This week has been pretty tiring, but has been rewarding as well. Elder Zufalt and I have been working hard to find more investigatores and help the ones that we already had start progressing a little better. It´s nice to see that all of our hard work bore some good fruits this week. We ended up with 10 of our investigatores in church yesterday, which is a lot better than the two or three that have been coming. We were especially excited to see a family there that we´ve been teaching but hadn´t gone to chruch yet, Arismendys and Mari and their trhee sons. They always pay great attention in our lessons, and the 21-year-old son said they were going to be coming back every week when they asked him to stand and introduce himself in priesthood meeting. We also were happy to see Angela and her daughters there. She was a refferal from some members that live in her same allyway and work in the same place as her. She´s really receptive and felt the spirit strongly when she prayed about the message of the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We´re going to teach her tonight and are planning on inviting here to get baptised on the 24th. We´re also excited for Martinez, who´s been sharing with the missionaries for a few months now. He´s been saving up money to get married and almost has everything he needs. We´ve also recieved a few promising refferals from the members. A member came to our ward yesterdy who was actually from a different ward because her friends had promised her that they would go to church. THey weren´t able to go this week, but she talked to us and told us where they live. We´re planning on finding them today. Just a couple hours ago I actually recieved a refferal from someone in my frist area. We went to my first area for a zone activity to play with a group of missionaries and she saw me there and asked me where I am now. She recgnized the area and told me where her grandmother lives. We´re also goingto try to find her tonight. All in all, things are starting to pick up a little more for us and we´re excited to see people really starting to accept the gospel in their lives.
Anyhow, I love you guys and I thank you all for your prayers and thoughts. I hope you´re all doing well and I´ll see you soon.
Cuídense!
