Hey Family!
That is SWEET that Dad qualified for the Boston Marathon! And that story is awesome! I wish I could come and watch it in Boston! You'll have to send me videos and pictures though! Priesthood blessings are awesome!! I don't know how you can not believe in God after witnessing a priesthood blessing or being a part of one! They're sweet!
Speaking of priesthood blessings, Elder Burton and I went on exchanges twice this week and on one of the exchanges Elder Burton and another Elder in the zone found a girl named Alexx (Yes two x's... some parents haha) she was outside chasing her dog down the street and they asked her if she needed any help getting him back in the house, and she said no but they ended up helping her anyways and asked her about the Gospel and stuff. She started asking some questions about what we believe and she asked what we do for sick people in the church. They explained priesthood blessings and how it's the same authority that Christ used to heal the sick and she thought that was pretty cool so we went back yesterday and taught her a little bit more about it and gave her a priesthood blessing. It was a great blessing and after it we asked her how she felt and what she thought! She liked it and she asked some more questions, and we ended up teaching most of the points of the Restoration and the Book of Mormon and stuff! She loved it and we set a return appointment for this Friday to go back and teach her more! Amy should be having her baptism this week but she called us this Sunday and she said she hasn't talked to her husband Shawn yet and she wants our opinion on what she should do. We are meeting with her tomorrow so keep her in your prayers and hopefully we will be able to help her get an answer as to what she should do! We biked a ton this week which was sweet and we found a lot of potential investigators so hopefully they will turn into new investigators soon!
Anyways, Love and miss you all and hope everything is well at home! Missionary work is amazing and I love it! I'll talk to you all later!
Love Elder Summerhays
