Durham - Week 20

Hey everyone!

Last week was a blast!

Elder Whatcott is a ton of fun and a phenomenal missionary. We did a lot of less active work this last week because we had a lot of appointments cancel, but we had a great  week.

Yesterday was probably the best day. We have an investigator, Brother Rosenthal, he has said he wanted to be baptized for a few months now but just a few weeks ago he became sincere about it. He has also developed several serious health problems over the last little while but he is holding to the rod. He hasn't been at church the last few weeks because of his health but yesterday he made it! He thinks his health problems got worse because he tried to quit smoking to fast so he is going to try again but a little slower this time and will hopefully be baptized sometime in February.

Then after church we went to see a less active, Brother Batterson. He was busy but said we could come back on Wednesday. So we started knocking doors in the area, found an amazing family but sadly they weren't interested, or at least not yet. Then we met another amazing single lady, Marilyn, she wasn't interested either, so we will probably give her to the Sisters. Then we had a feeling we should head back to the car to go to a different area. When we got back to the car Brother Batterson was taking out his trash and we started talking a little bit and he invited us in and we had a great lesson with him.

We finished out the night at the Harmon’s home for dinner and had a wonderful lesson and watched the “He is the Gift” video. Sister Harmon was crying and the Spirit was so powerful! Christmas is the best time of year!!!

Love you all!

Love,
Elder Harper
