A February Full of Miracles

Happy Groundhogs Day to all of you. It came and went here and I completely forgot Feb. 2 was a holiday. 
It is good to hear from all of you. Sounds like Stake Conference was really good. It should be a lot of fun to be in a smaller stake.
This past week has been awesome. As a three-some we have been working hard to teach thought by thought so that no one person takes over the lesson and we all have a chance to say whatever the spirit prompts. It has been working well and the Lord has really been leading us to prepared people. There have been a few times this week where we have talked to people on our way to a lesson and although we didn't have a member with us, we felt prompted to teach them right then and there. I've felt the spirit witness to them that what we have taught is true and we have several people who are working towards getting baptized by the end of this month. 
Our baptism this past Saturday for Erleen didn't happen. She is a 12-year-old and her whole family is baptised. She told our district leader that she hasn't repented yet because she still hates some classmates at school. I guess at least she's honest with herself. :) She's looking to be baptized this next week. 
One of the boys we taught this week (Sydney) said he had been sitting in many lessons in the past and he knew that our church was true for a long time. When we invited him to be baptized he pretty much told us that he thought we would never ask and he happily accepted a date for the 22nd of this month. 
I had a request to expound more on the story of the lady with 13 babies inside of her so here it goes. She said she got really sick until she couldn't walk any more and her belly got really really big. She finally went to the hospital. They did an ultra-sound and the doctor said she would die if they didn't take out her uterus. So, they took it out and inside were 13 babies. She said some looked like baby lizards (those were supposedly girls), some looked like the mangrove fish (the boys) and the others looked like turtles without their shells (those ones were the supposed demons inside). There you have it Deborah. See if you can figure that one out.
Love you all very very much,
Sister Beutler
