Hello, sorry it's been a bit since I've done a group email.
Things have been pretty crazy. So, as you probably could tell, it's already transfers
again. It's going so fast. We got the transfer roster this morning and we found
out the news. Elder McLean is leaving to go to Tremonton. I will be getting Elder
Sandstrom, I know him pretty well so I'm excited.
We have seen a lot of miracles in the past few weeks. A girl
that we have been visiting for the past transfer finally decided that she was
going to get baptized. So they will probably do that around Thanksgiving. We
are excited for her, she has already had all of the lessons and could be
baptized at any time, but she wants her older brothers to be home from college
when she does. On Saturday, right before we went home, we ran into a man from
Jamaica who was out for an evening walk. We got to talking and it turns out
that he came to Utah 3 months ago and that he didn't know why he was here. He
said he wanted to get closer to God and he walked by the LDS church often and
had seen the visitors welcome sign and had wanted to come for a while but felt
like he needed to have his first time be at a "conference" of some
sort and not a regular church meeting. We were happy to inform him that the
Utah North Regional Conference was being held on Sunday and invited him to
come. He said he would love to, but he had scheduled an important meeting at
that time. We were disappointed but he agreed to meet later on in the day,
after the conference. So we showed up to conference on Sunday to sit with our
other investigators and afterwards, as we were helping pick up chairs, Andrew
(the man we met) walked up to us in a super nice suit and totally surprised us.
He told us he had felt like he needed to cancel his appointment and come to the
conference. Then the Stake President showed up and introduced himself and we
ended up teaching the restoration in the High Council Room. He knows it's true
and committed to be baptized on the 12th of November. We are super excited!
Anyway, that is just one of many miracles that have
happened. I just want you all to know that I have a testimony of the restored
gospel and my Savior Jesus Christ. I invite all of you to share your testimony
with others often, I promise you will see it work wonders in the lives of those
around you. Thank you all so much for your prayers and support!
Love you all!
