Hello dear family and all. How are all of you doing this fine day? Well, this week the question of the moment... Oh! So you want to hear the exciting part first?! Well, we were able to teach our newer investigator (the one that we thought disappeared, but came back) - we taught her 2 this week. And! We set a baptism date with her for December 1! That was exciting. Yes, indeed. And! This weekend we are having a baptism! The investigator who had been exploring the church for the last 2 years and has been consistently coming to church since January and already has a calling in the primary and she had been out of town in the month of September and is back and was interviewed and passed and is getting baptized this weekend. Pretty exciting, yes indeed. So that's the real exciting news. Otherwise, we are still trying to teach and help increase people's faith in Jesus Christ. One of our investigators, well, he's got his walls up and is being stubborn and a little argumentative, but then wants to know and learn... The 13 year old son, well he is doing just great. He is so funny though. So, funny. Just got to be there to know it. Otherwise, we haven't been able to meet with any of our other investigators. Due to being busy, doctor appointments, or being doubtful. Yep. Oh, one of our investigators...whom we haven't been able to meet with for a whole transfer and a week...well, she had her birthday on Dad's birthday! So this past Saturday, we made her a card and left it with her grandmother to give to her. So yep... really that's our investigators in a nutshell. Oh...and the person we were hoping to pick up last week...he canceled :( Life of a missionary. Period. But we did miraculously have 4 member present lessons with investigators. We strive hard to do that and for the last while we were struggling to get any, but we finally did! Yea! We've also been meeting some possibly potential investigators...and trying to get back in contact with them... One step at a time... We've been visiting some of our less actives and trying to uplift and help them increase their testimonies. Talking about testimonies, I'd like to share mine. I know that God loves me. I know that He loves all of His children. I am so grateful for the scriptures. The testimonies we have about God, His love, and about Jesus Christ, who is our Savior and Redeemer. I am grateful for Jesus Christ and the atoning sacrifice He paid for us. He truly does know what each of us goes through. He understands our feelings, our weaknesses, our concerns, our pains, our confusion, He understands it All. Yes, sometimes we go through hard things. But we do not go through it alone. He is there to uplift us. He is there to carry us through. But we must reach out to Him. I am so grateful for the scriptures. I love reading through them. Learning about the experiences the prophets went through. I am so grateful for the history, the prophecies, and the testimonies that are contained in them. I am so grateful for God's plan for us. It truly does help us to become better - improvement is good. Necessary to help us become a God-loving people. I know this is God's true church. I know it with all the fiber of my being. And I am grateful for my mission. And for all of the support you all lend me. Thank you! Love always, Sister Walston
