Dear Familia,
How the heck are ya? The work here is going pretty well. We have a
baptism tomorrow night which is going to be pretty cool. It is the
son of a less active family and because he is getting baptized they
have been coming back to Church. It is awesome. We also have Abby's
coming up on the 3rd of march. This past week also we actually sat
down with this other part member family, who is just a single mom with
a nine year old child. They have lived in Roseburg for about a year
and have not been to church at all so we had them on a list of people
that we were supposed to contact for the High Priest group leader. We
were riding by their house one day and they were outside and so we
started talking with them and I was playing catch with a football with
Ian, the son, and we set up a time to come back because she wanted him
to have the opportunity to choose to be baptized. We took a member
who lives around the corner from her and went and invited him to be
baptized and he said he wanted to and was super excited. He also
showed us his Nerf gun collection which is insane!! He has more of
them than anyone that I have ever met. It's awesome. We did have
zone conference this week and it was really good. We talked about
becoming and staying clean and pure all the time so that we are not a
hindrance to the work. It was very spiritual. President Young is
an amazing man. I love that guy. Elder Ludlow was sick again and so we
stayed in most of one of the days. I just did some more reading and
cleaning, It was really fun...... let me tell ya. It has been a bit
more rainy the past week too. It is not very fun riding in the rain
and getting everything soaked! I have to keep everything in a plastic
bag so that it doesn't get soaked through. I have been studying about
miracles lately and I realized that they go on everyday in everyone's
life. We just have to open our eyes and see them. People say that they
don't happen anymore, its bologna. We see it all the time. We also
had a good lesson with Priestly's. It was the son and mother I told
you about last week but we taught the father this time also. Jared is
going to come and play ball with us on Wednesday night so that will be
sweet. We found out last night he has a scholarship to U of O to play
up there. Apparently, he is pretty dang good. We explained to them
about being led to the Spirit and they felt the same way. I
love those guys! Well hope you all have an amazing week. Open your
eyes to the miracles that go on daily. Love you.
Love,
