getting things in order‏

Dear Family, The pictures: I still love the crazy sky weather here in Oklahoma! Just as a storm was blowing in Elder Baker and I decided to take a picture. The other is of the weather calming and the sun of an old day setting.Well, I'm starting to figure the area out a little and ward is a ton of support for our efforts, so we are happy campers here in Norman 4th ward. Last week we taught Katelyn again, who is getting baptized next month and things are looking great! We had an awesome lesson and she has a great testimony that is getting stronger and stronger. After our lesson we put together a calendar/plan for our lessons before her baptism and the chapters in the Book of Mormon she'll read on what days. It was cool to see how much enjoyment she got out of it because its her date and her schedule and her progress, so she can track and see all the things she's done to prepare for baptism as the days go by. We're pretty excited! I was talking to the ward mission leader the other day about her progress and he mentioned that the last time somebody was baptized in this ward was April, over a year ago, so everyone is pretty excited to see someone make progress. There are a few others we are working with that I think in time will make that commitment. Things are really good. We talked to a guy the other day as we passed by him and after talking to us for a little while agreed to let us come by and teach him some about the church. At first he just told us he'd wouldn't mind learning about the church, but wanted to do his own research, but later agreed to have us over. Yesterday we went by and he let us in and we taught and he had read into the first couple chapters and understood what was happening and from that reading his intrest peak went up and had a lot of great questions about the church and how we have the Book of Mormon and what its about entirely. Its great when you teach someone completely to their needs because they are searching and learning for themselves. His name is Arlyn. We also taught someone who was baptized three years ago and is inactive, but was excited to see us. He is Daniel and is wife is not a member and that is why they haven't been coming to church. She is from Russia and wanted to stay with her family religion, Greek Orthidox. She's real nice and I think if we can just get her to learn and seek answers from God she will jump on it fast because Daniel is ready to get back into it.Well it was a great week, but the computer time is almost gone, so I love you and hope life is going great at home! -Elder Osenss
