Mariah, Week 24, Zaporozhye

All I want for Christmas is...


a baptism (or two) and some awesome new investigators!

I've come to learn that having new, super-prepared investigators are like new toys. You just want to spend all your time with them, teaching them and watching them grow. Like a Chia-pet!
Sister Nielsen and I haven't found any new investigators like that; we're still trying to work with the investigators that we have. We have two investigators who are on the brink of baptism... they both just need a little bit more encouragement and TLC. Hopefully they will be able to get baptized by the end of the year.
In other news: it snowed -- for real -- for the first time. It's 6 pm, Monday night -- the time when Sister Nielsen and I are supposed to go out and start proselyting... and it's snowing. No joke. And now -- a week later, there is still snow on the ground! But I can see why. It's been below freezing all week. (Burrr!!!) BUT I HAVEN'T SLIPPED ON THE ICE YET! IT'S A MIRACLE!!!

Half of me is thankful for the cold though. It just means that it's easier for us to be able to get into people's homes. :) When we knock on their door and they see us shivering pitifully on their doorstep... a wave of compassion falls upon them and they just can't help but let us in for чай (tea) and let us give a spiritual message. It's a great way to win people's hearts.
Well, that's gonna be it for this week. Short e-mail. More next week.
xoxo
Sister McCrea
