Hey everyone,                                                                     Jan. 19, 2015

Well tonight is going to have to be pretty short it's already 6 pm!  It’s crazy how fast the day can go by.  We just decided today that we're having a transfer on Wednesday and we're getting 2 new missionaries tomorrow so this week is shaping up to be pretty busy already.  And we are having a transfer next week too and then in 3 weeks.  Transfers, transfers, transfers.  Seems like that's all we do these days.  I wish all missionaries would be like Alma and Amulek.  

We were able to get some good people to church on Sunday.  We have been working with the husband of a recent convert and he finally was able to get to church on Sunday and is so excited to be baptized.  We've got another man we have been working with too that was able to come.  He was born a Christian and is trying to figure out what is right in this life.  We had a great lesson with him after church.  His Uncle decided to join the lesson too.  Turns out that man is a pastor in an other church who objected mightily to anything else other than the Bible.  The lesson was on the Book of Mormon.  He just couldn't fathom that there is more than the Bible.   It was literally like an angel and a devil fighting over him.  After the lesson he walked us out and asked some more questions and was pretty excited for us to give him a Book of Mormon.  

We had a crazy call on Tuesday.  We were getting ready to take some missionaries to the airport, and a missionary that is in my ward, Elder L., called me.  Sidenote, Elder L. is from Middleton and went to Middleton high school.  We know a couple of the same people.  If you remember that blind date I went on with Jared Luke's niece, he knows her. Small world.  Anyway, he called and said that he has 3 people who just showed up at the chapel asking to be baptized.  What?  After the airport we ran out to meet the people, it’s a mother and her 2 sons.  We had a member take us to their house  and met the husband and taught him too.  Great lesson.  Really really good.  We went back the next day and the kids recognized the picture of Joseph Smith and everything.  Good people.

That's all the time I have now.  Love you all!!!

Love,

Elder Clark
