Good Times in San Gabriel

Dear everyone, 
(Elder Reisner said that he remembered his cord today to send us some pictures but either he forgot to attach them or download them!  I will remind him again and hopefully we can have some pictures next week!)
This last week was super great!! The Noche de Hogar on Monday where we did a live reenactment of Lehi's dream was a BIG SUCCESS!!! Everyone came there were more people there then there were at church!! We had a great time and so did the members it was great! :-) Tuesday we knocked on doors all day and went tracting.  Then the bishop asked us to deliver cards to all the less active ladies in our ward. So we were doing that and working around the areas where they lived which turned out good because we found some great potential investigators by doing so!  Wednesday we tracted and delivered the rest of the cards nothing too exciting. We found some more potential investigators though!! Thursday was a super great day!! We had district meetings. We learned that we sometimes want to go faster with our investigators then how fast they need to be going on the road to conversion. So we need to know at what pace to teach them and invite them to make commitments.  We also had 2 lessons with a family and Juan another one of our investigators. We read with both of them but Juan was so great about understanding what the scriptures were saying and how to apply them! Friday was biking day and we just contacted people all day it was great! Saturday we went to a service project and we also went by our investigator Arturro's house. He said he'd read the Book of Mormon! We also tracted and then we were seeing if our investigators were going to the Mothers Day activity that was that night. We gave them invitations previously but we didn't know if they were going. Then we had the activity where we served the food and helped out the ward as much as we could. Then we tracted and contacted people in a park it was a good day! Sunday we had 2 lessons with a new family and Maria then I got to talk to my Mom:-)  and family!!!  :-) and surprise guest that was super great!! :-) We ate dinner also with the bishopric and then we taught a less active family so that was another good day! The work here in San Gabriel is going super great!! I love you all!!! 
Love, Elder Reisner
