Another Fantastic Week in Plano!

September 15, 2014

This past week has been great! We went on exchanges with the Plano first ward on Tuesday. I worked with Elder Evans in his area. We did service during the afternoon. It had come up the day before. We had dinner with one of their investigator families. H. and C. and we shared a Family Proclamation to the World with them. They loved it and hung up the framed copy Elder Evans gave them before we left. They fed us Indian food and my mouth was on fire! It was good but spicy.

Elder Briggs and Elder Evans both were a little sick durring the week but still worked hard - to the best of their abilities. They are over the worst part of a sore throats and feeling awful. I'm probably going to be next but hopefully not!

On Wednesday, Elder Briggs and I visited H. We read in the Book of Mormon with him in 1 Nephi chapters 10-11. He asked really good questions and loves reading in it. We invited him to stake conference but he didn't come.

We taught T. and her daughters the restoration! It went great! They all commited to read from the Book of Mormon as a family! They didn't make it to stake conference this week. They all enjoyed church when they did come. They will probably be at church this up coming Sunday.

We also meet with N. and scheduled a baptismal date for the 11th of October! He is really prepared for the gospel! It's incredible! He loves the Book of Mormon and shared his written testimony with us. We taught him the Gospel of Jesus Christ and he understood all of it. Some truly are kept from the truth only because they know not where to find it.

The Lord's work is moving forward in the 9th ward and it is a blessing to be able to be a part of it!

Love y'all and hope y'all have a great week!

Love ya!
Elder Drew Bowen
