Email Nov 5 2012

To Mom:  It always seems like they spring those meetings on you at the last second! That’s happened to me more than enough out here haha That sounds like a lot of fun to have Leesa over. I remember her from mannny years ago haha. Not really a ton happened this week. We had a meeting ALL day Thursday that we as zone leaders now have to train our zone on tomorrow. It should go pretty well though! Things have definitely been going a lot better! We are getting more work done (not as much as I’d like sometimes but enough) and I love our zone members and being in the San B zone. This next week is hopefully going to be really good! I’m glad to hear that Becky and Joey are doing okay. We had a lot of people talk about the Hurricane over here and it was a good conversation starter to say "oh yeah I have a sister over there!" All in all our week wasn’t terrible but there is definitely lots of room for improvement! I love you tons and hope your meetings go great!

To Dad:  Well this week was really great actually! We got 2 new investigators. One was a kid named D. He is friends with that member I was talking about last week annndd it went okay. He wasn’t as super solid as I thought he was. He doesn’t believe that there is just one true church. We are going to work with him still though for at least another couple weeks. We also taught this girl in our wards roommate! It was on Halloween and we didn’t have a ton of time so we did a lesson on faith and did what we call the faith rocket where you light a tea bag on fire on their hand and right before it gets to their hand it floats off and doesn’t burn them. It’s pretty neat. We asked her and her roommate what they could do to strengthen their faith and A (the investigator) said go to church. So we invited her to church and she said she would come the next week because she had to work. Then K (The member) said she could do better at reading the scriptures and A was like "I’ll read them with you!" It surprised us all! She also said she would pray! It was pretty neat because we weren’t sure how solid she was going to be but it’s looking good! Also W is progressing very well! We moved her baptism date back to the 24th and she came to church again and likes to meet with us and just eats up what we teach! It’s super neat to see! Other than that there wasn’t a whole lot this week.. We did absolutely nothing on Halloween night. It was really lame. We went tracting a couple times with other Elders but not much happened. So a couple really good things and then just kinda a busy week with Zone leader stuff... but oh well! I love you tons and hope you have a great week!
