"Adventures in Trenton" - Letter, February 24, 2014

Ok, so this week has been really good. I have been sick, and it has kicked my butt a little, but I am doing good now. And besides that, it has been a really awesome week. We have a couple of investigators that are awesome.

We found the one by divine accident, really. It was Wednesday, or so, and I had decided to make a conscious effort to ask for referrals from everyone, something we should do anyway. And I asked a less active, and he said there was a former investigator right across the street. We went right over and talked to her and we found out she had been to church before and she wanted to come back. She was looking for a dress to wear too. Anyway, she said we could come back later. Saturday rolls around and we go to Salvation Army to find her a dress. We went and found one, and then I went to the doctor. Later that night, we took the dress to her and told her that we would love to find her a ride to church. She said sure.

Anyway, long story short, she has been taught about a year ago, and is willing to learn. There was a sister at church that when she saw her was so excited. Apparently, this was a fairly serious investigator and then something went down and she disappeared. Well, we have found her! And we aren't letting her go this time. :D Oh, her name is Sharon.

And then there is Greg. We haven't seen him as much this week, but he has already read all of 1 Nephi. He did it in about 2 weeks!!! What! This is insane, and awesome. I am really excited. But the thing is, he is looking so hard for answers, he's missing the ones he's getting. But that's ok. Maybe the answer needs to come from me and Sister Johnson, and we need to change something in the way we teach. Only God know. I will just keep praying and looking for revelation. It will all be ok. I know it.

Oh, and I got to sing in the Ward Talent Show. It was awesome!!! The talent show, not just me. There is a guy in the ward who is hilarious and is a professional performer. He juggled 3 8-pound bowling balls, and he did some ventriloquism, and some other stuff. He was great! I borrowed a guitar and I sang “Carolina In the Pines.” If I knew some less worldly stuff, I would have done that, but it was fun either way. I miss performing like I used to. Oh well. Someday soon.

Well, I love you all and I hope you are doing great!!! I know this Gospel is True. Nothing in this world can compare to it. Our Savior loves us, and is willing to help us in every way possible. He came to us to do the will of the Father, and because He did, He taught us how to love others. I know that through Christ, and God, and the Holy Ghost, we can truly come to love our neighbors and our families.

Love, Sister Worthen
