Dear Family and Friends,

Sorry it has been awhile. I am doing well and learning alot. This week has been amazing.

Yesterday my companion and I fasted for a young girl named Tatiana. Tatiana(she is 16) is a friend of a member in our ward. She loves the church and what it teaches. She is a very smart girl. She wants to be baptized but her parents weren't too happy about it when she first asked if she could learn. We were finally able to teach her the first lesson over a week ago. She said she probably couldn't meet again because her parents wouldn't let her. As we were fasting yesterday though, her member friend came up to us and told us that her parents are now fine with her learning about the church. We are so excited.

We had a wonderful Halloween party for our ward this week. We had a young family, Mom (Kasey), Dad (Trey) and 2 year old (Ashley) there that are not members. We tracted into them the first day I was in this area and we have been trying, to get them to come around to us teaching them, since then. They loved the party and the members that they met. They also took a tour of the church. The whole time around the church Trey, the husband, kept saying "I like this about my church, but....." He kept comparing his church to ours with ours being favored. I pray with all my heart that we can see this little family join the church. It would be a miracle.

Halloween was great! I dressed up, for our ward party, as a cow and my companion was a cowgirl. It was really cute. I will try and send pictures as soon as possible. I felt funny in my costume but everyone loved it. On Halloween night we played games with a really neat family in the ward.

I love you all!!!!!!

Love
Sister Comte
