Dear Family and Friends,
This last week was another good week but
let me tell you why. Monday we had a noche de hogar with the Reyes
family and it was great!
Tuesday we taught some lessons and tried to
find. We also had to pass off a really great investigator to the English
elders because she doesn't speak Spanish so that was a little sad.
Wednesday we taught and found and blessed a less active lady's home and
family.
Thursday we taught Juan and he is doing good but he is just so
difficult at the same time!! He knows what he needs to do then he just
doesn't do it! So, we may have to drop him which is sad but necessary. :-(
Friday was crazy bike day! We biked between 20-30 miles!! We were
able to contact some referrals and teach some but boy was I exhausted at
the end of the day!
Saturday was a good day!! We taught a bunch and we
had a good meeting with our ward mission leader. Also, we have an
investigator Silvia that we taught. She really wants to go to church but
she has 12 sicknesses and spends the day with her family. So for that she
says she can't go to church on Sunday. We are going to have a noche de hogar and she
said she could come to that.
Sunday we had church and we taught some
lessons and did some finding. We had a good lesson with Patty and Sergio
and we really think they will be able to be baptized by the end of this
month!! Also, we went to an investigators house. Her name is Maria and we
thought we were going to have to drop her. We actually helped her to
understand that she knows the Book of Mormon is true! She accepted
the invitation to be baptized and to come to church the next Sunday
which was completely unexpected!! We also are teaching a great family and
they are coming to the noche de hogar and are reading the Book of Mormon. They are also
going to church and accepted the invitation to be baptized!! So a lot
of good things are happening in this area! Especially now that we are
inviting everyone to be baptized! It really helps us to know who is prepared to receive the gospel and who isn't. Then we can work effectively and really
teach and baptize the people who are prepared to receive the gospel and
really fulfill our purpose! Anyway, it's really exciting!! I
love you all and I hope you all have a great week!
Love, Elder Reisner
