Love this work!
Tuesday was a great day as we picked up 3 new investigators that day. Jack and Rita are the first two and they are husband and wife, we are way excited to start teaching them. They are friends with a dentist who lives in the Huffman ward so our first lesson was over at their house. It went so well and he was such a great support for the lesson. We are going to have them meet people at church so we can find them fellow shippers in the ward they will be attending as well which will be great. We also picked up Ryan Snow as a investigator that night as well. We have been teaching the lessons to his wife candy who is LA and he has been listening is. Well that night we focused on the principle of tithing as that is something that Ryan struggles with in the church. During the lesson we asked if he would be willing to learn the gospel fully so he can decide for himself if it is true. They are having a child and want to raise it in a church so he was willing to as he wants to go to the same church as his wife. We are pretty excited to see him learn for himself as his wife is pretty awesome with her testimony already it was just rekindling that fire.
We received two great potentials as on Sunday a family came to church who are baptizing their little girls and the mom is not a member. The parents are just coming back and their daughter had been coming with the grandparents the whole time. It was a great as we asked her is she wanted to take the lessons and she was eager to and I am excited as she has allot of understanding and she will get to experience her daughter being baptized this week. I am so thankful for the opportunities heavenly father has blessed us with. I love doing missionary work and being here on a mission.
Thank you so much for all your continued love and support! I hope all is going well for all of you back home and you know how much I love ya! Look forward to talking with those of you that will be there on mother's day!
Love,

Hi Family!
Wow this past week was such an amazing week!! We have been so blessed and I could not be more thankful, the work in our area is going AMAZING. I just hope we can continue to live up to and do the things the lord is asking us and directing us to do. I love how the spirit works and being able to recognize the small promptings of the spirit each and everyday. The lord is literally directing this work and I am thankful to be an instrument in his hands.
We were able to experience a great baptism of Cara Goodman on Saturday. It went so well and the support of the ward was awesome. She was super excited to be baptized and her family was there to support her in her decision. I love seeing someone be able to make that covenant with their heavenly father and be able to realize the importance of it. Erica also came to the baptism and after I talked to her about the importance of her not delaying her own baptism and how Satan does not want her to be baptized. She said she was going to fast on Sunday and pray about it, she was sick so not sure how that went. Tuesday was a great day as we picked up 3 new investigators that day.
