Wolf!

Hey Everyone,

 

Not to much happened this week, but I will still try to tell you about everything.  Last week we were playing basketball and the high school team came in and asked us to play them.  We worked them over pretty good. It was so funny, they were all talking to us and being nice because we could play ball then we told them we were missionary's for the LDS church and they just all walked away and stopped talking to us  haha. It was so funny they were all wondering why we all went by Elder. One young man didn't and he told us to stop by his house after the game so I guess having mad skills pays off.....I'm just saying.

My first baptism will be this Saturday,  a 8 year old girl named Sammie.  She is so funny, she always has the biggies smile on her face and she has red curly hair. Yesterday after church, just when it was over she went up to the stand when everyone was just talking,  she started singing  into the mic "families can be together for ever" and everyone joined in and sang with here it was the cutest thing ever!

We had a zone conference this week with the Mission President.  We talk about how important the book of Mormon is and how we need to use it more and not the bible so all of our lessons this week were on the book of Mormon.  

We went to Bob and Sherie Max,  they are both awesome she is very Catholic and she wont even hold a book of Mormon. so the first think i asked her in the lesson was do you want a copy of the book of Mormon so she can follow along and she said no before i even finished my sentence so we went on with the lesson and we showed her the safety for the sole talk by Elder Holland. You can watch it on  lds.org  after it was over she asked us a few questions about the book of Mormon then she said, can i have a book of Mormon i would like to read it. we didn't even have to ask her after she said that we said yes and Bobs mouths just dropped.  He said this is such a big turn around i can't  believe it. Then they just held hands and cried for like two min. i could not believe it. the book of Mormon has the strongest converting power i have ever seen! well that's it for me this week Love you all!

 

Love Elder Peterson
