Baptism

Sorry I'm out of time, but we went to a baptism this week and it wasn't full when it was time to start so we made an assembly line with the missionaries and filled it from the 2 kitchen sinks. That was fun. The new member was actually one of our investigators and she moved to the other ward, so that was cool.

We founds a super cool potential investigator. We were stopping by people on the ward list we didn't know and we met her. She told us that her parents are members, but she wasn't ever baptized. She said that she was actually looking into the church and thinking about joining it and being baptized. So we'll see how that goes. That was a cool miracle.

We also set one of our investigators with a baptismal date. That was sweet.

Well, sorry I'm out of time. Have an awesome week!
Love, Elder Bronson

100

Hey everyone, how's it been going.

So this week we did a lot of stopping by people. We had a lesson with one of our investigators. She is super solid. We resolved a couple of concerns about church. She was nervous about going and not knowing where to go and all of the stuff. She is going to watch a baptism this Saturday. That is going to be awesome.

Let's see... We did a lot of stopping by people this week. We went on exchanges, so I got to go Spanish for a day and try to say something. We had a cool miracle though. So it was the end of the night and we decided that we were going to talk to one more person no matter what it took. As we were walking back to the car we knocked a couple of doors, but no one answered and no one was there to talk to. We decided to knock on the door we parked in front of and we saw the next door neighbor watering her grass. We decided to go talk to her. Turns out, she was an inactive member. We talked for a while and committed her to randomly open the Book of Mormon and read for 5 minutes. She said that she would do it. It was cool how when we set goals, the Lord will provide a way for us to accomplish them. It won't be easy, but it will be worth it.

Have an awesome week everyone,
Love Elder Bronson

It hit 100 degrees this week. We felt like we were going to die. Luckily, it was just one weird day, the rest of the week it has cooled down.

Transfers!

So we were walking down a street and saw 3 kids. We both thought, if we talk to these people we are going to get shanked. We talked to them anyways and it turns out they were just talking about religion. We ended up teaching the whole Restoration right there with them and they loved it. We also talked about how as missionaries, we follow the Spirit and are guided to where we go each day. They really liked that and we set up a lesson for the next week. It is going to be sweet. They said that all of the things that we had said were what they had been talking about for the past couple of days. It was really cool.

So we had transfers and (drumroll) we are both staying. Not much change there. Elder Petersen is pretty bummed. I'm pretty happy to stay in Paso.
Speaking of drumroll, we found a member that plays the drums, so I got to play again. I'm getting rusty.

Sorry, I forgot my adapter, so no pictures today.

We got to tour Bro. Daniels's work. It was sweet. They make some cool things. You'd have to be there to see. It's unexplainable.

Have an awesome week,
Love Elder Bronson

Week

This week has been great.

So we've been trying something new to find some more investigators and it has worked great. We go somewhere to go talk to a potential and they aren't home. Instead of getting back in the car and going to the next person, we walk around and try to find the person that God wanted us to go see while we were there. It has been sweet. We found 4 potentials in 3 days. It was sweet.

SOrry out of time and not enough time to put on pictures. 20 seconds

Have an awesome week,
