**Hi everyone, I apologize that I am posting Amy's email from October 20th over a week late, but I got pretty sick with parasites. I will do my best to make sure this never happens again.**
What a FANTASTIC week! On Wednesday night, we were having a lesson with a recent convert, and we asked him how his scripture reading is going. Every other time we have asked, he has said that he just hasn't had time or something like that. When we asked him this week, he proudly stated that he had downloaded Gospel Library onto his phone and reads his scriptures every day while he's on the train to work! How great is that!
Friday night, we were having a lesson with a man who has been taking the lessons sporadically over the past four years, and has accepted a baptism date before, but hasn't been baptized because of family concerns. We taught the lesson about the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and at the end of the lesson we invited him to be baptized. He accepted the date for baptism on November 8th! We are so excited for him and his family. The gospel of Jesus Christ blesses your families.
On Saturday, I ran into a good friend from back home. She used to be the ward organist in Fairmont, but moved out here to Utah a little while ago. She was driving around, saw me and my companion, and stopped to say hi and give me a hug. It really made my day. I am so thankful to have the opportunity to get to know so many wonderful and amazing people all over the U.S. Each one of you has made a huge impact on my life. Know that you are loved by me as well as by your Heavenly Father.
There is a lot going on here in West Jordan, and I love every second of it. I especially love eating chicken enchiladas that the members make for dinner. It is officially my favorite dish out here.
By the way, I am compiling a list of my favorite scriptures, so if you have a few that you think need included, please let me know!
