Magic

This last Sunday was really great, the Bishop baptized his 5th daughter after services. And the spirit was very strong. Probably the most spiritual Baptism I have been too. At the end all the girls in the Armstrong extended family went up and sang and let little TJ sing alone the last verse. Everyone teared up. That family is awesome.

On a sad note, we have actually had a problem I never imagined worrying about, some of the girls from the local high school have been targeting us. It has gotten a little out of hand... if it persists the mission president may have to move us out. But hopefully it calms down soon so that doesn't happen.

On good note, we saw or found some cool people this week: 
-Casey is the young girl we found a few weeks ago, she loves the gospel. Her uncle took away the pamphlets we gave her but she hid the book of mormon and has started to read it! She is awesome!
-Earn is and older gentleman whose wife is completely against our church. As we walked past her house and said hello to her husband she blew a gasket and yelled at us a ton then she sat down, her husband however ignored everything she said and just commit
came over to talk to us. He has been searching for more truth for a long time and he thinks the book of mormon is what he has been missing. We are excited and a little nervous to see what happens with his household, he is super prepared for the gospel though.
-lastly Mikel is Casey's neighbor and is a thorough study of the bible. When we offered him the book of mormon he gladly accepted saying it all makes so much sense. He probably understands our doctrine better then I do. He and Casey are going to start studying with us( Mikel is older but has a granddaughter who stays with him the same age as Casey) I an going to have a lot of fun with them.

Love y'all
