The Work Is Picking Up


 Hi! 


Out tracting
Sorry it's taken me such a long time to write today, they were cleaning the carpet at the office today so we had to wait for them to finish before we could come in to do our e-mail.
 
 The work has been picking up this week so that always excites me. We took Andrew out to a few appointments this week and it's just so cool to see how much his testimony has grown. I know I keep telling you about it but it's crazy how fast he's growing. He met with the bishop this week they were meeting so Andrew could receive the Aaronic Priesthood and everything went well so he should be receiving the priesthood either this Sunday or next Sunday. It's so exciting. He's also given out 5 copies of the Book of Mormon this week! It's crazy to see the impact that he is having on the world, I am so blessed and happy that I had to chance to teach him.
 
 Oh so this week too we met with a former investigator from 2007 and her name is Camilla. She's so cool we went in and we talked a little about her family and got to know each other. We taught her about the plan of salvation, the lesson went really good she asked many questions, she was really excited about it. It just makes me feel so good when we teach someone who truly has a desire to learn and also when the spirit is there it helps so much! So  we finished teaching her about the plan of salvation, then at the end we asked her "So Camilla, do you believe that this plan is what Heavenly Father wants for us?" She said yeah it makes perfect logical sense and it shows that God really does love us all so much that he has prepared a place where we all will be happy. Then we asked her if she believed it she said yes. When she said that I was so happy and you could see that she felt the spirit it was awesome. Then she asked us how Jesus Christ was tied into the plan. SO we said well we'll be able to talk about that next time we come over, so we have an appointment set to go and talk with her again later this week. we are so excited, but the coolest part is we get back and I'm filling out her teaching record. So the last time she's met with missionaries is 2007, the teaching record said that she was really smart and completely content with where she was at, but she wasn't sure if her children were happy. When we were talking to her she told us that she was in a car accident within the last 3 years, that experience changed her alot and made her realize that she needed God to help her. So while she was in the hospital her relationship with God really became important to her. Then when we called her telling her that we had a message that would add upon the truths that she believes now she was way excited to have us over. So it's just crazy for me to think because as soon as she was ready to hear the gospel again we gave her a call. It really helps me to see that God really does work through us and through those around us.

 I didn't get a chance to mail the package last week so I'll try extra hard to send it off this week! The weather has been getting really nice too, it's been around 10-15 degrees everyday and it barely rained so that was a nice change!

 So yeah ask Cody why he hasn't been answering any of my e-mails?!

Oh and we got to meet with president this week about the I'm a Mormon DVD he said he liked it so we're going to start mass producing them for the mission, he's going to a mission president seminar and he's going to bring a few copies to show different mission presidents from different missions so that's cool!

Anyway I gotta run we have an appointment in a few minutes
 Love you!!!
