We return to the story of the littlest investigator.
It's getting better by the day. Britney's energy and childlike love for the
Gospel is helping her Mom get ready to be fully into the church, and in turn is
letting Vickie help Britney get baptized. Vickie has righteous desires and is
very humble. She has always wanted to be at church, but I think that the push
of a little child being like "I want to go to church with you!" has
made the biggest difference. Britney has even been working on her
nonmember Dad haha. He doesn't believe in organized religion really, but he
strongly believes that if you unite yourself with a church you should be
faithful to it, so he wants Vickie and Britney to keep going.
I have a few other random stories to tell about
the week. We helped out at the library again for the Summer Reading thing. This week it was a magic show. I
love a service project that involves us seeing a magic
show! We mostly just take pictures for them, and help move the furniture
around. But this week I got to be the leader of singing BINGO before the
magic show started. Getting the badge out there in creative ways? check.
Also Brewton, Alabama made one major step towards
becoming Mormonville, AL. I think we might have to compete with Monroeville to
get that actual name, but nevertheless, we have a store now called "THE
MODEST CLOSET", which sells basically maxi skirts and cute shoes. We're
actually pretty sure that it's owned by the local Pentecost church (the kind of
Pentecost that is around Brewton is very conservative-- we see lots of and lots
of entire families with mom and all the daughters dressed in skirts everyday.) But
hey someone is sharing our sentiment of not enough modest clothes. Common
ground I say. We are shopping there the moment we get out of this library. :D
It just opened on Saturday. We couldn't shop there because it wasn't P-Day, but
we totally walked by and talked to the owners, and then picked up some opening
day barbeque. I like that place already. I'm looking forward to another good week. Transfers
come out soon. What is your guess, my followers? 6-more weeks of Boonies
for me?
