jan 28th update

hello hello family. this is coming from your missionary way over here in Florida. i wish i could send more pictures but i have to wait a few weeks before i can go back to that library to send them. it is a confusing situation:) well the weather is beautiful up here and the Lord is blessing our efforts. i cant ask for more. we started out with basically no "finding pool" and we now have a good sized one. i feel so blessed and honored to be teaching the people that we have.
we attended two baptist churches on sunday, due to investigators asking us to, and the experience was very worth it. it was neat to see how they believe and to see the differences. i can tell you one thing.. the contrast in the way we felt the spirt at their church and then our church was unbelievable. i loved their services the music was great and the speakers were wonderful but then we got to our church. we had general stake conference so we got to hear truely amazing testimonies from our beloved president Monson and Elder Oaks. there is nothing like the testimonies of apostles of Jesus Christ.the spirit was so strong you could cut it. it was an incredible difference. the baptist churches were fun and uplifting but the testimonies of our apostles ran deep into our hearts and brought tears to our eyes. i love this gosple there is just nothing like it.
we have a new convert that was baptised right before i got out here and she ask us to re teach her everything but this time from the bible. her family does not believe her so she wants to be able to back up what she teaches them with scriptures from the bible. it has been the most rewarding exercise. i have loved researching in the Bible because it is all in there. all the basic doctrine we teach is right there in the bilbe. this church really is jesus christ's church and we truly are set up just the way He set it up when He was here. i Just love it! well i love you all and i will continue to keep you all updated.
love sister conover
Ps please pray for: Bill cheney, alice and Renos, Kevin Miller, Megan Reagale, Dawn Rosh,and simon. all these wonderful prople need a testimony in Joseph smith and the Book of Mormon. and Rodger andrews needs to stop smoking so he can be baptised on the 9 of feb like we have planned.
