October 6, 2008 Email

Hello! Its been another hardworking wonderful week! I love it here! I have an advantage being from the desert because i love the rain! Its pretty much always raining but its fun and smells good. We picked up four new investigators this week.... by tracting and refferals! Its so great when people let you in! I love it! So we have been meeting some really neat people. We are excited about this women and her 10 year old daughter that we taught the first lesson to on Saturday. After the first vision we asked them what they thought or felt..... the cute girl Annalisa said "It makes me feel special." What a wonderful way to express the feeling of the spirit! It makes me feel special too! We then asked them if the story was too hard to believe....Annalisa didnt blink an I and said "i believe it!" The mother said that she will pray about it. This is a good example of why the Lord has asked us to become like little children!... Maybe we can all take a look at our lives and ask our self what more we can do to become submissive to our Father in Heaven like a child.
As far as our progressing investigators go...... if every thing goes as planned Deanna will be baptised this Saturday, David the next, and then his brother Patrick the next week(he wanted his own special day). Wow! but we need prayers because Deanna is still struggling with the w.o.w. she wants to be baptised so bad.....she keeps slipping.....but if she can just make it through this week we know that the Lord will make it easier for her and she will have the Holy Ghost to help her. Pray for her please. She recieved a beautiful blessing last night from the elders. And then we all sang Amazing Grace together....which she wants us to sing at her baptism. The work is moving forward! The gospel is so true!
Guess what? Thanksgiving is on Oct. 13th here....so the Library wont be open again....so probably i will write on Tuesday next week.
So dad...thanks for the email....i totally agree with you about the making it simple thing.....i have been trying to do that myself. I am so glad that Eduardo is getting baptised...very exciting! Keep up the good work! I loved conference.....seeing the choir kind of made me miss home though....all those nice looking mormon people! HaHa.
Love, Sister Flake
