Week 92: The Work Moves On

We had a really cool opportunity to get in contact with an awesome part member family called the Squires. He has been a member his whole life but she grew up never attending a church at all. We are pretty much starting from scratch with teaching her so that will be so awesome. They had us over for dinner on last Tuesday and they are having us over for dinner again tonight. We will start the real lessons tonight.

We had a really good lesson with a guy named Victor Ewing. We have been visiting with him for a while. Missionaries, in general, have been visiting with him for a long time but now he is getting really close to being ready for baptism. He was talking about how he believes in the messages that the Book of Mormon contains but is not quite sure yet if Joseph Smith is a prophet. For me those, go hand in hand so we are just needing to help him realize that one.

Saturday was a total downpour and we had to help a family move. It was not the most exciting move and it was actually extremely cold. I had to come home after the move and take a hot shower just to warm up. The rest of the day we had members who were willing to go out on visits with us and to see people in our area. When we do splits on Saturdays we focus on part-member families and less active members. It was nice to stay our of that weather.
