-Here are some awesome socks a member gave us....i thought it was pretty exciting! haha
Well hello dear friends and family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MAN OH MAN!!!!!!!!!!! this is the true church of Christ! I know that! I know that our Prophet Thomas S. Monson is a man of God and INSPIRED! :) I know that the Book of Mormon is true! I know this for myself! I know that ETERNAL LIFE IS FAMILY LIFE! This concept is stressed SO INTENSELY in the Milwaukee Wisconsin Mission! I know that Joseph Smith is no liar! And if people say he is a liar! They are only fulfilling prophecy which was given my the angel moroni when he said that Josephs name would be used for both good and evil! :)
We have an investigator named Sara who has a friend in Utah who is helping her gain a testimony of the Book of Mormon! We invited her to kneel in prayer with us right there and ask if the Book of Mormon was true! That was THE MOST SINCERE PRAYER I HAVE EVER HEARD LEAVE SOMEONES LIPS!! WOW! it was great! I know that God will answer her prayers!
So to explain the title! We met with Jessica our investigator and we read her the baptismal questions! To some she said yes and to others she said TBD (To be determined)......and after she said TBD, i didn't know what to say! So i paused...and sister peterson didn't say anything....and so i just said kinda slowly and awkwardly. "mmkkayyy....? how can we...make....that go from TBD....to just D?" hahahaha this made me WISH that missionaries were forced to memorize the lessons because I sounded sssoooooooo dumb hahahaha but thats okay! Jess Loves us anyway! Hopefully she gets a D soon! hahaha?
It is a great life here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love this sweet sweet ward! We had an awesome youth fireside that was on missionary work and we had it combined with the youth and missionaries from two other wards! We showed an awesome mormon message and talked about how being a friend to people is missionary work in its self!
We brought a less active girl who is a little rough around the edges to a lesson with us! We had been thinking about her A TON last week! And we talked with her mom ( the girl is our age) and asked what she thought and we came to a conclusion that she should help us teach shelby and abbie (who are being baptized on the 21st My little sisters b-day!!!!)) BUT THIS LESS ACTIVE GIRL DID WONDERS!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE BROUGHT THE SPIRIT that she didn't know she could bring anymore! We are going to dinner at her house later this week! We can't wait to continue to help her faith grow!!!!!!!
funniest thing of this week was definitely playing bingo at a nursing home with a woman in our ward! hahahahaha i can see why they like it! Its intense! So here we are playing bingo....and this round was black out! and i got a black out! So i just yell "YYYYAAAAAAHHHHHOOOOOO!!!!!!!" and pretty sure some hearing aids broke! They were like "What the devil!? Who is that young whiper shnapper! oh shes a mormon!!!" haha okay not that last part! but their reactions were PRICELESS! There are many other stories to tell!!!!!!! BUT! Not enough time! Love you all!!!!!!!!!!
