G-Town is Poppin'

We had a great week this past week! Hopefully y'all all enjoyed thanksgiving and ate a ton! I know I did! 

Thanksgiving was so fun! We spent most of the day helping a family we are teaching cook and then we ate with them. That was at 4. Then at 5 we had ANOTHER dinner with another family we are teaching. Some words of advice: give yourself at least two hours before eating a second Thanksgiving dinner. We were so full! Then we spent the rest of the night hanging out with one of our ward mission leaders, his family, and the sisters that just got transferred into Paris (Sister Fielding and my home girl Sister Tenney!!). It was a lot of fun and made me think about how grateful I really am to be serving here with so many amazing members, investigators, and other missionaries. 

We saw so many miracles this week it was crazy! So I was starting to think that we had contacted all or most of the non-members in our area but this week we found two new, promising investigators and we got referrals for a couple more that we haven't contacted yet. The Lord is blessing us so much. Our first new investigator is Kevin. He used to meet with missionaries years ago and believes everything about the church but just hasn't been baptized! So we gave him a Book of Mormon and we will meet with him on Wednesday. Our other new investigator is a lady named Vivian. Sister Reupena kept feeling inspired that we needed to go knock on her door so we did and she invited us in and told us about her son who had recently committed suicide. We talked to her about the Plan of Salvation and the Book of Mormon and we will be seeing her Wednesday as well!

We also had Rorie and Brylee's baptism this week! It was so good! They had a couple family members speak and then their uncle baptized them. Then they were confirmed on Sunday. We were so proud of them and excited for this step they've taken in their lives. 

So things are pretty good here in G-town! You can feel the Christmas spirit for sure and hopefully that will soften some hearts and make it a little easier on us :)

Love yall so much! Have a great week! 

Until next time,

Sister Park
