March 3rd Letter
Yup, March is here! 100 baptisms will happen. We're all so excited for it. Lately I've been really worried about getting on in march, because we don't really have anyone to teach. But the Lord helps us out. At FHE this week we had a potluck, and afterwards they had a lesson about the importance of reverence during sacrament hymns, and to demonstrate the Spirit that could be felt as we are reverent and all singing. It was pretty cool, because it was way spiritual. A girl in our ward had brought a non-member friend there, and we asked him afterwards if he would like to meet with us and learn a little bit more about the church. We have an appointment with him tomorrow so we're really excited about that. we had a good week of going around and teaching people, and a really awesome experience in challenging 4 people to find someone for us to teach in 7 days. One girl was nervous about it, but the other 3 were awesome and so excited for it. One girl almost did a little happy dance in her chair she was so excited. One guy was nodding his head the entire time and thought we said 3 days instead of 7. It was great to see these people that we identified with the Spirit, following PMG, accept the challenge. Life is good here. It's warm, (highs of +10 for the whole next week!) However, it was pretty depressing however to hear about the US losing to Canada in the gold medal hockey game. But, also really cool because we got to be hear. They set a record for most golds won by a host country or something like that. I was just really happy to see that the States won in the 4man bobsled. I STILL want to be a bobsledder. how cool would that be? The Canadians were REALLY excited to win the game as well. pretty much RIGHT as is ended we went to an appointment at a members house. We were already dreading it because we were at this persons house the night that we beat them in the preliminaries. She answered the door and yelled, "My country beat your country in hockey! WOOOOOOOO!!!!' it was pretty funny, and it was cool to be hear for the olympics. Even though they were a whole province away. Well, bday is coming up and that's pretty crazy. I"m excited for it, hopefully it'll be better than my last one in the mish. I love you all and miss you! talk to you next week! Elder Crippen
