Dear Family,
Go Royals! It sounds like it was an awesome week for ya'll, all around!
This week has been a great one in West Virginia! We've been quite blessed! I loved daylight savings time. It was great!
Gabriel is continuing to progress! We committed him to be baptized on December 5th, (which is the same day as the family history fair we're doing, so it'll be a crazy awesome day!) and he is going to give the Word of Wisdom thing a shot! If I were a better teacher, we would probably already be at this point, but God's making up for all my weaknesses and imperfections, so it's all working out anyway! I love the Atonement!
We also were able to put our new-ish investigator Nora on date for baptism! She is just so cool. She was in a full-blown biker gang, back in the day, and she has some awesome stories!
Probably the weirdest thing that has happened this week was this bizarre lesson we had with a new investigator. We were taking the normal approach, teaching the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, when I noticed Sister Campbell giving me these weird looks and motioning with her head to the wall behind me. I finally looked back, and lo and behold, there was the classic 2nd Coming of Jesus Christ picture on the wall, with the Church's name beneath it. So we asked him where the picture came from, and he had no idea...apparently. And his wife did not either. And it was printed on this super old newspapery paper that was dated April 1983. They were really surprised, and they joked that it must have been old Auntie Hazel, upon whom they blame all the household mishaps. But we're a little suspicious because he has the same last name as some members in the area. Either he is super elect, or we're being pranked pretty hard by some long-lost less active. I'll keep ya updated haha.
Welp, P-Days a-wastin! We're going to go party hard because it's Sister Campbell's last day in the field! Love you all!
