"Things are going great here in the Morgantown area. As of
this week we have three baptismal dates set for February sixth and seventh and
we anticipate more during this coming week. On Friday our district drove down
to Charleston and got to hear Elder S. Gifford Nielson speak. (They had bottled
water for all of us so we were taken care of) It was incredible and everyone in
the mission learned a ton. I feel very blessed to have heard the testimonies of
so many of God's servants while I have been out here. One of our investigators
is a chemical engineer named Josh and he's extremely quiet until he talks about
sports so we got the breakdown of the Bronco's game. Haha. Elder Sorensen is a
Chargers fan so he's doing the dishes for the week since they lost the game. It's awesome to hear about member missionary work in St.
Johns, I didn't realize how big it was until I got here. Referrals and members
being present for lessons are the two biggest differences in mission success.
Yesterday we watched a CES Devotional by Elder Tad R. Callister of the Seventy.
He broke down the blueprint of Christ's church in the New Testament and
compared it line for line to the restored church. If you have a chance I would
definitely recommend watching it. As a member it would have given me a lot of
confidence in telling others about the gospel and it helps reinforce and
strengthen testimonies. I can't wait to hear from you guys again and hope you
have a great week. I love you all so much."
