Down time... for now...
This week was much more relaxed, but at
the same time equally stressful. We had MLC (Mission Leadership Council) with
Elder Martino and came away with some big goals. We want to have a "white
Christmas" as a mission. Our goal is to have 100 Baptisms in the month of
December. We are so excited to help God’s children get on the path back to their
Heavenly Father. These missionaries are amazing!!! So much faith and so much
dedication!
This week we got to spend a lot more
time on the streets in our area. It just happened to be the same week that an
arctic storm blew in! It’s a lot of fun knocking on doors in 13 degree
weather!!! We found 5 new investigators! 2 of them came on a church tour and
came to the first hour of church. 2 of the other 3 said they weren't interested
after our first lesson. But Damien, one of the girl’s boyfriend, said he wanted
to keep meeting with us! We talked about Baptism and the blessings that come
from it and he wanted to learn more! It’s so cool how the Spirit works in other
people.
Caitlin is doing amazing! She went up to
Idaho Falls Sunday and went to the Temple
Visitors Center!!!! I’m so excited to follow up with her on how it went!!! She
leaves this Thursday on a family vacation
and she is planning on telling her family then that she wants to be baptized.
Please pray for her!!!
This Thursday is the 2 year mark of
Madi’s death. I’m doing my best to keep a smile on my face and forget myself.
Please pray for Madi’s family. Remember the ones you love and tell them you
love them. Life is short, make the most of it.
Your
Missionary,
Elder
Eldredge
