October 3, 2010

G'day family.

This week was pretty good we worked way hard and got quite a bit done and the blessings are pouring in. so update on Jesse so two days before his baptism he was all set and going so great and all of the sudden his Nan and Pop (g-parents) drugged him threw him in a burlap sack and tossed him in the boot of their car and drove to New South Whales to brain wash him back to the JW faith. OK so it may have not happened that way but i read between the line of what i was being told. so ya he did up and go to his grandparents who are JW's and i do reckon they will have something to say about his up and coming baptism. but I'm sure he'll be fine he has a good testimony, and when he gets back we'll have to suss it out. But as one door closes another one opens so this last week we found Danielle, she is a friend of a members and we had dinner with them and taught her this week. we taught the Restoration and challenged her to pray, though she has no previous knowledge of god or anything, but that night we got a call from he and she was all excited she told us we were right and she did get her answer just like we promised, she said she prayed for time and it worked every time, she was at church yesterday and she was able to witness a baptism as well, and she is now preparing for her own baptism. so that's the best news from the week, we also have heaps of appointments this week with new people we hope to help progress in the gospel, so Also this weekend was the first time the sun actually came out in the two months I've been here,and oh man it was wonderful, it was probably 75-80 the whole weekend and the beaches were packed and there were hundreds of boats and jet ski's it felt like i was in the Bahamas with the turquoise water. i'm pretty sure by the time summer is in full swing i won't come home. but all it well family, only 10 weeks left thats ages so don't get too excited. i lvoe you all and be good.
