1. Tell us more about Debbie's
baptism. Who baptized her? Did you have to do a lot for in preparation for the
baptism? Was it well attended by your ward?
1. A member named Bro. Gourley
baptized her. He is her main member fellowship. We didn’t have to do too much. Our
ward mission leader is awesome and he did most of the work. It was very well
attended. She had a lot of friends come! It was way fun.
2. Did you really buy a coat for $21?
That seems to be what your letter indicated. Tell me more.
2. Yes, really 21$. It’s not super
thick or fancy but it will work for here. It’s just a plain black more like a
jacket but it’s better than a jacket. It’s good though.
So my week was good. It flew by. Nothing
major happened until Friday. We went to Lewiston for zone training and that was
good. Had some big announcements. They are changing things so that we will have
zone conference and interviews every transfer. Usually it’s every other. So that’s
some bigger news for us missionaries. Also they announced the new Christmas
initiative that will be coming out on Nov 25. It’s going to be way cool. I can’t
tell you about it yet because its top secret and us missionaries just got a
sneak peek into it. So be looking forward to that.
On Saturday we had another baptism
for Jamie (the 16-year-old if you forgot). That went well. I’ll send pics of
that. Then we went with our wml (ward mission leader) to a potential’s house and
got confronted by a Native American kid who thought we were evil white people
and got mad at us because we were "knocking doors" on an Indian rez. He
was just bitter and mean so that was interesting. Hadn’t had that happen
before.
We also started teaching a former
Jehovah witness named James. He’s a pretty interesting guy and has had a weird
religious background. He’s interested so that’s cool. On Sunday we had an
awesome lesson with a kid named Arturo. He’s 12 and is living with a member
family. The only reason he hasn’t been baptized yet was because he was going to
move in with his brother, but now he’s not so we put him on date for the 26th
of Nov. So that’s exciting too because we had been praying really hard for his
living situation to change and it did! So that’s the power of prayer for you.
Well thanks for the update. The
weather was a lot better this week. Lots more sunshine.
Well that’s all I got for ya!

This is Jamie. She looks not so happy because the water was cold.
The kids are her family the Masons. They are awesome. Crazy but awesome.
Me standing next to a dead deer. Most people just have the head laying around, but these people had the whole body. Well most of it.
