So I am sure that most of you know about the special world wide broadcast we had for missionary work. Well if you didn't watch it you should because it was great. Anyway it talked a lot about the work and how the work is going to be evolving here in the next year or so. Its too bad that I will be missing a lot of the changes but that is ok.
So we had 2 new investigators show up to church yesterday, both of them
were member referrals. It was so cool, one was from the Gilsons. Their
land lord's daughter is a member so she wanted to see what we were all
about. Her name is Mary, we will try and work with her in a bit but I
think she really enjoyed church. We also had the Estradas bring a friend
from work to church and he participated in class. I hope he had a good
time, we are having dinner with them on Wednesday so that will be good
to get some insight into josh. Mark came to church alone this time and
we got him to say the closing prayer for gospel principles and he did a
great job. So we finally had a lesson with Mark and his family, Mark was
put off from the church because of the things he heard about our church
from the history channel. After a while we were able to show him he has
heard all about the church from every one but members of the church.
That opened his eyes. Both him and one of his daughters agreed to take
lessons so that is good to hear.
So Duk.... Duk was supposed to be baptized this Saturday we have
hit some bumps. His girl friend is back in the picture. The first time
we showed up with her there she came to the door and handed us every
piece of church materials we ever gave him. We are kind of the reason
she got kicked out of the house so we thought she was just trying to
scare us off. She seemed a little to happy to hand us the books. The
next time we came over duk came to the door and told us he can't join
because he doesn't believe in the spirit world because it contradicts
the bible. The last time this happened it was because he couldn't quit
smoking. We are pretty sure he is just looking for an easy escape and
with the drama of having his GF back in the house he just wants a break.
She is getting out of the house on the 3rd so hopefully we will be able
to address his concerns then. He doesn't want us in the house right now
because his GF just hates us.
The Shaffers are doing just great, didn't come to church yesterday
because Tabitha has a bad ear infection that caused her to go to the ER
Saturday morning at 4. So we pray she gets better.
