I am up in Marquette Michigan. My new address is 415 Radisson Dr. Marquette, MI 49855. Everyone send me a letter so I can get a library card!!!Also, I'm in the next time zone so now two hours ahead of ya'll so don't be procrastinators in email!!! :)
Well, I made it here safely. After 8 hours of travel from kettle to milwaukee. milwaukee to oshkosh. oshkosh to greenbay. Greenbay to marquette. Oh the travels.
Last update with my favorite investigator from Kettle. Marie feels the word of wisdom is inspired and will live it! She is going to post signs all over her mansion saying "Do I really need this cigarette?" We taught her at night and she told us she couldn't do it that night but GIVE HER A FEW DAYS AND SHE'LL HAVE IT. What? Most people want to take months. Marie has faith in days! I know it must be a trying time for her right now, but she wants to make this change for the gospel's sake and I just love her!
So marquette is a bit colder. Borderline jacket weather here since I've been here. It's been really rainy. Also, the basement I live in is freezing!!!!! Ah well, missions toughin you up ;) But we get an awesome 2014 truck so we can make it through the snow. (elders get a car)
Our investigators are awesome! Ed had an experience last week reading the Book of Mormon and got his answer that this is true. We taught him the Gospel of Jesus Christ and moved his date to the 27th of September so he can better be prepared. He was called on two jobs very far away on Sunday but his break in between was coming to Sacrament meeting. How faithful he is! He reads every day.
We also saw Audrey. We taught her the gospel of Jesus Christ and sabbath day holy. We committed her to live it.She is a cute 17 year old and I just see so much in her :)
Peggy we taught the Restoration. Her mom is a member in Washington and desires Peggy to learn about the church. Peggy loved the restoration and definitely saw the truth in it, especially the apostasy. She broke down crying a few times and is really struggling in her life. We told her the gospel brings the happiness she desires and the inner peace that only Jesus Christ can give. Excited to help her come closer to Christ!
Hmmm... any funny moments. We write down tender mercies of the Lord each night and a good portion are food. I ask people how long they've lived in Wisconsin and they correct me "Nope! This is Michigan" oops.
Love you all!
