Yesterday we had a baptism for "Y". It went great. "C" baptized her and next Sunday she will be confirmed. Since I've been here for awhile I've seen this family grow. After we baptized "C" and "T" their family has increased. "T's" mother "P" , was a less active most of her life but because of them being baptized she became more interested. Eventually  her son "S" was baptized and then a month later "T's" sister "Y" wanted to be baptized also. It's an honor to see the effects of how 2 people who are baptized will have forever changed the life of their family. And now they all attend church , they're living the gospel and enjoying the blessings from it.

We found 3 new investigators this past week. His name is "J". He said he was catholic and wants to become closer to God. We taught him about the restoration and he invited us to come back again. We are planning on seeing him tonight. 

We also found a family of 7 to teach.  We were doing harvest blessings and they said to come back later that evening. When we came back we taught the mom and dad. They said they are open to learning more.

Tell grandma thanks for the package and thank you dad for the messenger bag. It's great and it works fine ( I feel like the kid on the movie " premium rush")  ....the only thing is , since I am not a big person would you be able to get a smaller one and I forgot to tell you I wanted a small one because I only want to carry books of Mormon and that's really it.

Well I got to go,

love,
