It's been a pretty
crazy and really busy week! I am now in
Oskaloosa with Elder Tall, he was in Keokuk for half a transfer when I was in
Burlington so we already knew each other and we get along great! He's a hard worker and follows the spirit so
it makes life a little bit easier. We're
in a branch here but like most branches there are some great members here to
support. I've already gotten to know a
few of them and they are super nice.
Quite a lot has happened since I've been here. We went finding a few times and found 3
possibly 5 new investigators. One
of them is a really nice family who invited us in for dinner the other night
and we were able to have a great spiritual discussion. On Sunday we had a great surprise when 2
investigators that we thought we would have to drop because they wouldn't
return our calls or anything just showed up at church. We had a lesson with them after and the
mom, Candy decided to quit smoking
and broke her cigarettes right there and threw them away. The son charley is a little slow but is a super
awesome really funny kid and is really excited about getting baptized. They'll
be baptized at the end of the month.
Today we went to Penn college because there is a soccer pick-up game
there every Monday and we got talking to Eric a guy from Africa who has been
here for 6 months and he said he wants to learn about our church so we have a
lesson with him on Wednesday. This area
is amazing and there is SO much more potential here! It's so great to be here and be a part of it!
Love Elder
