*gets phone call from a number in a different state
Me: "literally I think we are getting another spam call..."
Sister Bateman: "Do we answer it??"
Sister Stevenson: " aw man these spam calls are the WORST"
* Everyone comes to a consensus*
Me: "ok ok I'll answer... Hi! this is the missionaries for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints"
Austin: Hi, hello! Thanks for answering my call, my name is Austin.
Me: Oh Hi Austin! Thanks for calling!
*confused looks all around*
Austin: hey my friend invited me to watch general conference a few months ago and it has been on my mind lately... I guess I just have a few questions...
-continues phone call-
OK YEAH MIRACLE Austin is from Washington, moving to Baker city in a week! He has read the book of Mormon and loves the feelings he has when he reads it, he said it's the same feeling he had when he watched general conference! We are so excited to meet with him again!
We also found 3 new people because Sister Stevenson is SO inspired. We were knocking on a door for someone we had an appointment with... but there was no answer... so of course even if it didn't work out with the plans we had, there was a reason we were there at that time. Sister Stevenson looks up and says "hmmm let's go to that house" and so we went and we found Jeff.
We found out that he plays basketball at the church every Wednesday night and they have been to church before. He was heading out that night so we said we would stop by later in the week. We stopped by again and found Pam. We invited them to the special Christmas church meeting on the 22nd and she wants her son Anthony, to learn about religion and choose for himself what he wants. So we found a teaching opportunity with Anthony! He is about 11 years old (interesting age... temple???)
We also got to have lessons with April, Cheri , Riley, Damon, Karmen, Lindsey, and Jess. They are all progressing really well and we are getting everything ready for Lindsey's baptism on the 2nd. I'm going to have to make some trips back up to Baker in the next 2 months after January because all of these people are going to be baptized and I am just going to miss it!
We also had to make a trip to Boise this past week for a 3 week follow-up meeting for the new missionaries. Just to make sure they are surviving Haha. It was a super inspired meeting, since it was a ways back to our area, we got to spend the night in the mission home! Because of this, we were able to have a companionship study with the Nyggards! We focused our study's on finding. How we can effectively find those who want to hear about the gospel. It was super cool!
Yesterday we had the Messiah Choir concert and it was AWESOME! I did a solo ... just kidding lol I didn't do a solo Haha. But it was super fun! We drove with Jess and her friend and Jess is on top of everything. She invited her friend to come to our special Christmas sacrament program! We are super excited for that!
Last item of business: our heater broke Haha we are going to call the landlady and see if we can get it fixed because its cold!!! and it is only 12 degrees!!!
Love you all!
Love,
Sister Bailey :)
