Dear Family,
I loved hearing from all of you. It sounds like you will have an awesome Thanksgiving being reunited with family. Please tell everyone that I said I love them and will be there next year. :)
It was awesome hearing about Daniel and his family! I will definitely remember them in my prayers. If I get the chance I will write them a letter.
My Thanksgiving will include the annual ward turkey bowl football game in the early morning, a lunch with the D's whole family (some family from out of town), the D's are a couple in the ward with a huge family and kind hearts, and a dinner at Grandpa A's with the other missionaries and some ward members. So I will definitely be full on that day. :)
My week went really well and we had a new investigator at church who received a baptismal date. Her name is Shelby and she is the first member referral we have received in a long time. She is friends with the R's daughter and we will hopefully be teaching Shelby's family, too! We had an awesome lesson with her at the R's home yesterday and there was a less active family there, too. We taught the restoration and watched the DVD with them. Shelby is the one who brought up wanting to be baptized herself (always a pleasant surprise for missionaries. :) So she is really excited to work towards her baptismal goal for mid-December and hopefully work towards that with here mom and dad, too!
My week was full of lots of meetings but they helped inspire us to do more in our missionary work so it was good.
Today I might get to play saxophone for the first time in a year. (Don't worry, I will still be able to play :) We are going to meet Bro. H. at his college studio (He is a music professor at Bethune Cookman Uviversity.) early for our dinner appointment and see his office/ hopefully play some instruments! I'll let you know what happens.
We did some really fun and rewarding service this week. We helped Jane again with her back yard (which looks much better by the way) and also helped Bishop fix some things in his kitchen. They were both very appreciative!
This past Wednesday we had a meeting with the stake president and discussed the stake's missionary efforts. We brought to the table each of the area's needs and discussed how we could help each area in their efforts.
I have been asking a lot of members to sign my missionary journal before next Tuesday in case I get transferred soon. I'll find out on Saturday if I get transferred or not.
Right now Danny just got here. He has seen you more recently than I have! We going to have a fun P-day today!
Well, I love you all and wish you a happy Thanksgiving!
Love
Elder Miller
