Hey family!
It's so
good to hear that everything is going well at home. Mom, I had no idea
that you were going to Florida! That's awesome! I wish I could be soakin' up
some sun right now. The sun hardly ever shines and even when it does, it's
still cold because of the wind. I don't really mind it but I can see how it can
get really gloomy over here. It's funny, whenever we make a comment about how
cold it's getting, someone always makes sure to tell us that it's going to
get worse. Awesome.
Those pictures
of Canada were awesome! I'm glad to see
Mitch wearing his socks and sandals and Maddie that sure is
a nice hoodie you've got on :) But you guys look so grown up!! It's
crazy! You guys will have to let me know how Sadie's goes and if you do anything
fun on Halloween. Can you believe that October is almost over?! I guess that
things can get a little bit sketchy over here on Halloween so we have to be in
our flats by 6. Hopefully we can get a little bit of candy and have our own
little celebration.
So our
new investigator is Georgette! Our lesson went pretty well on Tuesday and we
have another lesson with her tomorrow. She accepted the message of the
restoration very well and I think that she will continue to want to know more.
She shared with us how she would normally never stop and talk to someone
on the street but that when Sister Burch and Sister Rasmusson approached her
for some reason she felt like she should. It definitely strengthened my
testimony that Heavenly Father really is preparing people. It can be hard
when 9 out of 10 people turn you away but when that one person listens it
changes everything. We also were able to contact one of our potentials and he
is really interested and wants to come to church. His name is Thankgod but I
guess people call him Cheezie. Haha! I don't know but he's awesome! We are
hoping to meet up with him this week so I'll let you know how that goes.
Sister
Rasmusson and I had talks in church yesterday and I think that they
went pretty well. Bishop wanted us to speak with one of our recent converts so
we spoke with Samuel. We were supposed to help him with it but he said that he
wanted to surprise us and did it all by himself. He did a really good job! He's
been struggling a little bit and it was good to see him happy and healthy.
I can't believe
that Jenny is home!! That went by so slow and so fast at the same time! Right
now time is going by so slow for me. I'm always asking other missionaries how
long they've been out and they all tell me that even though it
doesn't feel like it, it will go by so quickly. I'm sure that once
things pick up and I'm used to the swing of things that I'll feel the same way.
Thank you for
your support and prayers! I love being a missionary and I know that I couldn't
do it without you. I've learned so much already and I know that this is
something that will bless my life forever. I love you all and I'll talk to you
next week!
Love,
Sister Wilde
