This week, we got a text that Brian was in the Hospital and had asked for a blessing. We got him a blessing. And then he asked his ex step son who is a gay priest to baptize him. It was actually really cool. When we first met Brian, he didn't really believe in God but now he does and has the desire to be baptized. Unfortunately, we haven't taught him about proper authority yet. It was also cool because his wife Beverly thought that he wasn't saved and was scared he would die before he had that opportunity. Then Brian asked if I could sing at his funeral. He's still hanging on, but he probably won't last much longer.
The only thing other thing I can think of that is worth mentioning is James. He is the person who asked us if he could be baptized. Our stake does a thing for the youth called Mini missions. James went to mini missions and during one of the devotionals, they were asking for participation by asking what the book of Mormon meant to them. James raised his hand and said that to him, "the Book of Mormon means discipline because the things he's learned from it have kept him out of trouble." Sister Davis and I were so happy! He also came to church on Sunday and he said he loved it.
Other than that, I can't think of anything else to mention. Maybe next week's will be a little more exciting.
I love you!
