So everything is going good just my companion has been sick for the last few days :-( We have been working really hard finding and teaching as many people who want to be baptized when my companion has been feeling well.
We had a Zone Conference in which we were told that we aren't asking people to be baptized as much as we should be and I am guilty of that. We also learned that we need to purify ourselves which means get rid of all the things that are causing us not to dedicate ourselves 100% to the work. This last Sunday what I did is I fasted and made a list of all the things that were distracting me. Now I am taking that list and I am fasting from those items for 40 days in order to purify myself and really serve the Lord with all my heart might mind and strength.
As for all of our investigators we didn't have a chance to meet with any of them that we found last week due to sickness and canceling their appointments. We did find new investigators to teach so that is always good. When I left the Zone Conference it made me really think about what repentance is and how to be a pure missionary who can teach with power and authority. I want to be more humbled and repentant than ever before.
We also had our soccer activity which was quite successful. We had investigators, non-members and less actives so it was good! This next week we won't have soccer but the 15th we will play again against another ward. We also helped move some people and we found a family that is having some problems but we know that the gospel can really help them out in their lives!
I think that's all I have this week.
Love, Elder Reisner
