Lights Out!

Dear, Family
 This week has been a bit hard our investigator John who was on date dropped us. We had a lesson with in set for Tuesday morning and we went by to have our lesson, and when we had showed up him and his wife were in the middle of a fight and boy the contention was just super thick you could have cut It with a knife and he was complaining to us about how he's been trying to meet up with the Branch President for 2 1/2 weeks wanting to discuss something's with him before he was baptised. And we told the branch president 3 times and the home teachers told president that John and his wife wanted to meet with him as well. But I don't know why or why not they weren't able to meet. But John just said can we just reschedule for another time we said of course we will just text when a good time might be. But later that day we got a text saying that he didn't want to be baptised, didn't want us coming around, or anyone from the church. Broke my heart to read that. But we also had sports night at the chapel on Friday and we had an awesome turn out there were about 40 people that came and there were 7-8 non members that showed up which was awesome. but at like 8:20 pm so about 20 minute before we end their was a flare up. The 2nd counsellor in the Branch presidency Just turned the lights of to the court yard jumped in the car and left. So he decided that he would just end the sports night we didn't even close properly with a prayer or anything but yeah it didn't leave a good impression in the mind of many of the member and non members that were present. It was just a bitter funny experience. But on the Up side our investigator Lina is going to be baptised on the 12 of March it was originally for the 27th of this month but she said that her mom wasn't going to be able to make is and we were like um... we can move it lets make sure your mom is there. but so just a temporary set back which works for the best because that week we have district conference and the confirmation would have to be set back a week so up and up it works. but that my week! I know that this church is true and if you want to see blessing and miracle come I know we have to have faith and repent then the lord will help us. For you Receive no witness until after the trail of your faith. (Ether 12:12)
