Kacey

Kacey was introduced to the gospel by a member because she was the first grade teacher of the member's daughter. I'm not exactly sure how the conversation was brought up, but the member invited her to read the Book of Mormon and gave her a copy. The member then gave us her phone number.

So for about three weeks we would call Kacey and text her and answer her questions and keep her excited about the Gospel and the Book of Mormon. And, for three weeks she would tell us that she would love to meet up and take the lessons, but that her husband wasn't ready yet. She mentioned that her husband was reading the Book of Mormon and studying online and stuff, but wasn't convinced yet. 

Yesterday, Kacey came to church and introduced herself to us as Kacey _____. We were shocked and Elder Twitchell asked, "You mean, the real life Kacey, the girl we've been texting for the past few weeks?" She said yep. She said that she was done waiting for her husband and was ready to take the lessons. After asking a few followup questions we discovered that she had been doing her research, and had even chatted with missionaries on mormon.org. She mentioned that she joined a Facebook group called Mormon women whose husbands don't go to church. We're not sure what we're going to teach her because she already knows everything there is to know about our faith. She's ready to join. It's incredible.

Many of the other people we've been teaching are progressing rapidly as well. We are very excited for many of the future converts we are teaching. 

Hurrah for Israel!
Elder Stephen Watts
