Wow, all that snow looks super weird hahaha. Now that Christmas is done there's no indication of the season at all, so it's weird to think it's so cold for you guys. This week was quite a good one. I don't have a ton of time left, so I'll be sort of brief.
To start off, Julian moved back! He texted us and told us he had moved back into the same home as before because the one he moved to wasn't in as nice of a neighborhood and he didn't feel very safe. So we're teaching him again and he's working towards a new baptismal date on the 19th! We're pretty excited, he's really awesome.
We also are teaching Rod again, he was away for the holidays. He's currently on track to get baptized this Saturday, so we're really pumped for that. He was telling everyone he talked to about it yesterday at church, so it seems like he's really looking forward to it too, which is awesome.
We almost helped a homeless guy dig a hole in a random person's garden. We were calling up a member to bring over a shovel and working on everything we needed to get this thing done. Then as we talked we realized that this guy didn't live in the house and wasn't all there, so we ended up withdrawing from the situation and letting the police know we had just talked to someone who was roaming the street trying to plant his bush in other people's gardens. We had an appointment that we left for before anyone got there, so I'm not really sure how it turned out.
And last, but certainly not least, we found a really cool person named Mario on Saturday. We had actually met him about a week and a half before that, but he cancelled the appointment we set up with him. We remembered him while we were working close to where he lived Saturday night, and we decided to drop by and pay him a visit. He was so prepared to hear our message! He was asking great questions, talked about how he had really been wanting to start going to church, and he accepted an invitation to be baptized! We are so excited to be able to work with him, and it seems like his family might be pretty interested in learning too! It was an awesome miracle, and it was in the middle of having a bunch of things we'd planned on doing fall through, so it was really special.
Well, that's our week. Keeping all you guys in my prayers, I love you!
