So the work is going really well! We had a rough week last
week because we were sick the previous week and had no appointments set. BUT,
this week is looking amazing! We have another person that wants to be baptized!
The Begay family is an inactive family that's
returning and they have a son that wants to take the lessons and a daughter
that's also interested. SWEET!!!! We just met them a few days ago. Awesome
family. Savanna is still doing great we're hopefully going to have her baptism interview this week. Sean and Kelsie are
doing pretty good too. They're still talking about the wedding date, and
hopefully the next time we meet with them they'll have a date we can start
working with. I read them the emails you all sent of your testimonies of
different topics. They loved them! Kelsie especially liked hearing your
testimonies and is even more excited to raise her family in the Gospel. The
Shorty family is a recent convert family. The dad was inactive and decided to
come back to church and brought his family along. They were Baptized a few
months ago. Their son, Grant, got the Priesthood! He went with us to Louis
Wadely in the nursing home to give her the sacrament. It took him a
few tries, but he got it! He loved being able to serve with the Priesthood.
Things are really moving along. Our Mission President, President Miller, set a
new standard for our meals with members that we're also really excited about.
We're only allowed to eat with two active members a week, and the rest of the
meals need to be a teaching opportunity. So active members can have in-active or
non-member friends over and that counts. We're really excited to put this new
standard to work. President told us to be bold when we're talking to the
non-members we know and the less actives, simply tell them that we're having a
tough time filling our dinner calendar and would love to join their family for
dinner sometime in the next couple weeks. It'll be interesting to see how that
is received. So far most of the members seem on board with it as well, we were a
little worried about that.
All in all, things are going great! Love you all!
Elder Wallis
