Some Other week in November

So this week has been pretty good, to say the least. So we were able to meet with our investigator Kathryn and her husband. The lesson was going fairly well when we brang up prophets he then said we told him that God was a man, he then got up and very juvenility and sarcastically said he believes God is a black woman and then left into the other room. Kathryn our awesome investigator said she was sorry for that and told to continue with her and her progression towards baptism. It was very upsetting, for him to do that but he's 65 years old and shouldn't have done that but he did and he has his agency. Turned out to be a great lesson with her as we strived to invite the spirit back into the lesson.

Another fairly cool experience is we were making so less-actives door the wife came to the door and said her husband wasn't home so she couldn't invite us in, but she had a referral for us. She continued to tell us about her neighbors downstairs and how they could benefit from a visit. By this time it was about 8 o'clock so we were like we'll get to it tomorrow. But all in God's timing we felt like we needed to go visit so we ended up going and knocking on the door. They answered and we introduced ourselves and said we were going around offering prayers on people and their homes. He was like sure come right on in, so we offered a prayer and talked for a minute after and he said we could come back and set up an appointment with him and his family. The next night we got a call from the family that referred them and they said they were interested in coming to church! It was awesome! So we're going to try to meet with them and start teaching the family!

This week has been great had zone conference and learned about the churches Christmas campaign. They're going to be advertising like crazy over social media sites the whole nine yards it's going to be a great tool to get people even more curious about the church than they already are. It's going to be a mormon.org/christmas and there's going to be some pretty cool things going on with this Christmas campaign. You need to check it out. As well as make a mormon.org profile to bear your testimony of Christ's restored Gospel as well as answer questions that people have. The work is hastening and Christ's message is of great importance. Anyway the work is continuing forward and I'm glad to be on the front-lines. Love you all! Love hearing from you!!

Love
