I'm alive, despite the cold weather. Its actually been pretty nice this week, the sun is out and its around 40° and we haven't had any snowstorms lately.
Harley came to church on Sunday and is still so excited to learn about the gospel. She's getting baptized on the 29th and we are trying to see if we can teach her mom now! Shes still my best friend.
Marsha is new. She used to be Apostolic, but then there was an incident with the pastor that she loved at that church and then we found her. She's pretty set in her ways, has her own ideas about God and has been smoking for about 40 years, but was really excited to come to our church and said she really feels the spirit with us! She showed up to church on Sunday wearing a t-shirt that said WWJD and wearing every piece of jewelry with a cross on it that she owns hahaha.
The Perez family is awesome. They were taught by missionaries in Utah a long time ago and actually almost got baptized, but then they moved to a different part of Utah and they told us the new Elders teaching them were really arrogant and the members in that town were awful towards them so they stopped taking lessons and were pretty much turned off to the church completely. They said they were open to having us come back though so now we are teaching them and they are progressing really well. They have a baptism date for January 5th.
Jesse is going to Peru college, which is like the community college around here, he's disabled and has had a rough couple of years. He has a baptism date also for January 5th but he just left town all of a sudden and won't answer our calls or texts so we are hoping he just doesn't have his phone or something. We've been teaching him for a while, and sometimes he progresses and sometimes he just ignores us for a couple weeks at a time.
Joei...still has a baptism date, but everything in her life is against her at the moment. Her husband is basically telling everyone he is divorcing her and leaving her with nothing (no money, no place for her and her kids to live) and shes got a lot of health problems on top of that. She says she feels better when we come to see her and read the Book of Mormon with her, so we just keep doing that and praying for her all the time. She can use all the prayers she can get.
Right now me and Sister Tuala are making a million cookies and goodies to give to people this week for Christmas!
I love you all! Email me your address and I'll send you a Christmas card! ♥️
