Hey Everyone!

This has been yet another awesome week! We've been putting extra focus on the Book of Mormon this month as a mission, trying to really flood the earth with the book. So, weve been going around and using it to teach people right when we meet them! It actually has been a blast! For example, last night Elder Wilson and I only had 1 hour of time left to proselyte, we had been in church for 7 and a half hours (English ward, Spanish branch, then a baptism) and then with driving time and dinner at a members house, we decided to use the time we had left to go and share the Book of Mormon! So, we walked for a while and ended up walking up to this house where a group of Hispanic people where outside having dinner. We just started chatting with them and ended up having a great discussion about the book of Mormon! We only had 3 Spanish ones on us but we gave each family one in Spanish and some of the kids and those that could speak English their own English copies. This family said they would love if we came back and talked to them more again. It was awesome! It just goes to show that if we are doing what we are supposed to, the lord will bless us. now, we just pray that the books of Mormon we give away will be read! that they can help change peoples lives!

That was just one of many amazing experiences this week though! Keven and Stacy are doing awesome, they have accepted and are living all of the commandments that weve talked about so far and are really excited for their baptism! They are reading their scriptures and we are very excited for the 27th!

Nancy is doing great as well. weve been able to teach her a couple times this week and she came to church and to the baptism of a couple in the Spanish branch this sunday! It was awesome! I know she felt the spirit strongly, hopefully she will receive her own answer that the BOM is true soon!

We also met this awesome family this week! Its a single mom named Rhonda, she has a daughter named Josie that lives with her and then another younger daughter who is severly handicapped. We met her while out contacting and sharing the BOM. It was really funny because when we first met her she was like "no, I don't wanna hear anything from the BOM" but then we shared a scripture from the bible and she kind of opened up, followed by a scripture in the BOM about Christ. She really opened up to us and toled us all sorts of craziness that's going on in her life. We shared a few scriptures to help and then a few days later we shared the restoration, she loved it! she wants to learn more as well.

So, this week has been awesome! We just got called and we need to go give a blessing so we must be off, I love you all so much! Have a great week!
