We have had a good week!

Family and Friends!

We have had a good week! We went to Parchal this week to try to find some new investigators and we had a lot of success! A lot of people over there talked to the missionaries like 2 or 3 years ago and they were very willing to hear our message again! So we have plans to start working more over there! 

This week we met Maria de Fatima, she is a cute old lady who loves Jesus! We taught her about the restoration of the church and she accepted the invitation to be baptized when she knows these things are true. She came to church on Sunday and had a very good experience there, we hope to give her a baptismal date this week!

Americo and Mauna: We are still working with this incredible family! They are progressing slower than most, but they're progressing at the pace they need. They recognize that we are here to help them have a happier family and teach them about the restored gospel of Jesus Christ, but they are afraid to make some changes to their traditional Catholic beliefs. They are an incredible family and I really hope I can keep working with them :)

We started teaching a man named Fred yesterday, he rocks! We had contacted him in the road and invited him to church, but he showed up after church was over because he was confused about the location. So we taught him a quick lesson in the church and it was awesome! Some people you just know are prepared to receive the gospel. He is one of those people, and I hope he accepts it. 

This week I have really learned that obedience and hard work bring miracles. Sometimes we don't always see the results of our hard work, but the work of the Lord is great and He promises us that when we work hard, miracles happen. I love the mission and I'm so happy to be here!

I love you all! Have a great week!
