Yo, everything here is going good just preachin the good word. The Lewis couple is planning on getting baptized Nov. 6th so its a long wait... they are solid!! We will also have another one soon, its a 12 year old girl named Emily. It was a less active part member family who is now fully active! They are progressing very well. we are doing a lot of finding too so it's been a pretty good week. I can't remember if I told you this but Elder Hawks first day here we tracted into a house full of Jehova wittness people and they let us right in.... just to bash with us of coarse. It was pretty funny. Elder Hawks didn't know what to think haha they were all attacking him. it was soo funny. Elder hawks is a stud! The kid runs the mile in 4 minutes and 10 seconds! He runs for SUU. The kid never gets tired. He runs me to death in the mornings. hahah thanks for the departing instructions... they don't send me those till my last transfer haha.

Elder Brown and Shelton

Hey whats up? Sounds like they are doing a lot if cool stuff in honor of dad. I know he would be proud. Isn't it a great blessing to know and understand the plan of salvation? People here don't even believe families will be together after this life.... they say they know that they are going to heaven but they won't even know who their family is when they get there. Honestly I don't think heaven would be heaven without my family. It's great to know that our Father in heaven knew us before we were even here on this earth, that we lived with him, that we are His children. I am sooooo greatful for the restored gospel!!!! so the new mission Pres. is AWESOME!!! By far the smartest man alive. everything is going good here. we will be having a baptism on the 24th so that's good and we are still tryin to find people to teach. Elder Shelton and I are doing good!

hey this story is going in the monthly mission report called "The Way" just thought I would send it to ya- love,
From me-Elder Brown
One beautiful day in Mo-town, Elder Howard and Elder Brown were following up with a potential investigator in an apartment complex but could not find the correct address. We knocked into a real nice guy named Denarius and told him we'd like to share a message with him. So he invited us in and we taught him about the restoration. He had a lot of unanswered questions that we were able to answer. He invited us back and we continued to visit with him. We soon found that he had three children and a super nice girlfriend. As we continued to see them, we took different members over there each time to get them acquainted with the ward. They started to progress very well, but the ol' Devil didn't allow them to sail smoothly. Over a period of weeks, they were preparing to be baptized, but due to them not being married it was delayed. Denarius and Natosha wanted to be married and the Bishop gladly volunteered to help with that. A few days prior to getting their marriage license, Denarius' wallet with the money to buy the license was stolen and also Natosha's work place had been broken into that same night. Elder Brown and Elder Shelton immediately called some members of the ward to begin to pray specifically for the Williams family. Then, a miracle happened, they received an early paycheck and were able to now buy the marriage license. Bishop Nesmith married them that night in the church. One week later, Denarius, Joe, Donyea, and Trinady entered the waters of baptism. Due to some word of wisdom issues, Natosha was set to be baptized the following week. She was then baptized by her newly ordained husband, Denarius. The family is going strong and has their eye set on the temple to be sealed as a family for eternity.
