Catching Up!!

I appologize!  I was stalling a little bit before I posted her latest letters - hoping to have some pictures to post with them.  But to no avail!  So here are her 2 latest letters ~ without pictures!~

Hello!
Yeah, p-day was fun.... except for the fact we got in a car accident.  But it's okay, we were all okay.  The door was dented and the other sisters had to get a new car, but all is well.  It wasn't our fault and I was not the driver.  We also got towed a couple days ago, but we got the car back so all is well there too.  Last week was kinda crazy, everyone in our apartment except for me was sick at different times.  Luckily that's all over and we are all well!  We haven't seen Alice since the first day we met her.  She is around on Saturdays and that appears to be the best time to catch her, but we've had full schedules on Saturdays, that or she's been gone.

This week we've been working with the members more.  We put together mini Preach My Gospels for leaders in the ward.  It has all the lessons and the ward leaders responsibilities in it.  We're going around and giving it to them, and teaching their families FHE.  So for we've only done it once and we've set it up to do another on Sunday.  Everything is good here.  I love you all!  Have a great week!
Love, Sister Wankier

Hey Family,
Today we went to the city for p-day.  We went to a couple monuments like the new Martin Luther King Jr. monument.  Also for the zone activity we went to the zoo, that was pretty cool.  On Sunday we had four investigators come.  Let me explain.  One of our investigators has been ready for baptism for months, but she is waiting till April till her friend can be here to see it.  Her name is Michelle.  Most people think she's a member.  She goes to the gospel doctrine class, and she wants to make her own baptism outfit because the jumpsuits are ugly.  Oh, and she calls me Wine Garden because she can't remember Wankier.  We have another investigator who is VERY slowly progressing.  He's been coming to church for a while and just says that he hasn't got an answer yet.  Then we have a 12 year old that found a ride to church on her own this week!!  She's awesome.  Lastly there was an investigator that I haven't taught yet and Sister Gordon has only seen at church one time, so hopefully we'll see him more.  We have another investigator that usually comes, but she couldn't this week.  She should be baptized and wants to be, but her husband doesn't want her to and Preach My Gospel says not to baptize if their spouse is against it, so we'll work with hiim.  But she has visiting teachers and so does Michelle, it's great!

The lady, Alice, who said she'd come to church, hasn't yet.  But we stopped by her house and she wasn't home but her mother-in-law and daughter were, so they invited us in.  The mother-in-law is catholic and told us we wouldn't convert her, so we just talked with her about her life and religion and she fed us.  She was super nice.  Alice was gone for a few days, but is back now.  We'll try to contact her Saturday.
Well, I love you all!  Have a great week!  Love, Sister Wankier
