Dear Family,
Well its just a great day to be a missionary! Other than me being sick for the last week with random things, its been a great week of teaching all of those investigators that we do have and I'm super excited to teach them some more as the time goes by. Its super amazing to see their conversion. I can tell you if that doesn't make you cry nothing will! I was having an appointment with Logan and we taught her the plan of salvation she was all smiling then she started crying when we talked about the atonement and we explained it to her that Jesus Christ has felt all of our weakness, struggles, sins and everything. He took it upon himself to loose the bands of death, He loves us soo much that he died for US. She then told us that she has been praying and reading a bunch in the Book of Mormon and she said she got her answer that no doubt in her mind that this church is true! That Joesph Smith was a prophet and that the gospel is restored to the earth, I busted out crying. Man I haven't seen this a lot on my mission, but seeing someones conversion from the beginning is a precious thing. I love her so much and she is getting baptized December 6!
Other news haha we have been teaching another guy and he is a black preacher! Man he is a great guy and he knows his bible but we invited him to church last week he went to stake conference and it was great other than he took a scripture out of context. The scripture that says the sheep I have that are not of this fold those too will inherit the Kingdom of God. He took it as we were claiming to be that other fold haha he is crazy. He started using his loud yelling preacher voice in the appointment we were having with him and I said I'm going to leave if you don't lower your voice and show me some respect cause I'm talking all calm. Man he finally calmed down and he and us discussed it and he understands it now which is great and he is watching conference talks on lds.org while were not able to be with him!
I love you and thank you for the Halloween box it was great my companion loved it and I love being in Zion!
Love

Elder Davies
