Transfer 3 week 2

Hey Family and Friends
How is everything going?
DT is doing really well. Its so cool to see his testimony growing. He has all positive stuff to say about the church, and he asks questions, and gets into the lessons. And we interact well with him. Its amazing to see his tranformation even over the years. I guess he has a daughter
and his ex-wife that are members. Anyways he used to be so against the church
and even prevented them from coming. He truly wants to know if our claim of the only true church is correct. The whole experience he has been sincere. He's firmly committed on his own to finish the B.O.M this week. When we were leaving at the end of our last visit he
said." Im excited to see you guys next time I come, and who knows maybe I'll
have some exciting information before then." I'm pretty excited; I'm pretty
sure we will get him baptized.

Another cool experience was with J. as you know it has been very difficult to see him. In fact we hadn't seen or heard from him in over a couple weeks. We were wondering what in the world is going on. Well as we were coming home one night we got stuck in traffic and it was pretty
annoying. Well it took awhile and then we stoped for Gas. Guess who was there
J. We talked to him found out that he had been working two shifts lately. We
gave him some chapters to read. We set up a time with them. That was a miracle.
The Lord controlled the traffic so we could be in the right place at the exact
right time so we could talk to Javier. Kinda crazy but awesome.

We found a cool dude named R. He was very nice and we are excited for him.
Well AM's baptism keeps getting pushed back due to scheduling
problems. So we now have him swcheduled for the 27th of September.

A little sad news two people in our ward are in the hospital so if you would pray for Brother
H and Brother B that would be awesome. It is crazy how many
blessings we have had to give lately. Well the work is going good. Difficult but
rewarding. I'd love to hear from you all; take care and God
Bless you. This is the True Church.

Week 6 transfer 2

Wow, I'm almost done with my second transfer; it is amazing how fast time flys out here. I hit my three month mark on thursday. This week has been filled with highs and lows. Do you remember when I told you about J my first weekend how I had high hopes for him; we were finally able to teach him. The lesson went amazing and he was so receptive and willing to listen and do what we asked him. With that in mind he then proceded to miss three appointments in a row and that was pretty dissapointing. I don't get it; he really seemed sincere, I honestly feel though that things just popped up that got in the way and that he still isinterested at hearing our message. DT has been VERY busy with work so we haven't been able to meet with him these last two weeks so pray for those two people especially. We found four new investigators this week which was good. I would say its been a pretty good week and I'm excited we have another baptism coming up this saturday. It's for AB; she is a 12 year old girl and then we have another one coming up the following week. The weather here has been very nice; its been like 80 the last week so perfect tempature.
