Hello ALL!!
I hope everyone is doing well! I am finally starting to feel better!!! YAY!!! The doctor put me on new medication so the pain is going away, he said it will be a couple days to get into my system and to feel completely better, but I'm already feeling better so I'm happy!! Despite all the pain this last week has been pretty successful. Nanto and I got 5 New investigators, 3 of which are on date to be baptized in the upcoming weeks!
Last night we got together with the Seabeck Elders (Elder Burt and Elder Bullough) and we put on a Youth Fireside with both our wards, it went so well! The spirit was so strong. The topic was S.M.I.L.E (Spiritually Minded Is Life Eternal, which is 2 Nephi 2:29) so we each gave a 10-ish minute talk relating to that. It was really great!
Another funny thing that happened this week was on Tuesday. We were looking for our investigator Jamey's house, we had only taught him at a members home, but we knew he lived near that member so we thought we would knock some doors in the general area to find him. I had this feeling and pointed to a house and said, "THAT ONE" we went and it wasn't that one, BUT at that door we met this girl named Carly Quiriarte. She was so sweet and cute, she was about 18 or 19 and we talked to her about the Restoration and the Book of Mormon. She seemed super interrested so we asked her to read the Book of Mormon and then to pray to know if it was true, she said she would. Then Nanto asked the big question, "If you find out that this book is true, will you follow the example of Jesus Christ, and be baptized by someone holding the proper Priesthood Authority?" She said yes, so Nanto followed up with, "we're holding a baptismal service on the 31 of March, if you find out it's true by that date will you be baptized then?" then Carly responded in a very shocking way...she said "Yeah, what time?" We kind of stared and said "um, 6?" It was so awesome, unfortunately she hasn't been home to visit with us and she didn't come to church yesterday so the date will have to be moved back, but she seems like she is ready to learn and grow in the gospel, we're excited to get to see her and teach her more! I'll keep you updated!
Well I'm like out of time, I don't know where it goes, but it just leaves! I love you all and wish you all the best of luck! I pray for you everyday and I know that god loves you and wants the best for all of you!!! Trust in him! He will make your pathways bright!! He loves you!! I love you all and miss you!
Love,
Sister Brittany Thomas
