Records Broken

We had 5 Investigators at church! Which is huge! haha I have never had that many there before! We saw so many miracles out here this week and we are having so much fun! I’ll just go through and tell you about our investigators.

Justin Sehna and his Family.
So last transfer we knocked into them. The mom and the step dad and the 15 year old daughter are members. They moved here from Wisconsin last summer. We transferred their records. They have about 10 kids all under the age of 8 besides one! haha And the mom is due this month! So Justin is 10 he is a stud, Christina is awesome too, we can tell she was active where they lived last. The mom also has 2 of her brothers living there, one of them is a new investigator that was supposed to come to church, but he didn't for some reason. Justin is getting Baptized on the 19th!

Peter and Lihne Artui.
They are from Pohnpei just like Justin and his family. They are related some how too but are not on speaking terms for some reason. We found out Peter is next in line to be king of an island in Pohnpei! We read 3rd Nephi 11 with him and he was almost in tears! He said it really hit home for him and his people. He even is giving us address's for more families in town that are from Pohnpei because he wants them all to have this message! So we’re teaching several families from there now. Him and his wife lihne were out of town this past week so they didn't make church. He also said when he goes back to Pohnpei he is going to preach the Book of Mormon to his people!!

Jennifer and Matt Olsen.
So Matt is a Less active recent convert, but we got him and his Girlfriend to church! We have taught them several times now and she is on date to be Baptized on June 16th!

Barry and Jackie Huff.
So they are our neighbors right across the hall, we have taught them a lot. They even have us over for dinner! Pretty stubborn with the church, but they love us a ton cause they never get visitors. We finally got them to come to church tho, it took a lot of convincing haha. They even dressed up for it. It was awesome to see Barry in a shirt and tie! We sat right by them, there were a lot of people at church cause it was ward conference. That evening we went over to chat about church and when we walked in Jackie was shaking her head and she said she didn't like it! She said she just didn't get a good feeling like she normally does. hahaha She also told us how stubborn she is. hahaa We’re working on getting her to church with a good attitude instead of going just to say she doesnt like it. haha

Also teaching Ryan Baker.
We were shoveling snow for a widow in the ward when he walked up and said "have you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior?" We said yes. haha Then we talked and he chilled out and we have taught him a little bit. But turns out the widow we were shoveling snow for is really good friends with him and his dad! So she gave him a ride to church and he is on date to be Baptized June 23rd!

I love sharing the Gospel! Everything changes with Missionary work when the sun is shining and its warm outside, so we’re lovin life! People are out and about and so are we! People are a lot happier too! Oh and we sang karaoke at the old folks home! They loved us there, I sang supercalifragilisticexpealidoshish. idk how to spell that but it was fun!

The church is true! Love,
