Snowy day here in Kentucky!
Wow this last week was awesome! Do y'all remember Bill from my last area in New Albany? Well he got baptized on Friday and I got to go to the baptism!!! Since I was there when he first started investigating the church President Brough let me go to it. Bro. Johnson dorve us up to New Albany. It was a long 3 hour drive. But it was so worth it. It was super awesome to see a lot of the members in New Albany and also some of the recent converts that we baptized when iw as there! Such a great experience.
Also had zone conference on Tuesday up in Lexington. It was a super great meeting and I learned a lot of things. I wish everyone could have been to that meeting.
Yesterday was the monthly fireside up in Lexington so we rode with a missionary that just got off of her mission last week from Montana, and also with her brothers. We drove in their families excursion and it was super nice haha. The Fireside was really good and I always enjoy the testimonies of the recent converts that get up and share their stories.
Oh so Donielle had her baptism interview on Saturday and she passed it so she is going to be baptized this coming Saturday and she asked if I would baptize her!:) Dang excited for that! There aren't many things better in life than baptizing someone. It's a wonderful experience.
Jessi and Barbara came to church yesterday so that was awesome. They are going to be going to the court house today to see if they can get Barbara's divorce finalized so her and jessi can get married so then they can be baptized! If I could only have 1 thing for Christmas it would be for them to be baptized before the end of this year!
Oh and at church yesterday the sister missionaries had 10 investigators at church and we 3 so we had a total of 13 people at church it was awesome. they are teaching this family that has 13 KIDS! The parents have 2 of their own and then they have just adopted the rest of them. They just keep adopting these kids that have come from drug homes or just from bad families. So the sisters are teaching them and most of them came to church yesterday! That would be a lot of baptisms!
Love you all so much!!
First pic is of me and Bill.
Second is of both of my sons(missionaries I trained) they were both at the baptism.
Third is of me and a recent convert named Nic . I'm not sure if I mentioned a lot about him but he is really good friends with the bishop in New Albany and we started teaching him when I was there and so he got baptized like 3 weeks after we started teaching him. Him and I are like best bud's. We email each other like every week. He's 17 I think and wants to go on a mission when he graduates. So awesome!!
