We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We invited some non-members, a new convert and Angelina over for dinner. Bro. Moody (the new convert) is the only one who was able to come. We had a great time as we were able to get to know him better. He has a sweet spirit. He just received the Priesthood and wants to “do it right.” We have the opportunity to pick him up for church each Sunday, and the more we get to know him, the more we appreciate his testimony and his attitude about life. He never complains.The day after Thanksgiving we took leftovers to the investigators and had a good visit with Lasonya. We talked about how important it was for her and Jimmy to come to church. We picked them up along with Bro. Moody and Cynthia, a friend, and brought them to church. I had a class of 5 today (Elder Bethers joined us). It was a good class as they participated well and the spirit was strong. Cynthia knows her scriptures and commented often. We gave her a Book of Mormon and she said she would like to come again. We know that we have many praying for us while we are here, please add Jimmy & Lasonya, Crystal and her family, and those who are now being introduced to the church that they will have the desire to make the necessary changes in their lives that will allow them to be baptized. There are so many things that we take for granted that so many others have to do without. We are so blessed.
