I do not have much time at all!
Wed. Jan. 14: We played ball at the church for P-Day.
Thur. Jan. 15: Today was transfer day. We said Goodbye, Elder Carter (to Portsmith, OH). Hello, Elder Ence, who is in the same transfer group as I am!
Fri. Jan. 16: We had three appointments today - and they all fell through.
We had a lot of success contacting former investigators.
We saw a dead squirrel on the side of the road and Elder Caldwell was determined to cut off it's tail. He was unsuccessful. ;)
Sat. Jan. 17: The Meador's came up to fellowship/join us for our lesson with Matt. Matt's daughter, Jasmine (age 10), also wanted to take the discussions! She was really excited to hear she can be baptized with her dad! So, they are both on date for baptism March 7. Matt was testifying to her during the lesson! The Spirit was strong! Matt is also down to one cigarette a day! We got Jasmine the Gospel Library app on her iPod and the Book of Mormon stories picture book. She started reading from that!
Sun. Jan. 18: We had four investigators at church! (Matt, Jasmine, Tom Poe, and Sister Cline!) We had seven as a district!
We taught Tom Poe after church with the Rogusky's. Tom just has to be taught very simply and slowly. We also taught the Shuck's that night with Bro. Geisler and they fed us!
Also, with 10 minutes before we were to turn in to our apartment for the night, we decided to knock three more doors with lights on. We found someone on the last door! The man who answered was a very muscular, hairy, intimidating-looking man. We asked if we could share a message about our beliefs and Jesus Christ. He said, "Come in!" He went to put on a shirt, and when he came back we had a great 10 minute lesson. We gave him a Book of Mormon and he asked us to come back when his wife was home! His name is Kevin Harvery!
Mon. Jan. 19: We had a very nice P-Day; relaxing and letter writing.
We found a great potential investigator who took a Book of Mormon and works at the Greenbrier! We keep finding great potential investigators!
We had a great week! We had five member-present lessons, five new investigators, and four investigators at Sacrament meeting!
The Lord is hastening His work!
Love You All!
-Elder Brenchley
