. It really strengthened my testimony of fasting too, cause I was fasting for her to have a good experience, and I would say she definitely did. It was awesome.

So like I said earlier, that was the highlight of the week, so I don't really have much else to say. I could give youan update on my companion. He's cool. We have had a few talks and it was basically that the missionaries in his other areas were not very obedient, so that rubbed off on him, but he wants to be obedient, so we set some goals and are working together to help each other out. It's going pretty well. So that's cool.

Ummm well, I guess I'll wrap up. Good luck with surgery tomorrow, Dad. Kadin, sorry for neglecting you last week. I don't care if you start a level on Zelda. And, it sounds like there is lots of interesting news that's been happening. Some good, some not. And thanks to Marky-mark for the great letter. Good to hear from you, man. (he is a friend from when I worked at VLCM, by the way) Oh yeah, and the weather has been awesome the last couple of days. up around 60 with a slight breeze, and mostly cloudy. It's nice. I am so excited for spring to get here. Well, that's it so I'll go now. Have a great week. Hope to hear from you ALL again sometime soon. Love ya! peace
