Week 48- The 2 Greatest Weeks on my Mission




 President and Sister Mendenhall saying goodbye!

 Aunt Karen, Grandma and Sister Simmons who I live with.
She visited Grandma when she was in Heber

Oh my gosh I love it mom! That is hilarious! Sister Simmons is this  widow we live with.  She is so sweet and is so nice for us! She makes us dinners the nights we don't have anything and we have a fun time together and make her laugh! I'm glad she got to meet Grandma Brown she reminds me of grandma,  they have very similar personalities! That's so funny let me type up my email really quick. You're going to be blown away at the week  Elder Bird and I have had have had! 

You won't believe the kind of week we had! Elder Bird and I were on fire this week.  It has probably been the  2 greatest weeks on my mission. Elder Bird and I ended up finding 14 new investigators with 2 @ sac meeting and 2 very ready for baptism and  with a third that's close,  when he gets back from his trip. We talked to absolutely everybody that came in our path. like we didn't miss a single person. 11 of them were YSA investigators as well! We found one of them on Saturday at like 7:00. He is about 24,  really cool guy and we had a 2 hr conversation and we invited him to come to church! He accepted and was glad he has friends now. His mom committed suicide about 2 years ago, his dad isn't supportive and his sister lives all the way out in Texas. He lives by himself in this apartment and just wants to feel peace in his life. We told him how the ward is like a family and we got him a ride to church because he didn't have a car. He came to church stayed all 3 hours and in Elders Quorum he got up and thanked the ward for their love and support and gave us a shoutout saying how thankful he was to be invited to church and how he feels like this is the right place to be. On his ride home with one of the members he expressed he wants to join our church and be apart of this. We are meeting with him this week to discuss baptism.   God has been placing investigators in our path and it has been awesome. Elder Bird and I took advantage of every opportunity to talk to people and we have been doing it with the very powers of heaven. Regardless of awkward situations we have been trying not to let the lord down. The Lord has truly been placing people in our path because of our diligence to buckle down and get out of our comfort zones. Now its becoming 2nd nature. Its heating up down here in crowfoot YSA and hopefully we can keep it rollin! Thank you for your continuous love and support and I won't bother you to much while you are on  your vacation. Hope you are enjoying your little break! Love you both! Grandma told us dad bore a beautiful testimony and I wish I would of been there to here it! Love you!

Elder Brown
