Monday we went on the White Sands Missile Range Base! It was fun! We couldn't take our car on base so we had to run around everywhere to visit our members it was so fun!
One morning one of our members called us and said that someone posted a video of us on the community watch page in Las Cruces. We looked it up and some anonymous person posted a zoom video of us knocking on their door and talking into the ring doorbell. They said "missionaries" were out late and it kind of insinuated that we were a threat or something. So there were about 128 comments and several members talking to us about it. Most of the comments were basically negative. We called our mission president because we didn't know what to do. And he just laughed and said any publicity is good publicity for the Church. Haha. We were still a bit irked by it and when we went out to visit people and street contact, people were rejecting us and I was just in a bad mood. As we kept working things got better and we moved on. The lord has my back and helps me be happy.
We did a lot of service this week and painted, cleaned and moved junk around lol.
Also, our friend Tracy is doing pretty well, he has pretty bad adhd so it's hard for him to listen to lessons, but he is progressing slowly but surely.
Paul and Sophia are doing great! We had a fire lesson with them last night and they now have bestie fellowship and understand why they need to be baptized again by the proper authority. We invited them to pray about the Book of Mormon and Joseph Smith. They are such amazing people!
We helped this crazy lady move. Fun times. Just liked everywhere there are some interesting characters.
Our recent converts are doing good. Our friend Skaii is mad at me currently though because I said her brother's drawing is scary and hers was cute. Sometimes I just don't understand haha.
Transfers are coming up and I've stayed so long here it would be soo hard to leave. I just want to stay at this point. Might as well.
I love you all. We are all living sons and daughters of our living God. This is Christ's restored church. And I KNOW that! We are so blessed to know that and follow Christ in his restored church.
Love, Sister Crofts
