Planting Seeds

Hey y'all!!!!
This week has been good. Mostly seed planting, which makes for a dull email. But hey, at least you're getting one! We didn't meet with our new investigators...they sadly cancelled but we are determined to get them this week!
I am writing this very quickly and my brain is scattered due to a crazy day and the news of an engagement and what not...so sorry this is a wild email!!!!
I can't even remember what happened this week....let me get out my planner.
Susan! So Susan is awesome!!!! She is a former investigator kind of. She was introduced to the church years ago and had a friend who is a member. That friend talked to her about the Book of Mormon and she decided to read it. She has been taught by missionaries on and off for a long time and she is basically a member minus the fact that she doesn't go to church and isn't baptized. She isn't baptized because she decided along time ago that she wasn't going to do anything without her husband....and her husband isn't interested. :( She watches conference and loves it! We don't understand her...we are meeting with herTuesday and are going to teach her the few things she hasn't already been taught. We are praying about what she needs to be able to accept baptism.

We also taught another investigator, Jeanie. She isn't too interested in being baptized (yet...) but has questions. She is going through a lot in her life right now and loves being able to talk to us about God. She has so much potential and wants to come to church! She is waiting until January when we change to the1:00 block because one of the things going on with her is not sleeping at night. We are focusing on coming to church and reading the Book of Mormon with her right now. She feels like she needs to read the bible if she is going to read anything, so we are going to go over and read with her to get her started! Once she gets started, I know she won't want to put it down! She is awesome and keeps saying how there is a reason that we came over. There is a reason she let us in. There is always a reason...we know that this message will help her get through this hard time and are excited to be able to help her!

It has been a good week! Sorry for the scatter-brained email...blame Nicole and Nate! ;) Love you all!!! Have a Merry Christmas!
Love,
Sister Abbie London
