This week has been filled with service and teaching new investigators! To start off, we do service for the old woman that runs the food pantry here in Green Cove. They called us up one morning asking us to meet with them at the local shopping center. They were holding a food drive. We helped them hand out flyers and collect large amounts of food they had been given. We carried over 600 pounds of food to the Pantry and were able to sort it all out. Those Southern gals are hilarious I'll tell ya, it was a blast!
Chelsie's baptism is this Saturday! She is ready and excited! Last night we had a spiritual lesson with her and the Taylor Family about temples. We talked about how baptism is only the beginning of her journey, which opens the gates to eternal life and the many other blessings that will come throughout her life. The YSA are planning an Orlando Temple trip here pretty soon. Chelsie is expecting to tag along with them and go do baptisms for the deceased.
The miracle of the week has been meeting the Brown Family. A Branch President referred us to Johnny Brown and his fiance Tiffany and her little girl Corinthian. Johnny was a convert in 82' and he's looking to get back into church and return to the temple. His fiance Tiffany is not a member, but she really enjoyed church yesterday and wants to be taught everything there is to know about the church and become a part of it! They have not decided on a marriage date, yet but hopefully this month or the next and she will also be baptized.
I bare witness that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is real. God is our Father and he loves us unconditionally. He has created a perfect plan in order to find happiness in this life and for our families to be together forever.
