Scotcharoos!



We had a pretty good week this week. I got to know the area a little better and we are getting the members to work with us which is awesome!!! Things are going good here, it's a great time to be a missionary =)

On Tuesday we were able to go do visits with our ward mission leader, he's getting ready to go on a mission to Canada. Things went well, we found some new investigators and we had various lessons and recieved a couple references =) On Wednesday we had our district meeting and then had an average day. On Thursday we did divisions with the zone leaders. I went with Elder Petlacalco, one of my former district leaders =) We contacted a bus (one went in front and shared a message with everyone on the bus then we passed by handing out pamphlets =) And we went and had a lesson with a less active family. One of the people is really struggling with depression and when we went we both thought to share the same story that is in Mosiah 24. We shared the story and asked the sister at the end to say the prayer. In the prayer she thanked God for answering a pray of her's that morning, it was a really neat experience for us. Then later we went looking for new investigators when we both stopped and looked in a house and we could see that it was a family. We went and talked to them and they let us enter and were super interested, that was really cool too =) On Friday both me and my comp contacted buses, that was interesting =) And that night we went to a member's house, Ivon, and my comp made pupusas. And yesterday we had a good church attendance, it went up by 20 since last sunday =) And President Wilkinson went to the church to do our interviews which went very well =) And then we did divisions almost all day with a couple members. The members here are great =) So yeah, everything here is going well, I don't have any complaints =) We should also be having a baptism this week, his name is Favio. He's pretty awesome and so we're pretty excited.

That's about all for this week, we'll see ya next week, later!
