Hello, hello. I am doing good. We had a good week. Full of Friendship, happiness, and fun! This week we met a lot of new people, got our selves some new investigators, etc.
We met a guy named Joseph Luther. His wife's name is Christina. He actually works for Bro. Cates, a member in our branch and the branch mission leader. So it's pretty sweet! He ordered a Lamb of God video about a year ago and he hadn't heard the message that we share. So we shared it with him and he became interested! We are also teaching his wife. She wasn't interested at first. We asked her if she had heard of the Book of Mormon. She said yes. We asked her what she had heard about it. She said, "Nothing good." So we cleared up a lot of misconceptions including the one whether we believe in Jesus Christ or not. Then she became interested, which is good. :)
We wanted to set a lot of baptismal commits this week but a lot of dogged appointments happened. So we didn't get to meet with a lot of people that we wanted to this week but that is ok.
This week for Conference, we came up with a flyer to give to the members. They, in turn, gave the flyer to a non-member friend. We actually had success with it. Bro. Barnes, a member, brought two of his friends and they have questions as well, which is good. So it was a success. Unfortunately, we didn't have any of our current investigators come, but things happen. Things will improve, I know they will.
Conference was really good. My favorite talk would have to be by Jeffery R. Holland. He talked about the Savior and how he was alone in part of the Atonement. But he is always with us. It made me feel comforted. :)
So overall, it was a good week. This is up coming week in Easter. It is a time to turn our thoughts on Jesus Christ and what he had to go through. Remember him throughout this week and always. I want to testify that I know Jesus Christ lives! I am grateful to he his servant and messenger. I love all of you and thanks for the prayers and support. I pray for you as well. Hope all is well!
Love,
Elder Parker
