The wedding on Saturday went incredible! I got to stand in as a witness. Not really sure what that means, but I felt honored and signed the papers anyway!! :) I was just so happy to see Dwayne and Crystal making those first steps to follow the Savior. Dwayne is so excited to be baptized. We went over the baptismal interview questions with him and he is solid! His baptism isn't until the 8th of March but it's still coming up pretty fast. Great news, his daughter Karolanne, who is 14 is now also on date to be baptized! We are working with the rest of the family as well, but they have not yet accepted the invitation to be baptized. Decorating the cake and the cultural hall was so much fun and Dwayne invited us over to his mothers house after (who is super catholic). We were really nervous but it ended up being just like our family parties. The people were so friendly and his mother even invited us to come back and talk with her. Which is awesome!! We had 3 investigators at church on Sunday, which is the most New Glasgow has seen in a very long time! Everything is going great here and I really just thank Heavenly Father for each day I get to spend serving in this area. I love being a missionary so much!
Oh funny story, we were street contacting and we were talking to this woman about the Savior. We had a good long conversation that went on for a few minutes. We talked about how through His atonement we can be cleansed from sin. She's like oh.. kinda like yoga? we were like what?! Yoga cleanses you from your sins? haha I wasn't really prepared to address that concern. we laughed about that forever. The things people say.. haha Anyway I hope you all have a great week! The weather has been awesome and so is being a missionary! I love this gospel! It truly has the power to change lives! :) thanks for all you do to support me, and missionaries throughout the world!
Love
Sister B
