Thanks for the updates! Sounds like things are
exciting with all the events going on. I hear stuff here and there from
the members here but it's good to get the actual reports. I'm glad you
all had fun at East Canyon too! Was there not a lot of snow or just
enough to do your sledding? I'm sure it was very different not having
the whole crew up there. That would be hard. When does Kaylor get off
his mission? Is he extending the amount he was home? That's crazy the
Griffin boy got his call! I didn't think he was that old! Tell him
congrats. How is Brother Griffin doing? Can't remember if you ever
told me how he is doing and his health is now after his scare a year
ago. Hopefully he's good. How's the rest of the ward doing? That's
awesome about Bro Cook being the new ward mission leader. He will do
great. He helped with the stake mission prep so yes, he is very
missionary minded. How has all of your missionary efforts been going?
Keep it up!
Well this week, Valentines day we went and heart
attacked the single ladies in the wards doors. They all sure loved it.
We even stopped by one of the houses and thought we'd go talk to her.
She gave the lesson at church yesterday and said how we were God's
little mercies to her. Her husband died about a year ago and so she was
dreading that day and was headed to bed since she had nothing to do.
Well we showed up just in time and were her little "sweethearts" that
day. I felt really glad that the Lord used us that day when we knew
nobody would be home and let us in. Also this week, we got a hold of
Joe finally and invited him to a baptism the Elders were having. He
said he'd come and also to church! And sure enough he came to both. He
really loved the baptism but felt he can't be baptized yet because he
doesn't know enough. It was kids that were being baptized, and so we
mentioned "do you think they know everything?" He was taken back and
replied "no". We told him that baptism is one of the steps in gaining
more knowledge about the church. You first just need to have faith, and
then make the changes necessary to be spiritually, mentally, and
physically ready to receive the Holy Ghost to help us access that
greater knowledge. So hopefully it sparked something in him and that he
will desire to be baptized soon. First, he still needs to stop
smoking.
Well nothing else really has happened this week
sadly that I can think of. Can't believe February is almost over. I'm
ready for March though. Well I love you all and hope all is well! Take
care!!!!!
