November 7, 2016 - Howdy! - Medina, NY

Hey Y'all!  Hope everyone's week went great!

Happy late Halloween everyone! In the NYRM for Halloween we went to our stake building and hung out with most of the zone! We played volleyball and basketball and had a good time!

Tuesday we went and did some yard work for a less active and then we had district meeting. But for lunch our district went to go get the warrior burger. It's a burger with grilled cheese as the buns! It was good but my stomach has shrunk a lot so I didn't finish it! Which is probably a good thing, heart attack on a plate! Haha!v We didn't do ward correlation this week because Brother Rylander was so busy! So we went to our families home, Susan's and watched the restoration video with them! They loved it!

Wednesday we visited with a couple investigators. One was Ruthy Coffey! She is so awesome and is progressing pretty well. It's hard to catch her cause she is always at the doctors... but we've been able to to teach her a little bit and she loves it when we come over! We saw Donald and Tessa. And we also got to teach 2 new investigators, Amanda and Rhonda! They are so cool! I recited the first vision, I was over whelmed with warmth and love... I asked them how they felt and all Rhonda said was warm... I was blown away and testified that she was feeling the Holy Ghost. I love that feeling and strive to feel it more and more. Elder Verdine says you get numb to it. I don't believe him. I will never be numb to the prompting of the lord and the love he gives me.

Thursday was an okay day. We offended a couple members because of the meal calendar. I didn't know feeding the missionaries would be such a drama centered subject. It's like the biggest problem in the Lockport Ward. People get offended if their names are crossed off or anything it's ridiculous. It's like we are babysitting. But we got to see Scott Smith and it was the first time we saw him since his baptism! He's loving life! He's the best! Love Scott! He was suppose to be leaving for college soon but the ride he had down to Florida fell through so now he is stuck here and doesn't know what to do! So we are teaching him till he leaves! We saw Susan and Cordel again! We shared Helaman 5:12 with her and watched a conference talk by Jeffery R Holland! She loved it! She teared up a bit! It's the talk about tomorrow brings greatness or something like that, it's a great talk!

Friday morning was Elder Marks birthday, he's a missionary in Lockport so we drove down and made pancakes in the morning! It was a lot of fun! And the day was full of appointments that eventually fell through! But we did get to see Johnnie! He's a guy we met the first week I was here and we finally got to talk with him and teach him the
restoration and we invited him to be baptized! He will be baptized on December 17th! So excited. Then I got to do what I love! Haha we helped the Biesinger family install some sub flooring in their home before they put floating hardwood on! It was a lot of fun! Got to be back in the old glory days of working!

Saturday was a topical day spent tracting and doors closed in our faces. Not a lot went down. Sunday was good! A less active family that hasn't been to church in a very long time showed up! I was so excited cause I've been wanting to meet them for awhile and just have never made it over! So it was really good! And it was Sunday where we have Medina meeting! Medina meeting is always fun! There was a pretty good turn out this month too!  

Well everyone that was my week! I love you all! Don't forget you have a father in heaven you loves you so much. And a savior who paid the price of all of our sins, Jesus Christ the son of god. And read the Book of Mormon and keep the sabbath day holy and I promise you will be blessed in every aspect of your life. I know these things to be true.

Love,
ELDER JUDY
