Week #10

Dear Family and Friends,

Another fantastic week under the belt. I am still loving the mission and the people that we work with. We have dropped quite a few investigators in the last few weeks so we have been working a lot more with members. We always need more referrals from them so we have built our trust up with a ton of members. However we do occasionally have appointments cancel on us so we end up contacting people on the streets. 

Me and Elder Allen had a great experience this week while contacting. We just went to a potential investigator's home but they weren't there so we started walking around. We looked across the parking lot at an apartment with a little boy waving at us from the other side of a screen door. We walked over to him and he ran away so we decided to knock on the door and share the gospel with the family that was there. The little boy's mother, named Brittney, came to the door and talked to us for a good 10 or 15 minutes. We shared a little bit of the first lesson with her. She told us that she has wanted to be baptized and that she wants her son to be baptized as well. I told her that we have to teach her a few things before she can get baptized. She was so excited to invite us back and meet again. Brittney is so prepared! I cannot wait to continue working with her and help her come closer to her savior.

I have seen how my Heavenly Father puts prepared people in our path so that we can bring them to the knowledge of this beautiful message. I am so grateful for all the people that have helped me get out on a mission. Love you all and hope you have a stellar week.

Love, Elder Scoresby
