Great Week!

Dear Family,

We have had another great week. It kinda a weird stage in missionary work for us but I feel like it is really effective. We have been doing a lot of work with the members and setting up opportunities for them to share the gospel with their friends.

Elder Howard and I spoke in church on Sunday. It is weird speaking and being the branch pres at the same time. I feel like people listen to me more haha. Well, Elder Howard spoke on naturally sharing the gospel with our friends and family. How if we talk with our friends the spirit will open up the conversation to where we can testify of some principle of the gospel. Then i spoke about Charity and how a missionary is not a missionary with out charity. Well we have this super awesome member named sister Campbell. Sister Campbell listened to our talks and she said that after we spoke that she felt really prompted to that her family should be apart of the gospel. So she walked over to her dad's house and talked with him and to make a long story short it worked and now he is going to be coming to church!!!!

Also another cool story. On Saturday we went up to see a member and i was in a tripanionship with Elder Howard and Elder Groesbeck. Well while we are seeing this family we taught them about the importance of reading the Book of Mormon and how it gives us strength to over come our trials she said she felt like she needed to read it. The interesting thing was we weren't even teaching it to her. We were teaching he less active daughter. Well She said that after we left she went straight in and started reading and a great feeling came over her and she said it had been the first time in weeks she has been able to sleep the whole night.

Yeah baptisms are slow right now but if i can only just help one person a day I am happy. I wish i could help everyone all the time but everything is in the Lords time. Thanks family for all you do. I love ya.

Love Elder Stuart
