Well
it has been another great week! But today I don’t have much time to e-mail so
I will be fast!
First thing is that Elizabeth was baptized this Saturday and then confirmed
on Sunday, she asked me to baptize her and then a member that was teaching
with us confirm her. The funny thing was that after the baptism to my
surprise I didn’t get wet past the knees…. So I was able to dry off really
fast…. She was just a little smaller than me, and as I was looking at the pics
they make me look really big haha I don’t think I should gain anymore weight haha
but that’s a little hard being in Pembroke. Which brings me to my next point,
I'm staying here for at least another 6 weeks but Elder Yankton is leaving and
tomorrow I will have a new comp! I have no idea who it will be but I think the
Lumbees will miss there big Native American missionary. I'm really
loving it in this ward and I think they love me too haha I am so glad I can
stay for another 6 weeks.
Along with the baptism a really great thing was the fact that we had a lesson
with a less active member and didn’t even have to ask if she knew anyone that
we could teach, but just told us that her sister just moved with her and is
the only member in her family that isn’t a member, so we got out there Saturday
morning and knocked on their door and instantly they let us in and broke the
ice, they talked about how they wanted to start coming to church and it was a
really good visit but they had to be going so we set a return appointment and
invited them to church.
After that we drove to the less active member’s home
and told her all about it and she said that the husband had read the entire
book of Mormon and kept it on his ipad! Then the next day at church they all
came! There are a lot of good thing that will be coming soon!
Well I got to go and I love you all! Be safe and strong!
