Happy Thanksgiving!

Wow what an awesome week! Dylan got baptized and confirmed yesterday! It was so cool, the Spirit was so strong and he and his family were so happy! now they have all been baptized and are going to go to the temple to be sealed next year!! so excited! everything I have done has made it worth it to see their happy family. We were so blessed to be a part of this since he was so prepared. 

It doesn't get better than this -Happy Families 

Dylan is the one in the back next to Elder Decker and me

We found a few new less actives and part member families this week, when i first got here some people said dont visit them..not sure why but they are super nice and hopefully we can get the ball rollin with some of them! It is pretty exciting!

We also found this family of 4 who said we could come back and hopefully we can go over there tonight and put them on date! super exciting! 

our ward goal for this year was 12 baptisms and they are at 6 so they have 6 more to go, so that is our goal for December! It will take lots of faith and lots of work, but we know we can do it! 

I love the Holy Ghost and the power it has.

 

I am thankful for so many things. I couldnt even make a list that could include all of the things I am grateful for all I know is that we need to cultivate an Attitude of Gratitude and I am so grateful for a loving Heavenly Father who has given us His Son Jesus Christ and His atonement and for the blessings and joy that this gospel brings to peoples lives, they just have to try it and they can find out for themselves that these things are true. I love it. I am grateful for such good family and friends. I am so grateful to have been born in America, if you havent walked the ghetto streets of another country we have no idea how many blessings we have and the things we take for granted. We are blessed with so much, what a great time to ponder all of our blessings. 

I love you all and hope you have an awesome Thanksgiving!
Love you

Love Elder David Witt
