Dear Family and Friends,
This week was a good one. We had a baptism--unfortunately no confirmation, which was a bummer--and some real growth with our investigators. And we had three investigators at church yesterday, and a less active family that we have been working with!
Probably one of the best improvements this week was with Janet. She has taken the lessons many times and with many missionaries in the past. We have mostly been reading the Book of Mormon with her in the Children's book lately. She has really grown to love the Book of Mormon. We read about Enos and King Benjamin and afterwards she told us how those stories applied to her without us even asking. At the end of our lesson, she shared that she used to run away from her missionaries when they would come and even when we first started to meet she would come up with some excuse of why she couldn't do it that day. But now, since she has been reading the Book of Mormon, she wants to keep her appointments and she said that she is "feeling a change" in herself. That is so exciting for us! Her prayers have also changed too. Instead of asking if Joseph Smith saw God and if the Book of Mormon is true, she has been saying, "We believe the Book of Mormon is true and we just need to know for sure." Janet attended Sacrament Meeting yesterday and said that she wants to come for all three meetings next week. YAAAYYYY!
We found two new investigators yesterday, Richard and Tammy. They are a couple that both have bipolar disorder. I am really excited to work with them. I just feel that they are going to be open to the truth and the Spirit as we teach them the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ. I am excited to work with some people who are more humble that others and willing to listen and have an honest desire to do and be good.
But the BEST news is that Sister Cunningham and I are staying together for another transfer!!!!!!
I love Sister Cunningham. She makes me laugh and reminds me of Sister Cami Turley a lot. It is like having my sister on my mission with me. We have some great plans for next transfer to tear it up in Everett.
Love ya lots!
Sister Turley
