December 12, 2017










Family,
This week went pretty good. We had an awesome miracle happen! We found a new investigator this week. His name is A and he is in his early 60's. It was really awesome how we found him and his story is pretty cool. He was married to a less active member and they were married for 27 years. The whole time that they were married his wife would always tell him that one day she wanted to go to the temple and be sealed to him. All of her family are members of the church and live in Utah and California. They started going back to church and not long after they did she ended up getting cancer and passed away 3 months later. (which would have been last March) Before she passed away she made him promise that he would seek out the Mormon's and learn more about what they have to say. Well at first he didn't and he tried to deal with all of the grief on his own. But it just got to be to much for him to handle. So finally he found out who the Bishop was over his area and called him and set up an appointment. Our Bishop took us with him to go and visit. A. was so excited that we were all there and all he wants is to learn how he can be with his wife again. We taught him again a few days after our visit with the Bishop and he is now on date for January 12th!  He is a great guy and we are so excited to keep working with him!

Mom... yes. I had a really good birthday. Elder Rudd made sure that everyone new it was my birthday!! We went to an awesome members house after church. (The Hansen's) and they made us omelettes for lunch and put candles in it. Later that day we went to the Brandon's and they had apple pie so it was a good day. At church they also managed to put a sign on my back that said "It's my birthday tell me how awesome I am" It was on my back for about 15 minutes after sacrament until I caught on to it.  ha ha. But it was good. Thanks for all the birthday wishes and the packages I got them all so thank you!!

Elder Rudd is getting transferred. I will be getting a new companion. It is a Elder that came out at the same time as me. So I hope this next transfer goes good!! 

I'm not sure about what time we will Skye for Christmas. I will have to talk with my new companion about that and let you know next week or have someone text you or something.

I love you all have a good week!
Elder Ethan Stucki
