Snow Snow Snow and Bill's Baptism- Nov. 23, 2015

Hey everyone sorry it is so late, the computers at the library were down due to the snow!!!

I hope you have had a great week. Yes we finally got snow. We have about 6-10 inches right now and it just started to snow again.

Monday: We did our normal things. Then we went and met with Bill. We talked about studying the scriptures and to always pray. It was the last couple things we talked about before his baptism.

Tuesday: We went and helped Peggy with some service. We helped her put some tables together and then we helped her to get her stuff ready for thanksgiving. After that we went tracting and then we had an appointment with Susan. She is one of our investigators. We read the Book of Mormon with her and she is doing great. She is understanding it and realizing that it can help her in her life. Then we went and had dinner at a members house. It was great.

Wednesday: We had Zone Meeting. That was great. I love meetings. We talked about having members to help us move the missionary work forward. It was great. We leaned how to better ourselves and how to teach more effectively. It was a great meeting. After that we had our last meeting with Bill before his baptism. We talked about eternal marriage. It was good. We were at a members house so we talked about their marriage and how we can all be with our families forever.

Thursday: We did our weekly planning. We planned for week 2. It is crazy how time flies. after that we went and met with Arlene. We talked about service and about prayer. She is slowly coming around. We also helped her move some stuff upstairs. It was great.

Friday: We went and helped Sister Holmquiest. We helped her to bring her groceries in and then clean her house. It was great. After that we went to Peggy's house and helped her with putting her lights up and decorating her tree. It was great. It is beginning to look like Christmas. After that we went finding and contacting. It was great.

Saturday: It snowed and snowed and snowed. We went to Almont to see Holly. We talked to her about the commandments. It was a great lesson. We talked about why there are commandments and how we should think of them as blessing to protect us. Then we went and saw Sister Robertson. We talked to her about church and why we have a church. We also read the conference talk "Why the Church" It was great.

Sunday: Church was cancelled due to the weather. I have never had church cancelled so that was fun. We did a lot of studding. Then we had Bills Baptism. It went great. We had a lot of people from the ward come and support him. The service went great. He was so happy to be able to get baptized.

Well This week Sister Parker and I are each Ponderizing 2 scriptures. Mine are D&C 25:12 which talks about how the song of the Righteous is a prayer unto God and 2 Nephi 32:3 which talks about feasting upon the scriptures. I encourage everyone to do it. It is a great experience.

Well I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving!!!
