Hello Everyone!
So this past weekend we had a baptism and it went great! There were so many people there it filled the chapel it was nuts! But it was a really nice baptism! His name is Braden Lenz and he is 12 years old and he will be the first one in his house to have the Priesthood, so that's way cool!
We got a lot done this week! We were able to teach a few new people and they seem like they are pretty interested! We found this one family and their last name is Riley! haha The parents are never home but we stand on the doorstep and talk to the kids! They are pretty interested! We gave three of their kids Books of Mormon and one of the girls really likes it! She took it to school with her and is reading it there! So I can't wait to get in there and talk to her family! We did meet their uncle! He is pagan so he believes in witchcraft and stuff like that! He was an interesting fellow!
We are currently teaching a little girl, she is 10 years old and she wants to know more. We have gone over just 2 of the lessons but she really likes it and wants to be baptized. Her mom wants her to be baptized but in order for that to happen she has to attend church twice and she hasn't so that's tough and her Mom doesn't really enjoy church that much so its a struggle! But we will get her there so no worries!
Now we are trying to get this one investigator to stop smoking so he can be baptized but he's having a hard time quitting. He likes to smoke too much so that kinda suck but he comes to church every Sunday and he says that he really likes it! So he's gonna keep coming! I'm hoping someone will say something in a talk or lesson that stands out to him and he will then know how he can put away his bad smoking habit!
Well that's about it for this week! Thanks for all the support of my family and friends and the ward!
Love -
Elder Bradley Riley
