Week 54

To all those that are under the words of this e-mail...

Time is flying by WAY too fast and it is scary to think about it but things here are going amazing. In our companionship we have 8 baptismal dates and as a mission we have 35 of those and more are coming this week. Not all of them are progressing very well but it is crazy to think that we have 23% of them just in our area. That is a big responsibility on our shoulders and are working our hardest to make sure these people will feel the Spirit and make the decision of their life.

We are teaching a young lady who is about 23 and she is awesome. She just started going back to church and then some reason our Zone Leaders knocked on her door and taught her and passed her to us because she speaks english!!!! and thats what we cover so we were excited for that. But she has a baptismal goal of the 6 Sept a Sunday. We have a couple of families that we working hard with so please pray for us and the mission. This is the most we have ever had at one time in the mission and we are all way excited. My greenie is doing good and we are having some funny experiences b/c he is super shy and very soft spoken and that doesnt go very well here in California. Thank you so much for everything you all do.

Love ya!
