This week has been a little on the rough side. We've had trouble getting in contact with some people, and a lot of our lessons fell through. Even though we're struggling with that we've still had a lot of great stuff happen. We had a great lesson with a family that has been taught for a while, La familia Sosa. They are awesome and the mom, Reyna has a testimony of the Book of Mormon. We're focusing a lot on the dad, Moises. From what we've heard he's kinda holding the family back so we are trying to help him get a testimony. We got the mom to share her testimony last time we went over and then invited them all to pray about the Book of Mormon. We talked to our branch mission leader and he said that Moises wants to get baptized he just wants to be sure first. One of things he said we should do for Moises was pray and fast. So Friday we did a fast for him and we've been praying a lot he'll get an answer.
Also I just wanted to say how amazing it is going to church again. I've loved the missionary sacrament meetings and I'll never forget them, or how they've changed the way I feel about the sacrament, but honestly there is just something special about going to church. I hope I never have to wait 7 months again to go.
