Hello hello, I'm having issues with my memory card so I stole some photos from my companion. I hope these will satisfy until I figure out my own issue. Story of my life eh? :) But things are grand here. We've found some great new investigators, the VC is keeping steady, I'm growing and stretching, home life is grand, I really can't complain. Nor do I have things to update on. So much happens that I sit down to write and my mind goes blank. Probably because I'm exhausted. We've started going to bed before 10:30pm. The photos: 4093: A baptism we had last month. 4129: Remember how I wrote home about when Sister Porter opened up the Bible and got her answer to a prayer? This was taken right after it. It was raining. 4198: My "snap pea cake" made by Sister Porter on my birthday. 4235: A cake that some of our investigators made for me. 4246: Hand embrodered by Sister Porter... her gift to me. I absolutely love it. She's so good to me. :) 4294: Lunch after district meeting. We all look like we could be related. L to R: Sisters Payne, Porter, Moore A while back we got a referral to the Marriott Fairfield Inn for the General Manager. Turns out she was a less active member but have been visiting her since. We tried to see her again the other night before we headed home because we felt like we should but she wasn't there so we started talking to the other woman at the front desk. We start asking her about her belief in God and she says, "I always ask people who believe in God 'How do you know'?" She needs the lvoe of God in her life. We gave her a card and testified and went on our way. As I walked out the door, the Spirit constrained me. I turn to Sister Porter and ask, "DO you have a BOok of Mormon on you?" "Yes" she replies. We turn around and teach her about the Book of Mormon. She lit up. She has been reading since. We's such a neat lady! However, for a more humorous side of this story, while we were teaching about the Book of Mormon, this very elderly man comes up with a napkin full of cookies, places it in my hands, and hugs us both. He calls himself an "angel from heaven" and continues to carry on about the subject. It was pretty funny. Pretty sure he had had a little alcohol in him. Sadly, he probably didn't remember anything we said. The adventures of tracting, eh? I got my hair cut yesterday. Don't worry... it'll grow out by the time I get home. I love it. It's easy to manage. I don't have to spend half an hour on it every morning. Sorry for the short note, but I know this work is true. I know God lives, that He sent His son, Jesus Christ, to atone for us so we could experience all we have. It's beautiful to know that the Supreme Being love and cares for us individually and has given us these teachings in the gospel to follow, embrace, and love. I've never been happier. This church is true. Christ lives! Shall we not go on in so great a cause? Always, Sister Moore
