100%

HE DID IT! Josh is at 100%! He had his interview, and he passed! He's getting baptized  and we're all ecstatic! This whole past week, Josh has been saying things and they kind of blow me away because he really gets the gospel. I don't think I've ever seen anyone smile so much at church. He is on cloud nine, and he isn't even baptized yet! His cheeks are gonna be sore all weekend!! He said the sweetest prayer for us, and he's quite determined to change the world. But one step at a time.

More big news!! We found Frank's records, and he is definitely a member of the church! And he even holds the priesthood!! He couldn't remember being confirmed and we were having trouble finding his records so we've been unsure for about a month. But we got them! Frank is so cool. 



Bonnie has had a slight headache this week, because she finished off her coffee! No more word of wisdom problems for her!! We read 3 Nephi 11 with her and last night we watched "The Testaments" and she cooked us a bunch of food! So sweet of her! 

Sam. We sat down and had a real good talk with him about baptism. Anyway, we now know exactly what's holding him back and Sister Roz Beeston is going to help us help him! (Because she's amazing and has the coolest conversion story.) But Sam knows the church is true!!! He knows the Book of Mormon is the word of God, he knows Joseph Smith was a prophet, and he has even started to talk about the gospel with some people. He came to church yesterday, and things are good!  










Then we also got two new awesome investigators, Keshia and Adrienne! Adrienne was taught before, but didn't feel ready to be baptized yet. They have family that are members (the McLain's-Sam's family) so they've known about the church for a long time. Keshia has the most beautiful testimony. They sought us out, because they want to be members. Keshia was talking to a friend about religion and ended up defending our church and she realized that she wanted to be a part of it. She's been praying about it for months and knows it's true! So cool!!! Their baptism date is April 22- just before transfers. 

And obviously we had to wear green for St. Patrick's Day. And obviously we had to make cute clovers to tell everyone that we're lucky to know them. I also found some real clovers. 







Oh! And Tonya Ross (a less-active member we found because Elder Scoresby scrolled through our phone and randomly called the number he landed on, and ended up setting us up a dinner appointment with her) bought us a TON of groceries this weekend. I just called for a dinner appointment and she basically fed us for two weeks! 

Definitely not starving down here. We are full, full, full! 
Full of food. Full of happiness. And full of the spirit!!
