Jennifer Came to Church Sunday!

Jennifer came to church on Sunday! YAY! The relief society has been doing a great job at supporting her and making her feel loved. Thank you for your prayers! Jennifer is doing so much better and is working towards her baptism on May 6th.
Yesterday was such a miracle. We went to go visit a potential investigator named, "Nini" and discovered that she actually moved. The person living there, Patrick, was so nice and very interested in the message we had to share. After coming home from the military, Patrick said he wanted to be more involved with religion, not just attend church on Christmas. He told us of an experience when he toured around the Jordan River! He said there were many people getting baptized in the river (in some other religion) "just for show, or selfies," but he knew it was a sacred river. He needed more time to think about getting baptized. Instead of just getting dunked for his bucket list, Patrick filled his water bottle with the water of the river. He showed the very bottle filled with jordan river water. I got to hold it. It was a very spiritual experience for him. We testified of the restoration of the gospel and so much joy filled his eyes. He's coming to conference this weekend and specifically asked if we could teach him and give him the Book of Mormon. It was amazing. There are people everywhere like this, who are prepared and ready for the gospel! We must reach out to them.
LOVE YOU ALL.
ps/ we matched the elders this sunday so we had to take a pic
