Yesterday I discovered a new delight called chicken apple sausage. The joys of sausage never cease!
Miracle for this week: a recent convert’s fiancée suddenly decided he was ready to meet with us (he had been strongly opposed to it the entire time they were dating), and he’s having some really neat experiences with reading the Book of Mormon. Truly miraculous. I love being able to witness these miracles!
Miracle number two: we have an investigator praying about being baptized in March. She’s close. Really close. She’s been taking the lessons for about two years. So excited for her!
Miracle number three: we had FOUR investigators at church yesterday. I haven't had that many for months. Yay!!!!!!!
Last Monday/Tuesday we did an exchange with the Torrington sisters, first meeting them at Yale on Monday and spending some time to walk around campus. It was rainy so there was no guided tour, and we only had a couple of hours, but it was still a lot of fun. I loved seeing Yale again. I’ll try to upload the pictures now…no promises with these finicky library computers. Oh, and I took some pictures of Torrington too while I was there. It’s a beautiful area. The area itself consists of about 13 towns (huge!) in northwestern Connecticut.
Explanation of pictures (hopefully they came in the right order):
1. The famous Munson Real Estate building. The one people always talk about when they first hear my name. There are lots of locations, this is just one of the many, on Reef Road in Fairfield.
2. Munson chocolate!! The other thing people always associate the name with. The writing on the wrapper is too small to see, but it’s a chocolate Santa that says, “Munson Chocolates, Bolton, CT.”
3. Bridgeport district picture. The flash wasn’t working for some reason, but at least you can see the pretty snow in the background.
4. With Sister Darrington in Torrington.
5. Supposedly the most frequently photographed church in Connecticut. This is in Litchfield.
6. A monument to Harriet Beecher Stowe in Litchfield, not too far from her birthplace.
My new email is kaelynn.monson@myldsmail.net.
7. A barn in Litchfield. Ain’t it quaint?
8. The Yale Musical Instruments Collection building. The building wasn’t even open! Lame.
9. Wishful thinking. J
10. The entrance to the gym. Logo look familiar to anyone? J I thought so.
11. A REAL original Gutenberg Bible. Last time it was being cleaned or something so we couldn’t see the real thing.
12. Pretty stained glass window!
13. Sister Darrington and Sister Murray on the steps of the library.
Well, hope you all are enjoying the nice dry Western winter. Love you!
