C Falls Transfer Three Week Two

This week was really exciting. We set a baptismal date with Jennifer Burgess (She was the member referral family) for October and her whole family came to church this week. We have been trying to be able to sit down and teach the husband as well but havent been able to yet. Hopefully his attendance at church will open him up to us a little more. I am really excited for them. They have truly been prepared by the Lord to hear His gospel. I absolutely love this area and the people we meet here. Lately I have had alot of time to study the Book of Mormon and I truly love this book. I am so thankful for all those who sacrificed so much so that we could have it. Thank you all for your letters and especially nana and papa for the orange rolls. i was so excited to get them. theyre almost gone already. love you all.

CFalls Transfer Two Week Four

aloha!!! this week has been pretty good. things are starting to pick up around here and the weather is cooling down a bit too which makes things even better. i absolutely love this area and im hopin to stay for another couple transfers. cant believe how fast this one is going by. we taught a new family this week. the one cj referred us to last week. the dad was in and out of the lesson unfortunately but the mom , jennifer, seemed really interested and had good questions. we had another apointment with them on sat but somethin came up and they werent there. i was sad about that but hopefully well get back with them soon. we also had an awesome referral from mormon.org this week. we taught a guy named mike and brought him a bible and shared the restoration with him and were bringing him a book of mormon this week. hes younger in his low twenties but a nice guy and understands alot about the gospel already just from what he was talkin to us about. hes gonna go into the army next year and was wantng to make sure he had things right with god before he left. perfect opportunity for him to learn about the church. so were excited to teach him. thats bout it though. mary beth is still stuck out of town and we dont know whats going on with her. thank you all so much for your letters and prayers. i miss you all but am enjoying the work. give hankers the lovins for me.
