I heard Steven made the LP Varsity Basketball Team!! Thats so
awesome!! Man am I proud of him:) Thanks for the greenie package ;) haha
I loved it! The new bed stuff is keeping me nice and toasty which is
good! Its been warming up a bit, but its suppose to get really cold tomorrow!
The Elders Quorum President is coming to Utah this next week and his
sister lives right down by the Stroms kind of! I gave him your guys
numbers and told him to call you! His name is Darren Lofthouse, He's a
really nice guy! His wife is spanish and kind of reminds me of you
(Because she’s really tan) :) Let me know if you guys meet!
So
this week was really good. We had a couple investigators show up to
church again which was awesome! The work is moving forward quick here.
We have a good amount of baptismal dates set for December so it should
be a great upcoming month! This past week we taught our investigator J
the law of chastity. He told us in the past that his fiancee' would
sleep over at times so we were a bit nervous that this would hold him
back a little. When we explained the law of chastity and the blessings
that come from it you could tell he was thinking hard about it. We told
him strait up "Look, in order to progress towards baptism you cant be
sexually active with your fiance and she cant sleep over anymore, so J,
will you commit to live the law of chastity" without any hesitation he
said yes and that he would let his fiance know of the changes that were
going to need to happen! It was so cool! I know the spirit testified to
him that what we were telling him would bless him. So my new comp has
been out 9 months, he said he hasn’t seen a ton of success though and
wants that to change. I feel like we were put together for that exact
reason, so we could see success together. We also have two young kids
named K and R who are progressing really well too! The ward is doing
well at fellowshipping them which is awesome!
This
work is so amazing. I’m constantly asking myself if I’m doing
everything I can to be the best missionary possible. I feel like I’m
working pretty hard because I can barley stay awake during nightly
planning. Days are flying by, it’s nuts. I feel like I don’t have
enought time to get done all the work that needs to be done, but I’m
trying my very hardest to do all I can. I love you so much! Thank you
for all the support and prayers, I can definitely feel them! Be good and
keep me posted on anything new that happens.
Love your son Elder Ashworth
