The week did not start out strong. 

On wednesday we only had 6 lessons in total for the whole week. We had a really great planning that night and we put goals on what we were going to change and the effort we were going to put. We knew that it was still possible to achieve excellency in many indicators. 

Saturday night we needed 15 more contacts and ask for 16 more referrals so we put the goal for sunday to reach these numbers, we talked to everyone all day in the street and ended up having three new investigators and we took out many visits for this week! We reached the goal! As we felt satisfied after reaching the goal the desire to keep doing it wasn't as strong, yeah we got it now we don't have to do any more. But as we were on the way to our first planned lesson of the day we felt very strong to knock on a door that we pass by almost every day. I thought, we already met the goals, just go to the visit. But the spirit strongly testified to go, that its not for the numbers, but to change lives. So we went, and we met a family of three who had received a pamphlet of the Restoration from a friend who lives far and were praying for missionaries to find them. 

I am so so grateful for the blessing that it is to be influenced by the Holy Ghost. I know Im not perfect, but I know God has higher knowledge and higher ways, as I continue striving to be better I feel him using me in more occasions to bless his children. 

The gift that I want to give him this Christmas is show him that I can be worthy of his Holy Spirit by forcing my self even more and honestly overcoming the natural man than is with in me.

I love you guys! This has been such a cool week! We are teaching so many people,  I would love to tell you about each one individually but we have 25 lessons or more every week and like 20 new investigators! The biggest challenge we have is maintaining all of the people who want to meet with us. There are also lots of other churches here though, one of the funniest things that happened this week, we were visiting an investigator in his house and he was telling us how he really likes the way we teach and how we really care about the people we don't just throw information at them, and right when he was saying that some other church nocked on the door and was like "hey do you want to know the truth!? take this paper and then go to our website" haha. 

The work is amazing, my testimony grows every single day. The members are so awesome and I love joking around with all of them, the investigators are asking such cool questions and I am dropping so much doctrine on them and the scriptures are coming to my mind and we are just helping the heck out of these people, (literally) haha. I can really feel the Holy Ghost working through us to touch these peoples hearts and I am really seeing changes in people. We have some really great investigators right now and we have also been reactivating lots of less actives! I am loving every single day its amazing! 

Pictures, you wanted to see my bathroom? and its summer here there are lot of puppies and kitties, it was so cute there was a little white puppy and a little white kitty the cat didn't like the dog though haha. Until next week!
