April 1st 2013


Hey mom!
Thanks for the email. This week was pretty good. President Young came down to teach the 3rd hour yesterday which was awesome! That will probably be one of the most memorable Sundays ever. Before church we had a meeting with the Priesthood executive committee and had a dedicatory prayer for the Brookings ward boundary. It was a great experience. It was fast and testimony meeting so there were tons of people that got up to bear their testimonies and we ended super late because there was a constant flow of people to the pulpit. The 3rd hour lesson was about Easter and about how we can share the Gospel with people around us. Then we had dinner with President and Sister Young with our ward mission leader.
So a few days ago we were tracting down a road and met a guy named Chris who said that we could come back on Sunday. So we came back and met with him and his girlfriend after our dinner with our ward mission leader. We had a great brief visit with them but we had to go because they completely forgot we were coming and were having guests over for an Easter celebration. But he had some family that was LDS and had said that he thinks God is trying to tell him something lately. Then his girlfriend Katie said "More like he came and kicked the door down!" So he really wants to come to church and meet with us more. He told us that he has and aunt who is LDS and has been trying to get him to church for a while. Sunday she called him to see if he went yet and when he said no she said "Do you need me to send the missionaries over there?" And he told her he had talked to us a few days earlier and that we were coming by later that day.
We have an investigator who is getting baptized in about a month! We are really excited about it. Her Husband is a member but hasn't been active since the mid 90's but loves the church.
Anyways those are the highlights for this week.
