"Hey Davis Creek 3rd Ward! It's been really nice to hear from those of you who have written me! Missouri is wonderful! I'm serving in Farmington, MO, which I find really ironic but also really cool. The work is going great, since I've come out we've had 2 baptisms; and as of last night, set a date for a 3rd on January 2nd! So the work is really moving forward. One thing I've really learned out here is how true this church really is. Of course I know it is, but I had no idea how strongly it proves itself. This church is undoubtedly the one and only true church of Jesus Christ. I know it with all of my heart, and its such an amazing experience to see investigators come to know it for themselves too.
One experience I'd really like to share; one of our newest investigators named Bobby. We were teaching him and watched the 'Restoration,' DVD with him. As soon as the DVD was over he asked us, "I really want to read some of that book. (the Book of Mormon) Can you get me a copy?" And of course we did. And he has been reading. But as we finished teaching him on our second visit he told us that after studying and looking for religion for 22 YEARS, we've made more sense to him than anyone. I really enjoy meeting with Bobby. The Spirit is always really strong in our appointments with him.
I just want to bear testimony that I know Joseph Smith saw what he saw, and I know that this truly is, a great, and marvelous work. And I'm proud to be a part of it. I hope all is going well in Farmington, Utah! I love you all so much and I am so grateful for all the great examples you have all been to me as I've grown up. Keep up the good work!
