Dear Family and Friends,
This last week was crazy!!! It started
with us finding 2 new investigators after preperation day was over and
then trying to find and teach people.
On Tuesday we taught a few
lessons and didn't find anyone new to teach. Unfortunately, we have 2 less
invetigators to teach and focus on. That gives us a lot more time to find some new investigators.
Wednesday was super great!! We had a lot of appointments and we found 2
new investigators! Something funny we found out that the FLDS
church sends their "revelations" to all the bishops in the world. Our bishop got some mail from them and he said we could see what it was
because he didn't have time to look at that mail. So we did it was weird
stuff and he told us to burn it so we are! We also taught a part member
family and the hermano that is a member said he didn't have ganas I mean
desires to go to church. So we are going to try and help them see why it
is important to read and to go to church.
Thursday we found a family of
6 to teach!!! It was super cool they were formers that I had never met. They said they were learning 3 years ago and the missionaries
just left and never came back! So of course now we are teaching them and they
told us to come back on Friday to teach them again! We also taught some
more lessons to investigators! We started teaching Juan again. He is
doing good and he has just been so busy that he couldn't meet with us. His work is in landscaping so there busiest time is in the summer.
Friday we had 6 lessons! Also another new investigator!! We also taught
one of the friends of our ward mission leader and had to do a member
split for an hour because we had 2 appointments at the same time!
Saturday we had a mini mission with the youth in our ward that we didn't
even know about! We got a text at 8:30 in the morning and then we found
out it was at 9:15 in the morning! We actually had 2 young men so we
did a split and did some visits and then we had a devotional at the Stake Center. It was really good and the kids really learned a lot from
this mini mission experience!! We also had correlation and 2
appointments and one with another family of 3!! So in total we found 13
new investigators!!!
Sunday we had church and taught some lessons and
visited the members and I ate Ox Tail. Yes, a tail of an ox it was yummy!! Then we realized we had the best week as far as numbers and teaching
go!!! We had 23 lessons and 13 new investigators!!! We only have this
success though because we are finding the people that Heavenly Father
has prepared for us. We are also doing all that we can to be obedient and focus
on the work and keep moving forward!! I am excited for how this next
week will turn out. This is the last week of the transfer and I hope I
get to stay for another one because a lot of good things are happening
in this area!!
I love you all and I hope you have a good week!
Que les vaya bien!
Love Elder Reisner
