June 25, 2013

I had this really weird dream last night.

I dreamed that I was with my roommate from the MTC and we were in a military boot-camp.  We were standing at attention and I sassed the sergeant.  We were then told that we would lead the squad in conditioning drills at some point in time (but I never got to that point).  Then we went onto a survival course.  We were given a map and a compass, and dropped off with a backpack for both of us with clothes and a tarp to create a shelter, but not told where we were in relation to the map and we were told to get to a certain point.  We started running towards the direction that we thought we should be going and we ended up in the middle of a fire fight without any guns.  We wrestled a gun away from one of our attackers, and kept going.  Then I woke up.  It was really weird.  I don't know if it is supposed to mean anything or if it was just a strange dream.

But this next week we hope to be able to set baptismal dates with about 4 of our investigators.  I am super excited.  We started working with an excommunicated member and her husband last week.  She had never stopped coming to church or anything which was really cool, plus she really really really wants to get rebaptized.  We were given the okay from Bishop V. to start teaching her two weeks ago, and we are hoping to set a baptismal date with her for the 13th of July.  Hopefully she has been reading and praying with her husband M., who is a non-member, so that he is also gaining and strengthening his testimony of the church.  

Also, this last week, one of our investigators asked us to come over and give a blessing to his kids while they were away visiting family.  So that was super cool.  We haven't been able to meet with him for about a month and a half, so we were able to also talk with him and set up a time that we can come over and teach them.

Love you,
Elder Peterson
