Returning

Today we had 6 Brethren at church that we've been working with. 2 are investigators and will be baptized on Feb.9,  3 have been there 4 weeks in a row and so are now considered returning and 1 is a young  who's been coming steadily for awhile and is working diligently on quitting smoking so we were excited to see them all there. One of them has been less active for over 20 years and  would hardly talk to Bro. Base and me when we first met him but it's been absolutely amazing to see his whole countenance change in just a few weeks as the missionaries have taught him and he's been coming to church.The gospel of  Jesus Christ changes lives! Also in the Carissa Branch we had 3 investigators and  3 returning members. We can all take part in the Rescue; where ever we live. We don't have to be  on a full time mission. President Hinckley said "We are here to assist our Father in His work and His glory, 'to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man' Your obligation is as serious in your sphere of responsibility as is my obligation in my sphere" Hope we are all helping in this great missionary effort . You will find great joy as you do; we can promise you that!
