This week was amazing!!!! DORIS GOT
BAPTIZED!!! She took the plunge ;) Her brother who is 16 years younger than her
drove to Franklin with his family all night so he could baptize and confirm
her! She said she was pretty sure her brother introduced her to the church so
he could publicly "dunk" her- she said it was the perfect little
brother's revenge. Hahahah. But on
a more spiritual note, the baptism was awesome! I think almost everyone was in
tears by the end of it! The spirit was strong- just another testimony to me
that this church is true and that Heavenly Father loves all of His children.
The spirit is such a sweet confirmation of His love and His care for all of us.
We also found 4 new investigators
this week!!! It was pretty exciting! One of them was a complete miracle! We had
an appointment scheduled with one of our investigators on Saturday evening and
she canceled on us last minute. Sister Wilde was coming with us-- and she was
amazing and said that she would go wherever we needed to go- that even though
the investigator canceled she was still willing to go out with us! So as we
followed through with our backup plans we decided to go and see a potential
investigator named BJ that we had met with about 6 weeks ago and hadn’t been
able to get into contact with since. We had stopped by her home a couple times
earlier in the week and she hadn't been there. BUT SHE WAS HOME!!!! She let us
right in. We had left her a copy of the Book of Mormon and invited her to read
it after the first time we met with her and taught her about the Restoration of
the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Come to find out, she was already in the Book of
Helaman!!!!! and she wants to come to church :) She will be out of town for a
little bit-- but we were so grateful that we were able to get in contact with her
again and set up another appointment!!!! We are excited for BJ’s spiritual
journey :)
Nothing else to terribly exciting
happened this week- funny story though- Sister Bambrough and I totally slept on
couches in a kitchen this week on exchanges. How random!
I love you all!!! Thank you for your
support!
Love,
