Well it sounds like you all have had a really good and busy week this last week. Meg and Tyler were out in across the world riding elephants and petting tigers and stuff. Mom´s been tending their kids and dad has been busy with all the Stake stuff, so it sounds like its been a good week. Well this week has been a great week here too for me. We have been finding some more cool people and some of our investigators are really starting to progress. This past week we contacted this lady and we started teaching her husband and her and they just felt the spirit from the get go of our first lessons and we invited them to go to church and they showed up. We asked them if they wanted us to go look for them before church and they told us that they would find it, and so that is what they did they showed up by themselves without really knowing where the church was, so it was really cool to see them show up. Also the rosani, the lady we found a couple weeks ago, is still just progressing and her mom too. They are reading all of the pamphlets and are going to church so they are right on track to receive the great blessings of baptisms. And we are also teaching this other lady her name is isaman and her husband is a member who is coming out of inactivity. We found them a couple Pdays ago, when we got finished writing you guys we started walking back to the house and on our way home the guy saw us and called out to us and told us that he wanted to repent and come back to the church and that he wanted his life to hear the lessons. Well they have been going to church every week for about a month now and she is reading the book of mormon and is already in 2 nephi 10, so she has a lot of interest in the message and accepted a baptismal date and will be getting baptized on March 23, we just got to get them married first and then she will be ready. So we are finding a lot of people and we are just trying to be the Lord´s instruments here in Los Alcs, so all is going well. So I am still just learning a lot, one thing we teach a lot to our investigators, is recognizing the holy ghost in their lives as it gives them answers to their question. Like it says in Galatians that the fruits of the spirit are love, peace, joy, goodness etc. We explain to them that the spirit will talk unto our minds and unto our hearts, so when they pray about the message, and if the message is true, then they are going to feel the peace, the happiness, and the joy in their hearts and then they will know that it is the spirit that it is testifying that the message is true. I have noticed that when we really explain it to them so that they can understand how to recognize the spirit, they receive and recognize so many more answers from God. It is the same with us in our lives, when we realize how to recognize the spirit in our lives then we will strive so much more to have those feelings with us everyday. And we will be guided to help a lot more people. Anyways, everything is going good for me here, I hope that all is going good back home. I love you all and I hope you have a good week.
