A Texan Thanksgiving
Hey everyone it is great to hear from you all each week. Thanksgiving was awesome. this nice old couple that we tracted into about a month ago called us up and wanted us to come over for thanksgiving lunch. Rc and Jamie fletcher was there names. the food had a lot of butter in it but really good. we had turkey, jello, stufing, carrot cake and some other stuff. they don't really like to talk about three things religion, politics,and sports because it causes contention. but they have asked some questions about what we do and about are religion, I think they will become members some day. Then the Evans had us over and it was so good, we had Turkdunkin it was so good. It has stuffing, turkey, duck, and bacon wrapped around it. the duck meat is brown meat and is so good. we had peacan pie and pumpkin pie. we hanged out with them and just relaxed the rest of the day. I know fried turkey is so good with all the spices and stuff.
The People
this friday lois one of our recent converts is getting married to a reactivated member it is going to be in the churh because they have to wait for a year before they can be married in the temple.
we have been contacting all the former investigators and less actives last week and we had some success. we found three people that are interested and we are teaching them. the first one is Brenda Hogg, she is really nice lady and we are trying to teach her family so they can give her support and getting her to church every week because she is handicaped. the other two is Chris and Wendy Burrientos they are penticostal, really nice and really interested in the Book of Mormon and we told them all about the Book of Mormon and we commited them to read and to pray to see if it is true.
Cassie Seagrest one of our investigators that we have been working with for quite awhile she finally went to church and she loved it and she was reading the Book of Mormon all the way back to her house. we are going to focus on her and seeing if we can get her to be baptized in December.
oh yeah we were tracting the other day and ran into a black penticostal guy and he wanted to discuss about the Godhead. we talked with him and told him about what we do and what we believe in, then told him that we believe that the godhead is three seperate beings Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost. he told us that if we found a scripture in the bible saying that they are three seperate beings he would give his trcuk to us and we said we don't want your truck, we tried to explain our purpose then he said how about if you find a scripture I will get you guys anything you want in the store or even better I will be baptized. we said why are you willing to give up your truck and he said I know I am right. with these kind of people that want to bible bash and try to bring you down, the only thing you can do is bear in testimony and explain purpose.
