Another Miracle

Hello familysicles!

So i've heard a ton of stories how y'all are just freezin up there. Down here it's not so much. Actually the past few days have been high 70's low 80's. I'll probably take my jacket off today because i was sweating a lot as i was heading over here. But the weather says it should cool down to the 60's later this week (brrr!).

 

Well Timicas baptism didn't happen this week. But don't worry it wasn't because of smoking or anything. Actually friday she had a friend who died so she had to leave town suddenly for the funeral and didn't make it back home until last night. So we will be seeing her tonight and setting up her baptism for this upcoming Saturday. I'm not too worried because i know Timica and how much she loves God and how much she wants to be baptized. So just a week longer is all.

 

We had another miracle this Sunday though! So Holly comes in to church and says, "I have a referral for you!" Instantly Elder Tippetts and i asked if she was sure if it wasn't in the other elders area (their area is a lot bigger so they get all the referalls). But then she told us that she lives close to Holly so she knows she in our area. Her name is Elizabeth and she is now best friends with Holly (which means she'll get baptized). I've figured something out, every person Holly has given a ride to church has been baptized, just sayin. Anyway I guess Elizabeth has been searching for answers for a while and a fellow student told her to check out the Mormons. So she came to church, met Holly, now they're best friends, and they've already had some discussions together. Elizabeth came to dinner at the Berry's yesterday and she wants to hear the lessons. So we swapped info and we'll be seeing her this week! As crazy as it sounds we'll probably baptize her on Feb. 2. So pray for that to happen!

 

Hey I got that just because package! I loved it so much. It was so funny because i was just saying last monday how much i wanted some lime chips. I haven't had them in forever. So that's almost gone, and that magnificent sobe was gone by the end of the day. Thank you so much!

 

Also i sent out my memory cards right before i came over to the library. About time right?

 

Tell Grandma Smith that Holly got her present and she loved it. And to be expecting a letter from Holly soon. And also tell her that i love her and so do all of my companions. :)

 

Hmmm, besides all that stuff it was a pretty average week i guess. Nothing too amazing or fantastic (besides that stuff).

 

Well i'm sorry that's all i got for ya i think!

 

But i love y'all!
