NOV 3
Spooky
Days!
November
is officially here! That spooks me a little! More spooky than Dad without
facial hair ;) Glad to hear Halloween was well out there in Utah! It was
another grand one out here in Georgia! And it has officially turned cold! It
dipped below freezing for a time. We even some scattered flurries! We are in
for a cold one! Cold as the rockies!
Up:
Monday, we were fulfilling the expectation of making forty calls and by the
40th call we struck the one we needed to find. We spent the next 20 minutes
mourning with Isha, bearing her burden. She weepingly informed us that she had
just barely gotten off the phone with someone who has her in between a rock and
a hard place. She had nowhere else to turn, yet the Lord prepared a way for us
to truly represent Him. It was so touching to me to have this intimate moment
with someone who I had never spoke to or known before. The Lord is certainly
preparing people! He has also prepared me so that I could be ready when called
upon!
Up:
Bro. Valvo from the Twin Oaks Ward, a member that I got to know really well,
actually moved intot he ward boundaries. He was moved over here by the VA
recently. It was really good to hear from him and how well he was doing. He won
his court case and is almost out of the mess he was in when I first met him
nine months ago! I also got to see John Steele at the Trunk or Treat! He is
doing well!!
Down:
The Halloween costume, well, my companions copied me.
Up:
Tuesday we had our team up coming out with us, our appointments set. The Lord
had to steer us elsewhere, as we discovered. The meetings fell through, but in
passing we met the neighbor of our investigator. His name is Jatayvious, and he
actually started speaking to us. We quickly found out that he had been
searching for truth for the past five years. He has an infant son who is 8
months old, and was recently married. They both have been looking for a church
home where they can raise their family correctly! He told us he was pulled into
talking to us and that he felt something he had never felt. He even asked us
when he and his family could be baptized. To which we responded, November 29th.
We are looking forward to meeting with them more. He was unable to come to
church due to work, but his he has work off this next Sunday!
Thanks
for the email as usual! I am glad y’all are so reliable! Please let me know
what I can do to help! Fight the good fight, keep the shield of faith up, keep
the Armor of God on always! Have another blessed up week! Love you all so
much!!
Love,
Elder
