This week was another good one. Our ward had a big change happen to
them. Three of our powerful young adults went on mission! Two of them
are going to Port Harcourt, Nigeria and the other a sister is going to
Calabar, Nigeria. It was really cool to see them go and to see the
support the ward gave them as they went. They're enjoying the MTC right
now with that huge food! These missionaries were powerful in our ward,
could possibly say three of the strongest members we have so it won't be
easy to replace them in their callings which were institute instructor,
ward clerk and sunday school teacher. Our bishop is kind of stressing
right now ha. I'm way excited for them. Going on mission will help them
so much and their families too.
We have a new powerful investigator named Patrick! He was a member referral that we got at the end of last week and we have only had three lessons with him but we are already through the Book of Mormon, Plan of Salvation and he came to church yesterday. POWERFUL! To top it off he has a baptismal date for next month on the 28th of January. The reason for being so long is because he is a chef on a big oil rig that goes out to see every four weeks and will continue going on four week cycles. So he will be gone for a month then back for a month. He will be baptized when he gets back! He is awesome and knows it is all true. He first learned about the church at his work from a family in Ephraim, Utah.
That is our joy right now! We are still working and hope to have one more baptism before the end of the year.
I hope all is well back home and everyone is freezing cold haha sorry! Love ya all!
