A Nice Surprise!

Victor is getting baptized! Elder Hoggan knew it would happen one day and he couldn't contain his excitement regarding this great news!

A new change for "Hastening the Work" is that President Miles has given the missionaries one hour of internet access during the week. People are more willing to give out their email addresses than phone numbers.

Goals have been set for baptisms before the end of the year. This will require more obedience, more faith, more hope, and more miracles. Elder Hoggan and the others are optimistic and excited for the weeks ahead.

A less active family, the Familie Dos Santos, are meeting with Elder Hoggan and Elder Young. Now is their time to shine! The husband is a member, the not his wife. They have a lot of potential.

A cool miracle occurred when a gentlemen was given a Book of Mormon and gave his phone number to the Elders. This man didn't seem to have any interest upon the first visit, but more so on the second. Elder Hoggan and Elder Young realized that people are not always as they seem. Others can't be judged before getting to know them.

Elder Hoggan's funny story for the week was getting hit by a car. His sweet mother did have a heart attack and fell to her knees in gratitude. He was bumped into on a busy street and flopped on the front of the car. Got up and kept walking. Elder Hoggan says it was a good experience. Oh, my! He's got many, many angels with him constantly.

Goose was a delicious meal for Elder Hoggan! A kind member prepared the meal and filled up the missionaries. What a nice sister to give them such a feast they will never forget.
