A family to church




My Dearest Family,




Well, we taught some good lessons and some...ok...lessons, but a whole family came to church this Sunday! Ya-hoo! The Evans family joined us to church and wanted a lesson on the restored gospel, so we taught it to them. It was great! We'll also be meeting with them later this week and hopefully they can come to a session of General Conference. We have another investigator, Keiko, that would really like to see General Conference, but she's got family things this weekend. Her husband dropped us and is no longer interested in learning, but Keiko is bound to find out if its true and has set goals to finish the Book of Mormon and is reading it every night. I hope it doesn't hinder too much with her family by taking the lessons on her own now. I'm sure when she finds out its truth things will start coming around. Her husband is just too comfortable with life right now to want to make changes. We also got a great new investigator, Alicia, from a member. Alicia lives next door to the Bushman's (member). A few weeks ago, Sister Bushman told us about someone we could do service for because she is recently separated and the yard is a little much to try and keep up with, so we step into the picture. Last week, the Bushmans had us and Alicia over for dinner...and now we are teaching her the restored gospel and she is eating it up. We told her about Jesus Christ coming to America and her jaw dropped and gave her just the motivation to read the Book of Mormon. Pretty good week I'd say.Well, it was great to hear from you all. Thanks for the updates about your lives! I love you all!Oh yeah! the picture is because I haven't used my camera in a while and I thought is was time to give it a new picture, so there's my goofy self for you all.




Love ya, -Elder Osness
