Humidity is a killer!

Hi!
I'm doing great! I have been working hard and I can't believe this
transfer is half way over because that means I probably only have 3
more weeks here. I'm excited for change but sad because this ward has
become my family. I know everyone and I love everyone so much in this
ward!

Diane is going to be baptized this Saturday and she asked me to
baptize her so I am excited and nervous at the same time! But we have
it all planned and she is going to be baptized at 11:00am this
Saturday!! It is cool to see someone from the beginning of teaching
her all the way to her baptism! We have decided to move Janet's
baptism day back to give her more time to grow her testimony. But ya those are my investigators for you.

We have gotten stuck in the rain a handful of times but that's just
what happens being a walking missionary. I absolutely love walking
around talking to people. It is so much fun to OYM and give out Book
of Mormons. I am trying to get used to the humidity but it can be
killer.

Spiritual experience this week was we were teaching this part member
family named the Bains. And I have never had the spirit help me be
able to figure out people's needs like this lesson. I was sitting
there teaching the restoration and I felt the prompting to ask if she
believed the story of Joesph Smith. And she looked at me and said "I
have had the missionaries over a lot and they teach the same thing but
none have asked me that before and honestly I'm not sure." And from
there we were able to address that need to find out what is keeping
her from believing the first vision. Afterwards she thanked us and
said she never had a missionary lesson like that before.

Other cool experience is we got notified that someone requested a
bible. So we went to her house to drop off a bible and Book of Mormon
and she wanted us to come back over and teach her. So we did and it
was a pretty cool lesson she is open to learning and to change she
came to church yesterday and brought her 3 little kids and they seemed
like they had a great time! She wants us to come back and teach her
family more!

Well that was my week full amazing blessings. My favorite scripture
that couldn't be more actuate for the week is Alma 26:12. I couldn't
have done any of this without the help of Heavenly Father and Jesus
Christ. Without them I truly am nothing.
