Hey All:)
I hope you all are having an amazing Christmas Season! This
has been a pretty good week!
Last Monday we met a really cool guy named Steve! He was so
casual. He opened the door and stood there in his underwear and ate his green
beans while we talked for about 1.5 hours. He is so smart! he has read part of
the Book of Mormon before and the Karan. But he said that he want to try it out
again and that if he finds that it is the true then he will be baptized and be
a Mormon. I loved the attitude he has about it all and the church. He doesn't
really care about like what everyone says about the church He just wants to
find out what is the true because there can only be one true church. I loved
it! we are kind of nervous because he is so smart but that will be okay:) that
is what the Spirit is for!
We met with the Boully Family. Which is the less active
Family that wouldn't let anyone in and always looked out the blinds at us when
we came. I cant remember if we told you about them but we had them on our 21day
challenge. Which is to pray for some list of less active or nonmember people
for 21 days morning and night without missing a prayer and the promise is that
someone on the list will accept missionary lessons. on day 17 they reached out to
Bishop and we are now teaching them the lessons for Holden the 9 year old
investigator! they are an amazing family! the best is when I called out the
oldest son for not answering our calls and then Sister Jarvies was like
"yeah and we totally saw ya'll look out the window at us like every
time." hahaha It was so awkward. we all laughed so that was good! They are
so fun! we love them!
We got to meet with a young couple and talk about our loving
Heavenly Father. John doesn't believe in GOD but in a higher power...who is
loving and fatherly like..so I don't know what ya'll think that God is but
that's what I thought. So that is what we are trying to help him understand for
now;)

We met another investigator this week named Charlene. She is
super sweet and loved the Promise in Moroni 10. I am really excited to get to
know her and learn with her. It was pretty funny there too....She was telling
us how she only doesn't like the catholic church because they kicked her nephew
out for being Gay.. so I looked at S. Jarvies like I wanted her to tell
Charlene what we think about that.....but then I just felt so bad because she
looked scared to death... So I just told Charlene that God understands all of
us have our own Struggles and that even though He doesn't tolerate them that He
still will love and help us....so Yeah I Hope that I didn't open a can of
worms by not being bold about it.... but we will find out.
We had a great week! and we are excited to see what this
next week brings! I hope we can continue to spread the good work this week with
Minot:)
Merry Christmas to you all and I hope you all have a
chance to remember what Christmas is really all about!:) I love you all:)
Love, Tay Sister A

It has been so COLD here! I believe this last weekend was in
the Negatives and with wind chill pretty close to -30 degrees! Then on last
Friday, we went to a bonfire on the airforce base at 2 degrees! I don't know
who has a bonfire in the January in North Dakota, but it was fun to say we did
that! There were little marshmallow children everywhere! it was so cool.
