This is the famous cheese head that EVERYONE AND THEIR DOG HAS HERE! hahaha Go green bay!!!!
OKAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hello friends and family!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) SO this email won't be as long as they have been in the past!
Sister Green and i have been working HARD in this area and especially this transfer!!! We have really really seen the Lord's hand in His work here in Milwaukee! we've seen our teaching pool almost tipple in its numbers here it has truly been a miracle! The work is hastening!!!!
SO! sister green and i were wondering what we should do the next week while we were weekly planning and we looked through our list of potential investigators (or just people missionaries in the past had come in contact with, but nothing really happened with them) BUT ANYWAY! So we see a woman who was a referral from Salt Lake City on the list and she hadn't been contacted!!!! So we say "lets go see her!!!!" sp we go and knock o her apartment door and she invites us in!!! Her name is Charlene and her daughter is a member of the church adn we taught the restoration of the Gospel and we invited her to be baptized on septermber 15th and SHE AGREED!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She is so exited!
So the next day! we had been out working and came out of a lesson and i saw that we had a missed call from an unknown number! BUT NOT JUST ANY UNKNOWN NUMBER! It had a 208 area code!!!! WE ALL KNOW THAT MEANS!!!!!!!!!ITS FROM IDAHO!!!!! at first i thought "Ohhhhhh shoot my mom really misses me!!! SHE JUST CALLED ME!!!!" hahaha jk but we got permission to call the number back! and it was a woman! and she told us that she was charlenes daughter! And that her mother wouldn't let her join the church when she was younger and was really offended that she couldn't see her get married in the Salt Lake temple and because of all theses things hated the church and practically disowned her daughter! she hated the mormons!!! and then her daughter said "but i got a call from my mom and she told me that you had stopped by! She said that she had never felt so much happiness than she did when she was with you! so thank you!"
We went back to charlenes to see if this was just all a joke and if she was just doing it to make her daughter happy and she said "no! I know this book of Mormon is true! I know that joseph smith saw what he said he saw! I want to be baptized! This book is my salvation! I will give up coffee! I will give it all up! I just want to be baptized!!!" WWWWOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
Thats all folks! I have a testimony of Jesus Christ! I Know that the Book of Mormon is not just nice stories! It is abook that (like charlene said) contains our salvation!!!!! This is the work of God! I love being a missionary for the master of my soul! I KNOW this is the only true and living church! And it is living because Jesus Christ stands at the head of it! LOVE YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!! love receiving your emails! THANK YOU!
Because I have been Given much I too must give!!!!!!!!!!!!
