On Thursday of last week we went down to try and visit the two less actives that live at the marine school. we got down there right as it was getting dark... and as we were walking to their dorm we figured they probably wouldn't let two girls into the dorms at that time of night... but we both felt really impressed to go there so we just laughed and walked back to the bus!
On the bus we were talking to some marines from the school... midway through our conversation, our investigator Armando walked by! We were trying to get him baptized in september but he had been MIA for WEEKS! So we ran to the back of the bus to talk to him. He was really excited to see us and we set up an appointment to visit him. He was with one of his friends, so I was talking to him and he seemed really interested. I tried to give him a BOM but he said he didn't want to lose it so he told us to drop it off at his house the next day :) We stopped by his house the next day.. he wasn't home but we met with his wife who is also interested in meeting with us again! So, hello 3 new investigators ;)
Armando came to church on sunday and he LOVED it. he is really excited to be baptized, but he is afraid he doesn't know enough. we are still working with him as much as we can though :)
On Monday we had mission conference. Bruce A Carlsen of the 70 came and talked to us. It was amazing! He talked a lot about how we can become consecrated to the Lord without becoming perfect... which was nice to hear :) I'd love to tell you everything he talked about but it was a long conference and i'm almost out of time!
After conference on monday we went to go look up another less active I had never met. it took us FOREVER to find his house.. and when we got there we found out that he hadn't lived there for at least 4 years. awesome. We walked back to the bus and there was a guy standing there that Sister Richeson started talking to. He was really impressed with what we do as missionaries. He has SO much faith and he's really humble. I'm excited to go and meet with him as well!
This transfer went by SO fast. I can't believe October is already here! There's more I could say but I'm so out of time... So, until next week!
Love you all!!
