Devon Week 34 1/2 - from 2/2

Happy Ground hogs day!!

This week I got a new companion and his name Elder Logan Jones.  He is from Casper Wyoming.  He is really cool and chill.  We already get along with each other.  This week I went around and introduced Elder Jones to members and our investigators.  All of them like him :).  

This week we taught Jen about following the prophets and fast and tithing.  We also asked her about baptism and learned that her mom will not let her get baptized.  So we asked Jen if we could meet with her Mom and explain to her about our religion and she said yes.  We asked Jen to fast this Sunday to know if she wanted to get baptized and she said that she would!  We got to meet with the Dickerson's and they are on of the coolest families that are investigating in the church. They are so solid.  The only problem that missionaries had in the past with them is they could not set appointments but those missionaries set some good seeds.  Now we have weekly appointments with the Dickerson's!  At this rate they will be baptized soon.  The Taylor's are still progressing.  The last time we taught them I got a small impression to ask her to be baptized and I didn't  because I didn't feel a strong enough impression.  So this week I am going to pray about it and find out what the Lords plan is for them.

We had many less active members at church which made me happy because I know that they are trying to come back even thought it is hard for them and that they want to feel the spirit.

We were walking down the road and I saw 3 cars outside and I thought about going over there and tract that one house because I felt a good feeling and then I thought to myself Na will just go and continue contacting. then as soon as i turn my head from that house I feel bad and I feel like I made a mistake so I knew that I had to go to that house.  I told Elder Jones that I wanted to tract that house. I knock on the door and meet Levi who was a former investigator that missionaries in Rexburg had dropped because he said he would think about being baptized!  When I heard that I was surprised that the missionaries dropped him.  He was really nice and may be a potential investigator.

Love,

Devon
