Week 15

So this week has been going okay. Every week we get about ten new investigators but more often than not they don't want to talk to us when we return. We have received a few new ones that do have a lot of potential though. On the sadder hand we lost some of our most progressed investigators. One need his parents approve to be baptized(he did get it) the other just hasn't been coming to church for the past 2 weeks and she is never home. So we don't know what will happen with them but we hope for the best.

We don't have any baptism planned for at least 2 weeks and with our luck right now though will probably fall through. Yet, i should be optimistic so who knows. All is possible. Other than that the work is usually pretty good here. The people are happy to talk to you and invite you back....and then not be there when you try again. Anyway its all cool.

The story of the week is the opportunity i had to play soccer with the ward. We played today and I made an awesome goal. I happened to brake away from the defenders and as the goalie was about to grab the ball I slid and kicked it in. Pretty sweet if you ask me. 

The other story I would like to share is about an investigator we have. We received an email last week about this person we needed to visit. I was tired and my companion unfortunately had to prod me a little to get me to continue. (not much) We came across the house and she asked us to come in. She listen to our message and talked about how she was going through some physical illness that was making her really sad. (might have actually been depression she was facing but she really didn't talk much about it). She then said as we finished that she had been crying when we had arrive, but because of our message she now felt happy and able to continue with here day. This experience was special to me because i shared at least half of our lesson and she understood me. So it was a great experience.

Anyway I am glad that you are all doing well. I happy that the babies are strong and healthy and are usually good to you guys. I wish I could write more to you guys but my time is very short and we have an appointment. So I love you all and please keep writing even though I can't respond to each of your emails.
