We are HAPPY!

Hello Every One! So I have just realized that my Emails have not reflected my real attitude and feelings about the Work RIGHT NOW! We Are Seeing Miracles and we are HAPPY not sad!

We had a GREAT week this last week we had a VERY rare treat on Wednesday. We had a surprise exchange with Elder Mcginn one of the Assistant to the President they usually only go out with Zone Leaders... they were in the area and wanted to go out and work so we stacked the night with the best of everything in our area, our investigators that needed him the most, our best member family for dinner, and so much more, it was wonderful... all on paper. They had to stop in Iowa City and grab some stuff from some other missionaries and ended up being 30 minutes late... so we made the best of the occasion and simplified and intensified and then slashed one APT and we still were 20 minutes late for an appointment with a less active and our Ward Mission Leader (who is amazing if i haven't mentioned that before) at 8:00. Hey at least that appointment was short to the point and POWERFUL just like all the lessons that night! It was GREAT! And at the end of it Elder Mcginn and our WML had a conversation about getting a "zebra" companionship in our ward (one Spanish speaking and one English speaking) That made me SUPER Excited!
Je**ie is doing good. He came to church for the second week in a row but we are scared that he is relying to much on that spiritual bomb shell and not so much on the "little" things like reading and praying, and we are seeing the effects from it in our teaching him.
De**a is doing GREAT! The only thing that is holding her back from getting Baptized is she is scared that if she completely gives up smoking she will gain weight rapidly. :( we are trying REALLY hard with her and it will happen that is for SURE.  She WILL be BAPTIZED that WE know for sure!
The Ward is super involved right now we just had a new "Member On Call" list made up it is "version 3.0" as our ward mission leader put it! It has all the members that are available to come out with us and times that they are usually available! it has ALREADY come in handy and that is amazing! (this is just one of the reasons that he is amazing! There are so many more but this is a good example)
Well this is it for the Week,
Elder Daniel Keeley

  1. 'Member when you had a missionary at your house, and you asked him if he was happy? I do. Glad you are, too, Elder.
