THE EXCITEMENT THOUGH!!!



Hey everyone!

This week was so crazy!  It started off with a new investigator we got
about a week or two ago.  Her name is Beverly.  We gave her a
Restoration Pamphlet and a Book of Mormon to read so we could talk
about the next time we saw her. When we saw her next, she said she read
the Restoration pamphlet, but not The Book of Mormon because it was
too small of print for her to read.  So we got her a bigger one, and wrapped it
up for her like a Christmas present.  When we gave it to her, she was
so excited!  She tore the plastic right off and started flipping
through it.

The next time we saw her we asked if she'd read from it, and she said
that she'd read the introduction, the testimonies, and had read random
bits and pieces throughout.  She said that she loved it, and that she
understood it better than the King James Bible, and the best part
(wait for it...) SHE SAID SHE KNEW IT WAS TRUE!!!  It was insane!
She's dying for us to come back and read with her because she loves
how we make it even easier for her to understand.  I'm so excited to
see what happens with her.

Then, the next big day was Saturday.  We had our Christmas zone
conference, which was mostly just a Christmas party.  We got a
Christmas present (which was a TKM flag!), then we played dodge ball (I
got a big welt on my arm), and then.... the best part.... (Wait for
it...) WE WATCHED BIG HERO 6!  Yeah!  It was so good!  I'd already
seen it, but guys, we got to watch a movie!

Then..... DEE GOT BAPTIZED!!!  Oh my goodness!  It was so great!  She
had to be dunked three times, but she's a member now!  It was so
wonderful. :) She was so ready.  She was so happy afterwards and so
clean and pure!  So many members came to support her, too!

I loved this week, and I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!

Sincerely,
Sister Shelton
