Winter officially ends this week- March 16, 2015


Hey Everyone!

This week has been great! Elder Allen and I have 9 baptismal dates with many wonderful people! We've been meeting with Shannon basically every day with week, and he CAME TO CHURCH FOR THE THIRD TIME IN A ROW!! He's a freaking rockstar, and is on track for his date of April 18th. Also, someone names Frank, who Elder Rytting and I found on exchanges has been reading the Book of Mormon and is loving it! The really cool part? When we first talked to him all he wanted to do was bash with us and explain how the Book of Mormon couldn't be true because the Bible says in the book of Revelations that we shouldn't add or take away anything from this book or God will add plagues to him (it also says that in Deuteronomy and Proverbs, so there's not a lot of merit to it "disproving" the Book of Mormon).  Anyway, somehow we got to talking to him and he became interested in reading the Book of Mormon and praying about it! We're planning on setting a date with him this week.

Sandy also now has a baptismal date! She's been enjoying the Book of Mormon and she loves church! We're just working on teaching her husband, Ron, and getting him excited and interested in reading and coming to church again. Things are going well here in Waukesha!

I hope everyone has had a good week and is loving the warmer weather! Pray for me that I stay in Waukesha for one more transfer, please!

--Elder T. Riggs
