The Take Over

(e-mail from 12/7/10)

Hey everyone hows it going? Staying warm? It has been snowing here soooooo much! we have a lot of lake effect snow! it snowed all night and is still snowing right now! well a lot of exciting things happened this week! for one we had a baptism yay! it was so exciting and so good, it was kinda crazy though. we didn't know if it was going to happen till hours before the baptism. we showed up and Anyias ( the girl getting baptized) in the morning to find out that she was sick, like really sick, like she has spent the whole night puking and was still not feeling so hot. we asked her if she wanted to reschedule but she said no, she would be there. I was impressed she really wanted to be baptized and nothing was going to stop her. but then later that day we ran into another problem, it had started to snow and people were calling us and asking if we were going to cancel because of the weather. but it started to clear up a few hours before and the baptism went great! there was a big turn out and she felt alright not the best but she made it. it was such a good baptism. we also set two of our other investigators with a date this week and another one it committed to be baptized but is still decided on a date. we are hoping to have 4 with a date by then end of this week. this week we also got transfer calls. I am staying in Watertown and my companion is being transferred. I am a little nervous about taking over the area and showing another sister around. I don't feel like I know it well enough but I know that this is what the Lord wants and I feel good about it. I am looking forward to the coming transfer and what it has to bring! thanks so much to all of you and all of your support! I hope you have a great week. -Sister Cox
