Hey Fam!

We started this
week off on exchanges with some elders in our zone that have been struggling
lately because of some health issues. Nevertheless the exchange that we had
went really well! We were able to pick up a new investigator, Sheila, and we
got to hit the streets and contact a bunch of people. As we taught Sheila, it
was really cool to see the change of heart that she had as we taught her about
the Book of Mormon. At first she was very stand off-ish and wasn't down with
changing anything. As we taught about Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon her
countenance changed and she was then really excited to read the Book of Mormon.
The Book is legit!!
We found a
gigantic spider in our apartment!
Sunday night we
were flying around trying to find a new investigator because we had only found
one so far that week so far. Everyone that we were trying by was bailing too
hard on us. Uh oh!! The Lord is at the helm though so there was no need to
fear. We stopped by a potential that somebody referred to us, her name is
Valentine, and she is from Africa. That day she had been really bummed out
about how wicked the world was and in particular how wicked Baltimore was. (For
your information, yes it is in fact a wicked place) She was losing hope in the
world until she saw us walking up to her apartment to knock on her door. She
immediately let us in and we taught her, her husband John, and then 4 of her
children that are from the ages of 16 to 22 and picked all 6 of them up as
investigators! It was so sick!!!! I love teaching families!!! The Spirit was so
strong and they were all so excited to read the Book of Mormon. Such a sweet
miracle!
Yesterday we
got the call that I will be getting transferred this Wednesday. I'm super
bummed to be leaving Baltimore but I'm pumped for what lies ahead! I'll be
going to Fairview, Pennsylvania as the junior companion to a district leader.
It's gonna be so sick!!!! This will be my first time serving out of Maryland.
I'm gonna miss this place though!
Have a good
week!!!
