Antietam????

February 8, 2016

What's up guys!!!

I hope y'all had a fantastic week, because we did!!! The snow is pretty much completely gone now and it is 60 degrees and sunny, so happy spring!! This week we put 2 more of our investigators (Alvin and Lawrence) on date to be baptized, both of them for March 5! We are seeing some awesome miracles here in Antietam! We can definitely see the Lord's hand in the work, we wouldn't be able to do anything if it weren't for Him! I'm gonna tell you about our lesson with Alvin because it was one of the most spiritual I have been in on my mission! When we first got there his Book of Mormon was out and it looked like it had been read 100 times and he showed us where he was in Alma 5 and every verse on that page was marked and there were notes all throughout the margins and he told us that he loves reading it, but he still hasn't received his answer about whether it is true or not. So we got down on our knees and Alvin said the most sincere prayer that I had ever heard anyone say my whole life. The entire time the Spirit was unbelievably strong. After he finished the prayer we sat in silence for no joke 5 minutes and let the Holy Ghost testify to him. After that we put him on date to be baptized for March 5. It was such a money lesson! Also we taught Mary again and she is still super excited for February 27, Antietam is gonna see some baptisms for the first time in a while!! And we got to go to the DC temple was awesome!

Also we had another miracle this week, this guy was walking past our church on Sunday and decided that he would just stop in and check it out randomly. So he shows up to sacrament meeting and the ward fellowshipped him super hard! We are gonna start teaching him on Tuesday and he is gonna come back to church next week because he loved it! So stoked!!

Also I'm super pumped that the Broncos won the Super Bowl:):) Anyways, I hope y'all have a great week!
