No 8

Well this week we had the opportunity to go to an Emmanual Faith church it is an Evangelical Church. It was more like a rock concert. We had head aches when we left. Alot more music than we are used to. The sermon was totally directed to us. It was all about grace and that we are all saved by grace. We thought it was just going to be bible study. We are not going to do that again.

We have another investigator we are working with she has also set a baptism date. It seems like we are on fire right now. It is nice to have this kind of success and see people so excited about the gospel. We have Zone Conference this week so I will se McKay. It always fun to see some of my old companions its like a family reunion.

I cant believe in 2 months I will be half way done. Time is going by so fast.
Have you watched that talk by Brad Wilcox yet. It is a BYU devotional. Its called his grace is sufficent.
Well Sunny California has had rain . It is supposed to rain again all day. I'm glad I have my trench coat. It helps on the wet days.

I love you all

Well in this are it just seems like people fall into your lap. Dont take that wrong I am not just about numbers mom. I want to teach but it seems like we are having some good success here. The Zone Leaders called us today.This lady started out just wanting to quit smoking and now she has a baptism date set. This ward is great at being member missionaries. So we have a lot to work with.
I have a couple of things I would like to know. I was wondering if you still have my GPS . Did it survive the crash in the truck, I could really use it. Also mom is it ok if I share your story with investigators. It was a time when my testimony grew a lot and I when I share it the spirit is so strong.

How was Halloween? Send me some pictures.
I Love You All
