Hey everyone!

This week was SOOOO busy! we had to organize and get the baptism all planned and prepared for while still trying to maintain the quota of twenty lessons a week and fasting and praying for our other investigator stephen, but i'll talk more about that in a minute!

Anne's baptism was fabulous! I'll send a program your way! Sister Cuff and Sister Pelletier two sisters in the ward that know Anne well gave the talks and me and sister Milburn sang "learn of me" by Janice Kapp Perry! Everyone said it was beautiful. The water was warm and a part
of me wishes they would hold her under longer because it just goes by too fast for all the work we do! haha about 60 members of the ward came and we had lots of treats and goodies to eat. We decided to continue my tradition of getting those who attended to write their testimonies on index cards for Anne so that we could put a book together of pictures and testimonies. We also got her ordered a quad of scriptures with her name on it ! i know she loved it! Anne also
invited her "boyfriend" Neil, who's 84!!! haha he's so cute, and i really want to start teaching him this week too we'll see!
we also taught Stephen this week and had a really intense lesson on the second half of the plan of salvation. he has so many questions and the language barrier is hard! ..... well we prayed that night and the next morning we got a call from him saying he wants to come to church and come to all three hours to experience the whole thing! i was so happy! he came and every meeting went sooooo well! he participated in Sunday school and everyone came up to him and was so friendly :D i can't wait to see what he really thought at our lesson this week.

Well that's really all the excitement this week! I'm really loving
sister Milburn, we get along great and she's so excited for missionary
work.

love you all! and miss you a lot..... especially this time of year! :D

love sister kara wotherspoon
