Hello hello!!!
What a beautiful wonderful week here in the city of
Halifax!! This week was madness, but that's pretty normal for the metro! I LOVE
it! We are constantly out doing and running around so we are able to see lots
of blessings for that! It's a good life!
This week we met with a lot of less actives, recent converts
and investigators!
We were able to pick up a new investigator this week! We met
with her and shared the message of the restoration with her. She felt the spirit so strong which brought
lots of tears (the good kind) and committed to a baptismal date!! We are sooo
excited for her!!
Then....this week we got a call from Bishop Catton and one
of our former investigators met with him and wants to get baptized!! Some
background on her....She is dating a less active member in the ward. She
learned from the missionaries back in April and knew it was all true, but
couldn't be baptized because she was living with her boyfriend. She is pregnant
with a baby boy and due next month! She just moved in with her grandma, so she
is now able to be baptized!! So of course we were freaking out, then he tells
us that we should plan the baptism to be in a couple weeks....so we freaked out
some more! So we met with her that day and went over the baptismal interview
questions and set the date for November 19th. She is so wonderful!! She has
such real intent! She has such a strong testimony of the church! Now if you're
like me you're thinking, "wow that really can't get better" BUT it
did! She came with us to church Sunday, stayed the whole time! Loves it, she's
been coming pretty regularly since she first started to learn. After church we
get a text from her telling us how happy she was to be at church with us and
that the whole time she was there she just had the overwhelming feeling that
she needs to get baptized THIS Saturday and not wait until next week. And she
wanted to know if that was a possibility!! So we talked to the bishop and he
said he thought it was a great idea! SOOOO I have a baptism this Saturday!! 5
days! LIFE IS GREAT!!!
I am having soooo sooo much fun with Sister Dutson! We are
seriously so similar! Its been a blast!! This transfer is going so great and I
am on a roller coaster that only goes up my friends (:
Love love love you all!! Have a wonderful week!
My inspirational quote for you this week is one that the oh
so wonderful Nicole sent me and its so great I had to share!
