Hermana Bloxham - Wow, what a week!

First things first! Brenda has a baptismal date!!! For November 15th! On Thursday we were doing weekly planning and we decided to pray to see what date we would invite her to be baptized on. So, we wrote down all of the Saturdays for the next month or so. Then Sister Livingston started to pray and in my mind I saw a calendar in my head with a day in red. And I thought of the 15th. So after the prayer I looked at the calendar on our phone and the 15th was right where I had seen in my mind. And it was a Friday and not a Saturday which is different. So we were just like, ok so the 15th it is! haha. Then we went over to teach Brenda that night and asked her the baptismal interview questions without her knowing what they were and she answered yes to all of them! And so we asked her to be baptized on November 15th and she said yes!!! She said, "usually I would fight this and say I don't feel ready but I actually feel really good about this!" It's so amazing!! The Lord really knows what He is doing and tells us through the Spirit and we just have to be ready to hear it!

Yesterday we had a zone conference and learned that we are 1 of 25 missions who are going online! We are officially authorized to use Facebook and Skype to teach lessons, find new investigators, and to confirm and share the gospel! It's so crazy!! So we are probably going to start using it tonight and getting it all ready to be used for missionary work so it'll be soon!!! I'm excited!

I love you all so much and I am so thankful for all of your prayers because I know that I and all of the other missionaries in the world couldn't do this work without all of your support so thank you!

Love, Hermana Bloxham :)
