Wow, what a week!
We have been truly blessed so so much! I am just blown away at the
many doors or opportunities that have been opened to us just in the last couple
of days! It really has been so amazing! I love the Sheboygan
ward! The people are wonderful and my companion is so so wonderful!
We are very similar in many ways!
Some of the people we
are working with are Nicole, Emily, Linda and Eric, and Arrianna. We
invited Nicole to be baptized on December 20th this week and she is really
excited for baptism! Her daughter is a recent convert and has a really
cool conversion story that I was able to ask her about.
We have been getting
referrals right and left it seems! We got one from the Oak Creek sisters,
which happens to be one of my old companions, Sister Ormsby! Also, in Fond
du Lac, one of the members has a sister that lives in Sheboygan so we are
looking forward to meeting her and the members are very open in sharing the
with us the people they have been working with.
We had a neat experience
trying this new survey thing too, tracting this week. As we learn how to
use more and helps us know what people are searching for and what their needs
are. While we were doing that we met a really sweet 90 year old lady raking her
leaves. We came up to her and asked if we could help her. At first
she said no but we persisted and were happy and she softened and let us
help. By the end she was so grateful and later called the number we left
her. She must have thought it was a number to our leaders because she
left the sweetest voicemail! Afterward we both agreed that doing service
just "infuses our souls with light."
well, I have to get
going but Happy Thanksgiving!!!! I am grateful so so much for all of you
and to be on a mission!!!!!!! The church is brilliantly true!
