So Monday: we went and hung with the Carters, cause there
isn't a lot for missionaries to do in Beattyville. Then we went and had a
lesson where we had to drop a guy because he just isn't showing any interest
and hasn't been keeping our commitments. Then we went and Saw Our baptismal
date where we had all of the confusing stuff with which parent had custody but
he decided he didn't know enough to be baptized and we read out of the Book of
Mormon with him. Tuesday: we took the Carters out to one of our appointments
and the lady wasn't home so we went and tried a less active with them that
ignored us.. Then we had lunch, then we went and talked with this other
Investigator he have been having trouble getting in contact with him, and he
was outside and he said that they were just getting ready to leave for Florida
for a couple weeks. Then we went and tried a few others that weren't answering
probably asleep, tried a member and a less active that were asleep, then we
went and had a good conversation with two other Less active members. Then we
went and saw another Less active couple. Wednesday: we went up to Campton with
the Caputo's and it was pouring rain! It Rained all day! and we had all Sorts
of Flood Warnings! Then we came back to Beattyville and saw this girl that we
have been teaching and we talked about baptism and what she has been thinking
about it. she hadn't so we read from the Book of Mormon. Thursday: we
were supposed to have District meeting but the mission Shut down the Cars for
the day due to all the snow we got today but we had flooding in our main
street! It was crazy how much water we had pooled up! Friday: we Tried these
investigators but the husband has shut us out! So we went and Saw our Baptism
date that fell through and read out of the Book of Mormon with him. Then we had
Dinner with the Carters. A long with a bunch of Tracting today. Saturday: we did
Weekly Planning due to all of the confusion with what was going on with the
weather. then we went back up to Campton and tired a bunch of people they have
come in contact with in the past, and none were home, but while we were walking
down the road Talking with people and knocking doors we met this super cool
family!!! That are interested in Family History. Then we went and was gonna see
this less active we were supposed to see the other day when we were restricted
from our car and we also ran into another girl that we have been trying to get
into contact with that is a less active, so That was a good deal! Then we went
and had another lesson with the girl that we have been asking and talking about
baptism and she said that she has been thinking a lot about baptism and said
that she thinks she would like to be baptized! and she said but i don't know
what to do now and we were like well keep praying and reading the Book of
Mormon and the next step is to come to church! and re-invited here to
Church. Then after the lesson we had parked at a less active house that
is off the oil instead of in a hole where she lives and we went in and talked
with him and finally met his two grandsons that we have been trying to meet for
the past month! Sunday: we had church and on the second Sundays of every month
Beattyville Branch has a pot luck right after church so we stayed and had some
super awesome food! Then we went and tried some people that have potential but
none were home. but we did catch one and she said that we can't meet her at
home so we would have to call her and set up a time during her lunch time to
have a lesson with her. Then we hurried and talked about the restoration
Pamphlet that we had left with him and he had read the whole thing and was
interested to learn more and he apologized for not reading the Book of Mormon
yet! so we will see the next time we meet with him how the reading is going!
Then we had Dinner with the Carters. I love Sisters Carter Cooking!!
Love,
Elder Durfee
