Sorry not thanksgiving pictures but this is what we did this week. We could be gangsters ;)


 
Happy Thanksgiving!!
  Since this past week was thanksgiving I have had the opportunity to look back and ponder the things I am grateful for in my life and I wanted to start off this letter by giving thanks to everyone who has ever been in my life! I would not be the person I am today without all Y'all. I am every thankful for my family and the example they have set for me and also my ward family. I love y'all very much!! Thank you for everything you do for my family. I am also grateful for a loving Heavenly Father, who provided a way to live with him again and that is through our Savior Jesus Christ. I am grateful for Christ and the example he has set for me. I am also grateful for this Gospel and the knowledge and comfort give each one of us. I know this is where I'm suppose to be and I know this is the Lord's work. I know God loves us!!! Psalms 100:4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
  This was the best Holiday I've been on my whole mission! This ward know how to keep the missionaries busy on holidays. The ward got together and made pies for us to take to our investigators and some of the members that we are working with. Most people push you away during Holidays but we were able to teach six lessons on thanksgiving day. We were busy for more then four hours that day. Then we did weekly planning and then had dinner with a member named Hardman.
  I have talked a lot about a German lady in my past Emails and we have great new, she now has a baptism date!! (Jess) is going to be baptized with her friend on December 13th!! When we went over to teach (Kristy) we talked about her baptism and then she said its not only my baptism. And that caught us off guide and said what do you mean and that's when Jess said we are going to get baptized together. We were shocked but Jess figured out her situation and now we are able to baptized her has well! We are so excited and the Lord has really been blessing us!!  We have a total of three baptism dates for the 13th now! It is going to be a challenge to get all of them ready for that day but it is possible.
  Thank you for all the prayers! God speed!
