October 5, 2010

Family,
It's been a great week for us here in Cocoa. Even through all of the hardship and trial we are pushing on with great hope and faith. We were very blessed to here from prophet seers and revelators in our days, and we really look forward to applying the principles we learned from these humble servants of god.
Well Good news Theresa Beaugh is gettting baptized this saturday. She's very excited in fact the last time we went over to her house we got on Mormon.org to find where the closest meeting house is to her mother. Well she's been talking a lot to her mother and her mother now wants to join the church and also her neice. She is such a great missionary, she has already invited several of her non member friends to come to her baptism. We have seriously been blessed to know this wonderful woman and i know god is going to work miracles through her. Just the other day we were eating inbetween sessions of conference when i saw her just watching people and when she saw a lady in need of help getting a drink she got up so quick and went to help her. She really does have a gift for helping those in need and she's going to be a great asset to the lord's kingdom.
This week we also took Wanda on a temple tour and it went very well. She's so excited for her baptism and can't wait to get to go into the temple and do the ordinances for her family who have passed on. It really is great to know her she has such a great spirit and i know she is a choice daughter of god, we really have been blessed just to know her god is good.
We also had a great time this week preparing pulled pork for the barbeque before priesthood session. Brother Bullock a non member was the one preparing it and he let us help him. We got to dry rub the pork and get it all ready to be smoked the next day. Well as brother bullock was driving us home he told us he was about to tell his wife he was going to take the lessons but he just didn't get a chance. He also told us he's a little worried about how it is going to effect his parents. He really does have a lot of love for them and wants them to know everything is still going to be the same between them. We committed him to pray that night at 1030 and we at this same time were down on our knees praying for him to recieve answers. WEll we haven't quite had the chance to follow up with him yet but I know that is went well i can't wait to hear what he has to say.
Life is great out here i love my mission i love life God is great and today is the greatest time for faith the power of god is at it's best. If we will turn to him he will work miracles in our lives. I love you all and thankyou for all of your support may god bless you all.
Love Elder Judd
