Hi Everyone,
The mission is going well... We had a remakable experience this week. We found a young woman to teach, and she had us over yesterday. She is of another faith and not really active. We talked with her about eternal families(she has a 2 year old daughter that she absolutely loves!) and she is about to get married... so! needless to say, she LOVED THE IDEA OF FOREVER!(she said that she couldn't stop thinking about it after we left the first time, (door approach)

So we had a first lesson with her, one of the first things she said was " I think all the churches have a little truth in them, but, I don't know which one has all the truth." needless to say, Elder Gurr and I were so impressed! Then we talked about Prophets, and the dispensations made so much sense to her and she said stuff like "This all seems familiar" and so we helped her understand that it was the Holy Ghost... ok then the best part, we talked about the first vision and right after Elder Gurr quoted Joseph Smith's account, she said "That was God and Jesus" and we said "What do you think they said?" and her response surprised us again She said, " Well they were calling him to be a prophet, God and Christ just don't appear like that without something important to do." and then my favorite line "I feel all hot and warm inside and all over!"

That was just one of the greatest lessons I've had. So we'll see her again on Friday and she hopefully has read, she said "I'm a reader, I could have this whole Book of Mormon read by Friday, and I'll pray, because God can give me the answer, and its important if this is true."

We are still walking on air about that lesson...

I hope that this account gives you each the inspiration to look inwardly and realize what wonderful testimonies you have too. Please share them, there are very special people out there waiting to hear and looking for answers.

I Love You All,
Elder Greenhalgh
