This week was super crazy!! We had so much stuff going on all
week!! We had to say good bye to Sister Haught, as she left to her new
area (she has been here 9 months). We also taught the most
lessons since I have been out! We were on fire! It was incredible how
much the Lord blessed us and put people in our paths. There were a
couple of investigator families that we were thinking about dropping
because we could never get a hold of them but we were able to go and
have a good lesson with and they want us to start coming back at least
once a week!! We also have a new investigator, who is really interested
in the church. We taught him the restoration and he is super excited to
read The Book of Mormon, I cant wait to meet back with all theses people
and continue to teach them!
On Sunday we had Kelsey show up to church (the other people living
with her couldn't get off work or find a ride) and she loved it! We went
over to her house later in the day and she told us all about the stuff
she learned, she is so excited to be baptized and is making
everyone else listen to what we teach, because she loves it so
much! Also, at church was a less active member who we have gone to see 3
or 4 times but have never gotten in to share something with him. He
randomly showed up and enjoyed it! Everyone at church came up and
introduced themselves to him, it was awesome how welcomed he felt.
The people that we are teaching are super prepared, its amazing! I
know that the Lord has been working with them for a while and are now
going to be receiving his gospel soon!
Today, we got to go with a member down to Eglin Air Force base and
get a personal tour of their new planes and we got to watch them take off
like 300 yards away from us!! We got to get up close and personal with
one and got see a bunch of its components. They couldn't really tell us
much because it is pretty classified (some technology on it). The
member also took us to the airforce clothing store where he ordered some
patches for us (with our last names on them and one with FTM [Florida
Tallahassee Mission]) and bought us shirts; it was such a fun time,
super cold, but fun!!
I am looking forward to this upcoming week, we have great plans to
help the people we are teaching progress. I hope that y'all have a great
week and take time to remember all the miracles and sacrifice that our Savior preformed.
Love you all!
Elder Schipaanboord
