Hello everyone!!
Ok, Ok, I'm so excited. Guess what. So there's an awesome investigator named Ashten who has been meeting with the missionaries for over a year now but lately it's been really difficult to get a hold of her and to meet with her. She said she wanted to get baptized and then kind of fell off the earth for about 2 months... but we called her last week and she answered! We set an appointment with her for last saturday and she asked for a blessing🙏 as well so the Elders came and gave it to her at the church and the spirit was so strong before the lesson even started. :) Go priesthood blessings at church buildings! ⛪:D We got to know Ashten and she said she had come to the church before when she was dating one of the members and loved it! We let her choose her baptismal date and she chose January 20th because it's her birthday. :D We then reviewed the Restoration with her and showed her the baptismal font. We're meeting with her again today! And we're going to try to bring members with us to every lesson and get her started with genealogy to get names to take to the temple! Yay!
More miracles!: We got our member present goal this last week! Member presents can be difficult because we have to work with 3 different schedules for each lesson. Phew! Lots of phone calls.📞📞📞 But we did it! And the members that came are getting more and more excited about helping us out because they are starting to feel like they can help these people too. Yay!
Also, it snowed this morning. Brr!!❄❄
More miracles!: We were tracting and we went up to this huge mansion sort of house🏰 (so I was thinking that they would turn us away because every time we've tracted a huge house they have turned us away, you know, because they're rich and happy and don't feel like they need anything else in their life) but the man who answered said he already had a book of mormon, had been to Temple Square, knew lots of mormons, and he and his wife wanted to learn more about it!! They are the sweetest old couple ever. We met with them and got to know them and they talked a lot about how they had seen God in their life and their different experiences. We're going back on tuesday. :D
And then there were a whole bunch of other miracles in between but this email would be super long if I wrote about them all. :P
Have an awesome week everyone!!
