Elder Riley Bennett: WEEK 13-----3 MONTHS ON THE MISSION AND MORE BAPTISMS

3 months out leggooooo!

This week was very busy but also an amazing week! We had the Bertagnole's baptism on Saturday which was definitely the highlight of the week. They were all so excited and there was such a sweet spirit there. We had such a good turn out with the family that came and people from the ward, we filled up nearly the whole chapel! All the girls were smiling and so happy after being baptized. Elder Litster and I got to stand in the circle when they were confirmed and received the Holy Ghost and that was special. They did all 4 after the baptisms. It was so sweet the youngest one who's 10, Cheyenne, was crying after her confirmation blessing and it melted my heart. She had been talking about how excited she was to be baptized since the first day we started teaching them and so I knew how much that it had meant to her and I'll definitely never forget that day and the spirit that was there.

We volunteered at another church that does free dinners on Wednesday's and that was such a fun experience! It's mostly senior citizens that go to the dinner cause there living quarters are across from the church. But we showed up to help out and one of the ladies running it was an older lady herself named Verna and she was so fun! When we asked her if she wanted us to go out and serve them or get them drinks she said "No if we do that, just about all these ladies will die from heart failure, cause we don't usually have such handsome young men here helping out." Oh my goodness I just bout lost it! Verna is awesome tho so funny! While there tho we met a family that we could tell was struggling and we talked with them and are going to start teaching them now.

Definitely saw some miracles this week which was a blessing! We have 2 weeks left in this transfer but there's so much work to be done here! Makes me sad that there's only 2 weeks left cause we're starting to have a lot of success.

Last night for FHE with the Bertagnole's we played Pirate's Dice and I can't tell you how happy I was! We started out with 9 and I made it to the end only to lose to a 6 year old haha! It was so much fun, love their family!

We went through the temple this morning, which was a blessing. The temple here is absolutely beautiful and I loved it!

Much love everybody!!!
