Hello from the rainy Exeter, California!!!
We had a pretty good week this week. It's been raining
almost everyday this week! But does that stop the Exeter Elders? NO!!!!!
We found a new investigator named Delvon Blunson this week.
When we first met him he was with his buddy named J-Peg AKA The Hammer walking
on the sidewalk. The Hammer has lots of interesting views about the Bible and
such was going on about a 10-15 minute monologue while it was raining on all of
us! After a while The hammer said something about finding out the truth and how
if you think something is true then lay it out on the table cause it's an
option!!! At this point I had 2 copies of The Book of Mormon in my hand and I
whipped them up and said, "Well that's exactly what we're doing! We're out
here proclaiming the truth and that it's in this book and we want to give you
both a copy so you can find out it's true for yourselves!!" J-Peg took the
book and said he had to go. Afterwards we kept talking with Delvon and ended up
teaching a really quick review of the Restoration! And 2 days later we invited
him to be baptized on March 18th!! He said yes!!!
We are also going to be having a miracle baptism!! An eternigator
named April has committed to be baptized on the 31st!!! We are very excited
that she is finally making the decision to be baptized!
We also had a former investigator from a couple years ago
randomly show up at church with her 3 kids and stayed the entire time! She's
already been previously fellow shipped by the members and they love her. We are
going to see her on Tuesday. Based off of her teaching record from the past she
was very solid, but a separation between her and her ex-husband is what dropped
them off the board for a while. We are excited to see where this goes
though!
That's about all for this week though!! Love you all!!
