Dear Family and Friends
Hi everyone! We had so much stuff happen this week. It was so amazing! We are staying together for another transfer. We are so excited! We have many investigators that are progressing now! We had six people come to conference on Saturday and Sunday. Elizabeth, Maria and Jason, Marius, and Thomas. They all enjoyed the conference. Many of the talks seemed to be perfect for us as missionaries and for our investigators. The interesting thing about the talks is that I know the Sentelous family that Elder Anderson was talking about. They were in the Miami Shores Ward. There is a family from Maimi named the Manzur's that moved up to the branch, and they were good friends with the Sentelous Family. The Sentelous's had some extra tickets for conference and the Manzur's went to Salt Lake. The Sentelous' moved to Utah when I was in Miami. It was so cool to hear that talk.
The branch had its first official Daily Dose English Class. Brother and Sister Rosato are the teachers. It is the same class that we did in Coconut Creek a year and a half ago. It is so nice that they have called teachers for it. Hermana, Marlene, Marius, and Maria were at the class. They all loved it and all have agreed to come for the future classes. We have more people who are coming this Wednesday.
We had the Branch Talent show on Friday. It was really good. Jason and Maria also came. Our most progressing investigators are getting immersed in the church and are becoming very active. Jason has been coming very regularly to church and activities since I was with Elder Snyder and Owens. This branch has so much talent in it. Brother Hawkshaw played several compositions on the people that he made for some famous people. It was really awesome.
We got a really awesome new investigator named Edward. We harvested into him. He was drunk when we went up to him. He said that it was a wake up call for him. We had been having trouble getting a hold of him after that. But then we passed by and he was there. Elder Sommerfeldt, one of the Senior missionaries came out with us. He said that baptism was the next step in his life and he needed to do that. He agreed to be baptized. He has a date. For the 14th of April. The Spirit was so strong in the lesson and he was very excited. But then we had a follow up lesson. We were at Sister Georges' house, which is about two or so blocks away from his house. We saw him ride his bike right past her house and he saw us. He didn't say anything. We wonder if he was drunk again. It was kind of weird because we knew he was sincere at the time, otherwise the spirit wouldn't have manifested itself in the way that it did.
At the Talent show Elder Pearce sang and I played the Piano. It turned out really well. We came up with a very creative number to do, and part of it was a skit. Sister Hawkshaw recorded it, so you can ask her to send it to you.
Love,
Elder Seamons
Hi President! We are doing really well as a companionship. The district is also doing really well. Elder Pearce and I are really happy that we can be together for another transfer. We are going to make the most of it.
We had some really amazing harvest the field experiences this week. We made a goal of 8 in one day because we hadn't had many at the beginning of last week and because of the pray, plan, practice, and do pattern that you taught us, we were able to surpass that goal. We were really excited and great things will continue to happen. Elder Pearce and I are getting along really well.
Thank you so much President! I love you so much! I will write you next week.
Love,
