I feel as though I have stepped into the fires of Mordor!

27 June 2016

Well I am so sorry I have been so sucky at writing in my journal this transfer, and I have been forgetting things. I will do my best.

It is heating up here! I thought it was hot before! HA! 
I feel sweaty and gross all the time; it is just great! 

This week Sister Williams and I have been focusing on finding new people to teach because...well... all of our investigators have lives. Or they have disappeared.... That happens.
We got out and tracted!

Our efforts were rewarded! Yay! 
We met a nice couple named Marcus and Rochelle. They were very sweet and we taught them the Restoration and they accepted a Book of Mormon! They seemed excited to have it and read it too. I just love it when that happens! 
Sadly we haven't seen them in awhile because they are vacationing in Kansas City, but they should be coming home soon! I hope that they will still want to learn because it's a family!

Okay, so even though the work with investigators have been quite slow this week, the work with recent convert/less actives have rocked! 
First of all, one of our less active recent converts came to church first the first time since I have been here yesterday. We visited her on Tuesday and she said that she would come to church and SHE DID! 
Second, this is truly a miracle! Joel gave a talk in Sacrament meeting!! It was really hard for him since he has COPD and emphysema, and it is really hard for him to breathe. It was so awesome to see him get up and give his talk! It really brought the Spirit! We are trying to get him to the temple so this was a big step for him! His strength is really coming back and it has been a real treat to see it first hand!

We had Zone Conference on Thursday, it was a really good one. Here is some notes from it. 

I love y'all and thank you for all your support and love!

Please send letters; I want to know how y'all are doing!
