HELLO!!! How are all of you this week?? I hope you are having a good
week!!
Well, well, well, my week was a
good one. The biggest highlight of course being Frank being baptized and
confirmed! He was so prepared from the get go and it was super awesome to be a
part of teaching him and seeing him baptized. The service was a really good one! My favorite part was that Geannie came and even said the
closing prayer! How awesome that as such a new member she already would come to
somebody else's baptism to support them, etc. Also Tammie and Frank are just awesome to us and look out for
us so well (they live in the same apartment complex as us).

The refugees are still doing very
well. We just ate dinner last
night with all like 14 of the Gasana family and then we read the introduction
of the Book of Mormon with them. We also met a man named Jimmy and his wife and 2 daughters
that are refugees from a long time ago and they are now well-established Americans
and they were awesome to us as well.
Last night while tracting we found
a very cool lady named Rosa who is from Puerto Rico and she knows the church. Her English is bad but she said she went
to the Mormon church in Puerto Rico. We are going back over tonight.
I feel like my testimony is
strengthening a lot on the Lord's preparation of people to receive us as
missionaries. I have noticed that
very rarely do I ever convince somebody the gospel is true. It is more just about finding those that
already know it is true and telling them the things they have already believed
their whole life.
Love you all. Have a great week!
