I'll start off with the great news. We had four investigators come to church yesterday! It was so wonderful to see them there! Kat and Lizzy came (thanks to the Winsors driving them) and Mike and Kay came! We weren't expecting to see Mike and Kay because they said they were going to be out of town for two weeks, but I guess now they're back! Kat and Lizzy have baptismal dates for the 19th of September, and Kat seems to be really on fire about it. She wants to get baptized, whether or not her husband does too. He's being a little difficult, but I know that something in the gospel will help him realize why he needs to act in order to prepare himself for baptism. That's so cool that four people came to church. It's been a while since I've seen that many investigators in one sacrament meeting.
We are preparing for stake conference in two weeks! Elder Renlund (who was a missionary companion of President Cutler's!) of the Seventy is coming to speak to us and I'm totally excited about it! The meeting is up in Wausau, so that's a bit of a drive, but that's alright. At least we have the Barretts to give us a ride all the way there. We don't have miles for that anyway. In fact, we barely have miles to do anything! Oh well. Somehow the Lord will provide a way for the work to move forward.
Alright, I've done terrible at including pictures in my e-mails, so here's one of Elder Meservy. He's been out for 3 weeks and this was my first exchange as a district leader. He's really funny and doesn't have that "deer in the headlights" look, even though he's so new. He's going to be a great leader one day. ;-)
This is the last picture I took with this SD card. I've finally run out of room on this one too! Thankfully I have another one. This is the image of how I feel about weekly planning.
That's it folks! I'm off until next week! Love you lots!
~~Elder T. Riggs
