Monday was Lucrezia's Baptismal interview with President Ward and it lasted an hour
and a half! Afterwards though President Ward let Elder Colton and I know she isn't
ready for baptism yet. It was super sad but we will still be teaching her and she is still
interested so that's good. Also, while we were waiting during the interview, Sister Ward
was sitting with us and she got a call from her father!!!! And if you don't know, her father
is Dallin H. Oaks!!! Elder Colton and I just started going crazy and telling her to tell him
hi for us. It was pretty neat.
Wednesday, we met with Darlene and went over the Baptismal interview questions. The
room was just filled with the Spirit and she bore such an awesome testimony to us.
Darlene is seriously so awesome and just so sincere. She is just so happy and excited
about the gospel and it is such a wonderful thing to be a part of. We also had some
great visits with Sister Betancé and Rachel Russo that night. As well, we had a visit with
a referral Elder Dixon and I sent to some Elders in the Santa Rosa mission, but she was
in Roseville so we met with her and we helped her a ton! Wednesday was a great day.
Thursday was Zone Conference and it was all about being a representative of Jesus
Christ. It was so great and the Spirit was so strong there! It made me truly think about
what I am doing and how I am supposed to be. It was super beneficial for me. Also, it
was great seeing all my MTC pals and other missionary friends:)
Friday we had an interesting experience where we knocked on a door and we heard the
lady inside say, "Kevin! Get the door! I can't get it because I'm getting surrounded so If I get up I will die!" So yeah, I guess the lesson learned is don't interrupt this lady's video game time. haha
Saturday we had some awesome lessons with Michelle, Darlene and Mike Williams so
that is always great! Sunday, we had such an awesome lesson with Sister Betancé!
Elder Colton asked her what she believes about the Restoration and she said in tears, "I
know that it is true! As much as I try to deny it, I can't." The Spirit was so powerful and it was one of the most spiritual experiences I have had so far. We also had dinner that
evening with one of the family's we are teaching so that was great.
Anyways, I love each and every one of you dearly and appreciate all the support. I hope
you all have a fantastic week <3
