"It All Clicks, It Just Makes Sense!"


Hello Everyone! I hope this week has been a good week for all of you. Things are going pretty well for me. We had a lot going on this past week. We had a zone conference where we learned more about our purpose and how to teach the plan of salvation more simply. The next day, we had interviews with President Christiansen! It was great to talk to him about the area and what we have been going through. It was good to talk to him!
After our interviews, we had an awesome lesson with one of our new investigators, Jodie.  She has been investigating the church, even though her situation isn't allowing her to come to church or really even talk to us, but she wants to learn! She read through half of the Book of Mormon on her own! We taught her the Plan of Salvation and during the lesson she began to cry. She said "It all clicks, it just makes sense!" I took this Gospel for granted. The truths that we have are precious and we are so blessed with the knowledge that we have. The Hunters are doing well and we are excited to see them baptized this Saturday. It will be a day to remember! William is also doing well and is still figuring out his concerns on his own. He is truly grateful for our visits and he is loving the ward so far.
Oh! We had a Zone Blitz this last Saturday and we went down into the Chesapeake area (which is in Baltimore County).  We visited with a lot of less actives and cleaned up the ward list. It was a lot of fun! Overall, it was a very busy and very wonderful week! I'm so grateful for the Gospel and the peace that it brings. I know that the plan of salvation is God's plan for all of us and that the hope that it brings is real! I'm so grateful for my Father in Heaven and the love that He has for all of us!
All of us having fun on Preparation Day.

We Have Had Lots Of Miracles!


Hello Everyone!
Things have been going really well here with our investigators! We have met with William a lot this week. He is doing better and the concerns that he has, he has been resolving on his own! It's been super sweet! The Hunter family is doing great. Their daughter Annabelle has also agreed to get baptized. Super awesome! We have also met with tons of new people! Like, lots! We met this great family that wants to meet with us later. Sorry, but I don't have a last name for them yet. We also met with Teon. A super great guy who is interested in learning more. Jodie is a mom who on her own, has started to read the Book of Mormon! She is in Alma and has said that she feels peace as she reads. She is getting a lot of pushback from her family, but she is willing to learn more, so we are excited to continue to teach her.  As you can see, we have had lots of miracles! My favorite experience this week is just the fact that we have been able to find so many people! It's been awesome! I know that this Gospel is true and that those who are seeking the truth will find it. I hope you have a great week!
