Thanks for the update. I
enjoyed it a lot. That is really sad that the olds finished his life in
the junkyard... Even witht the stickers. Did they take the speakers out
of it before they sold it? Because that car had such a great system. I
loved it. Wow, those kids are so dang fast. I cannot believe that they
are running that fast! How is the Davis team? Has weber beaten Davis?
That would make me so happy. Finally Weber beats the Davis Running
Dynasty!!! And a PR by 1:40, that is wonderful for Levi! That makes me
really happy that he keeps getting better. And now, he's going all the
way to Logan for dances. Does he know where he wants to go to school?
How are his papers coming? Well, we keep moving along. Things have
gotten kinda tough lately, but we have found a few new investigators
that are super positive, and we still have Carolina.
She still hasn't gotten baptized because the lady
that she nannies for had to work on Sunday and so Carolina had to
babysit. It was kinda sad, however, general conference is coming this
weekend!!! I am so excited and we are going to see if we can't baptize
Carolina on Sunday, and if not, we'll get her the week after! I am so
excited for conference, it is not even expressable. Carolina is still
really awesome too. She would love to be super active in the church, but
her job is kinda tough for that, but we keep working with her. We have
been working with her little siblings and her mom basically told us that
they were too little and that when they want to go to church, or when
they take the initiative to go to church, they can go. She basically
told us that she didn't want us to take them to church. So, we have
almost come to a halt with them.
A little while ago, we found someone new to teach.
Her name is Claudia and she is really positive, too. She hasn't had the
best life growing up. All her family is Evangelical and her dad always
called her the black sheep because she wasn't always constant in going
to church. However, she seems really excited and we had an extremely
spiritual experience with her last night. She had goen to Xela for the
week and we didn't know when we could go, so we decided to stop by
yesterday. It was a great lesson. We talked about the Plan of Salvation.
Everything was going pretty well. We taught her about the Celestial
kingdom and asked her if she knew what she had to do to get in. That's
where we entered with baptism and we challenged her to be baptized. It
was really cool because she was pretty willing. Also, just before we got
to her house, she was watching the BYU Channel and saw a lady talking
about her conversion. What a great coincidence! It was wonderful. She
talked to us about how the mormons that she knows have usually been
pretty close families and she is kinda envious of that. I felt touched
to testify to her about our Heavenly Father's love for her. She just
started to cry. It was a wonderful experience. It was so great. She is
going to go to conference and is going to love it. She has been
prepared.
Yesterday at church, we met someone new as well.
His name is Celvin and seems pretty awesome. His wife is a Mormon, and
apparently 10 years ago she would always beg him to go to church and he
wouldn't. But now, she has left him just a little bit and has realized
that he needs to go to church. His boss also told him that he should go.
So, yesterday he showed up and loved it. He was taking notes all day
long. Today we have anotehr appointment with him.
I love this work and everything that the Lord has
done for me. I love the guidance of the Spirit that all of us can have. I
know that the Lord gives us trials so that we can learn from the
Spirit. Love you and thanks for all your support, mom.
Love,
