That's right, we've finally gotten moved in! It took us 5 weeks to move out, but we are absolutely spoiled in our new apartment! It's nice to be able to have my own study space that isn't right next to the run-down pool table. (Yes, there was a pool table in the last apartment, and by no means was it a Brunswick!)
The work accelerated this week! We were able to put 4 people on date! It was truly miraculous to see! Elder Wheadon just keeps going and he doesn't stop! In fact right now, he's contacting a Hispanic here in the Library! He has an energy that just keeps everything going!
Lately we've been working with a less-active named Sister Martinez. (I can't remember what I've talked about in past letters) Sister Martinez seems to be the constant source of our work. We constantly have lessons with her, and one of our investigators on date named Daniel. Us working with her and her friends has gotten her back to church, and gotten a future priesthood holder on date! Elder Wheadon and I are really excited about her and Daniel.
Daniel is a good Hispanic man. Very soft-spoken, and constantly searching for the truth! We had a lesson with him last Monday to get him started in his Book of Mormon reading. We also extended to him the invitation to ask for Sundays off from work. Both he is doing! Our last lesson we were able to teach lesson 3 from Preach my Gospel. We prefaced it by reading the first paragraph of the Book of Mormon stating that the Book of Mormon contained the plentitude of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Doing it this way we were able to connect the dots for him with the Book of Mormon, Baptism, and if he persevered, he would be able to be in the Celestial Kingdom! There was an amazing spirit during the lesson as Elder Wheadon extended the big missionary commitment. Baptism. He accepted, and he now has a date for the 10th of December! I do see this man being baptized, and I feel that we have been guided to find him.
I thank you all for your love! Especially for your packages! Today we are going to make a key-lime pie to celebrate Elder Wheadon's 6 month mark! You are all always in my prayers.
Para Siempre,
Elder A. Ipson
