Hey Everyone,

Another week came and gone. It goes fast until Thursday and then it feels like an entire month the rest of the week. But now it is finally a new week. We had a good week. We did a ton of finding because a lot of our progressing investigators are being baptized and we need more new and better people!! We had stake conference yesterday and it was a huge hit. There were so many people there and we had some investigators come as well. There are two that are on date and three that are not. So that experience was definitely needed for both of them!! We had a good lesson with Amanda and her family, the lady that owns the crush. She said to us that they read the Book of Mormon together and that every time that they open the book and just read a chapter, it speaks about baptism and repentance. So they said that it may be a sign that God is answering their prayers about whether or not to be baptized. So that was something that we have been waiting for. It has been some time now that we have been teaching them and it just keeps getting better and better each time that we go and visit with them!!!

We have been finding this past week and the members are also working and will soon have some referrals for us hopefully!! It goes so much easier when we get referrals, because they actually progress and want to hear the truth. We are teaching that one guy that I talked about last week now and is on date for the 8th of June. That will be 5 being baptized on that day, so the work is going well!!!!

We painted a less actives home this past week and we are going this week to finish up! We are also painting her sisters home as well this week. We have more service to do at the crush where we did last time and that will definitely help Amanda and her family!!!! We are also washing a members car this week as well, so we are loaded and busy with service. No complaints, because it helps the time just go like that!!! My companion and I are really getting along and just laugh with each other about the dumbest things. Other than that not much else this week so have a good one and know that the Lord loves you!!
