Spring Is HERE...Kinda

Hello All!
I hope that you are all doing great this fine SPRING morning! 
Here is What's New over here! 
Miracle Of the week- 
We had 2! 
L- we were able to meet with one of our investigators in 2nd ward and she set a baptismal date for May 3rd! We are so excited for her! We talked to her about baptism and about the Gift of the Holy Ghost and she was all, "That is what I need in my life, that spirit with me always." Yeah it is!!! 
W- W is M, our Recent Convert in 2nd ward's, nephew.  He has 3 kids and we are now teaching them! That isn't the best part. The best part is that we have been fasting and praying for investigators in 1st Ward and guess where they just moved?? 1st Ward! Woooooohooo! 
Aha Moment-
We had Stake Conference this weekend, which was awesome by the way, and the stake is concentrating on Jacob 1:7 which says, "That we might persuade them to come unto Christ, and partake of the goodness of God, that they might enter into his rest". We are doing this by:
 1) having every member over 12 strive to learn how to get and take a family name to the temple
2) ask and encourage all members over the age of 16 to go out with the full time missionaries at least every other month
3) Plant the gospel principles in the hearts of our families by fully utilizing gospel programs.
One of the stake presidency members was talking about the 1st goal and he said something that really hit me. He said, "To do family history, like anything else in life, when you first start you don't need perfection, you need practice." 
Ahahahaha Moment-
Friday was the first day of spring!!!!! It snowed 2 inches!!!! New England is so weird ahaha!! Now it is sunny and like 29 degrees... #spring
This is a really short email... But I just have a lot of nonsense on my mind haha.
You are all so loved!
I love this work!
God is great!
Be good!
Love, 
Sister Alexander
