Hey Family, 

This week has been great!!! On Monday, after P-day ended we had some appointments. Our first appointment was a referral, his name is Demetri. We went and saw him and he is super interested in learning more about our Church. We gave him a BOM and he said he would read it!!! We have another appointment with him today. So we have a new investigator!!!! Then we went and saw a less active family and talked with them (The Cagnons) and every time we go over there they always give us food which is awesome!! 

On Tuesday, we did some service at arc and we went and saw a less active lady. we got there and she just came home from the hospital. her kidneys are failing and she isnt doing very well which is super sad!! so we went out tracting. that was such an awesome experience because we went to this neighborhood and we said a prayer to help guide us in the right direction. after we said taht prayer we were looking at the map and we were seeing what road stuck out to us and both of us had a good feeling about the same road. we have a potential investigator so that is good!! then we went and saw one our investigators maryann. she had a rough day so we went a saw her and talked with her. that night we were looking for a less active family and we went to their house and they had moved but the couple that moved in, she was super interested in coming to our church and we taught her about the BOM and she said she would read it and we set up a RA with her so we got another new investigator!!!!! It was great :)  

On wednesday, we had district meeting in wheeling,WV and we talked about recognizing the spirit. It was perfect for me because i have had a hard time doing that so his lesson was good for me!!! after our meeting we went to this pizza place and i had a calzone!! it was really good!!! then we drove home and did some training and mormon.org time. then we had a dinner appointment with some members from our ward. it was good we had meatball subs!!! then we went and saw an investigator marie. then we had correlation with the ward mission leader!! 

On Thursday, we went to see a la lady and she wasnt there so we called people in our phone that we didnt know. i made sooo many phone calls but im use to calling people now!! then we went to a chocolate factory because we had someone cancel on us. the chocolate factory is called sarris's. we had super good ice cream and i bought some chocolates!!! there were super good :)   then we saw bill. he is an investigator. then we went and saw a la lady and we talked about prophets with her!! its amazing how much you truly grow on your mission because that lesson came all by the spirit and it was AWESOME!! 

On Friday, we went and saw an investigator at 9:00AM and she wasnt there so we went back home and did weekly planning. no crazy things happened this time!!! haha :) then after we were done we went and saw maryann and talked to her about addiction recovery because she is a smoker. 

On Saturday, WE HAD A BAPTISM!!!!!!!! Bill got baptized!! I gave a talk on baptism and my comp spoke on the Holy Ghost. After that Bill got up and bore his testimony and the spirit was SOOOO strong!! He had some friends there that werent members and some of them are interested about learning more and we had someone come up to us afterwards and was asking questions which was awesome!!! then we went to maries and had cake for her sons birthday. and while bills baptism was going on we got a HUGE snow storm!! before the baptism there was no snow and afterwards there was at least 2 inches on the ground and was still coming down!!! it was one of the worst snow storms i have ever been in.. but that night we had a service project at the Washington Health Care Center. Its like a nursing home. But we danced with the residents and alot of them were in wheelchairs so we would just push them around. there were a couple of men that would request me to dance with them... it was a little weird!! one of them told me he loved me and kissed my hand.. HAHA super weird! we served their dinner to them, but it was a lot of fun to be able to help them!! 

Sunday, there wasnt a lot of people that came becuase of the snow!! but bill was confirmed!!! that morning we caught a mouse... ewwww!! and the past couple of days it has been really cold and our heater doesnt work like at all so it has been super cold!! so we are hoping to find a new place soon :) but this week was good :) Heavenly Father  gives us the hard things so we can receive the good ones!! This saturday was my one month mark that i have been out!! its crazy, time has flown by!! 

Well i love you all so much and i love being on a mission :) 

Love you,
