Staying in Clarkston

Ahhhh, back at it again with transfer calls. I will be staying in Clarkston with Elder Huff! Thank heavens because I finally feel like I actually know what is going on. The good news is that we will be getting a full time car, so there will be no more biking in the freezing rain (which we did a lot of this week). I am excited to be staying here. It is a great area and we had another good week this week. 

Investigators;
Char Fam: Still the most "golden" family on the face of the planet. They have read 14 chapters of the Book of Mormon as a family in just over a week. How's your family scripture study going? They were at church yesterday and were able to meet a lot of members of the ward. They are so amazing. During the lesson we had with them, we asked them about praying about the Book of Mormon. Their  little daughter Juliana's hand shot up in the air and she said, "I know it is true." The spirit just smacked me like a sack of bricks. I could just feel the purity of this little girl and how innocent she was. Wow, it was such a special experience.

Stephan: had a great lesson and he finally committed to come to church. He texted us Sunday morning and cancelled because some sort of explosion kept him up all night. Very interesting, North Korea might be coming after all. 

Hum Fam: finally able to meet with the husband again! Had a great lesson, but they didn't show up to church :(

Jonathan: haven't been able to contact him, ughhh :(

Other than that, we have found some new investigators. We aren't sure if they are accountable or not. An 87 year old man named Howard. He has dementia or something and has the mind of a 10 year old. Anyway he started singing us a Johnny Cash song with his wife after our lesson. It was the first time I had heard Folsom Prison Blues in a long time. With his singing voice, I don't know that I would care to hear it again anytime soon. 

Ok, well, I love y'all and I am thankful for your support! Pray for a chance to make someone smile today!
