Week of July 7th

Hola Familia

This was a pretty good week for us. We are really trying to focus on finding people to teach. But not just finding normal people, finding the people that are prepared and ready to accept the gospel. We have really been focusing on seeing if the people we are teaching are going to progress or not and leaving them for future missionaries if they aren't. We feel that this way we will be able to find more people and have more baptisms and not waste a lot of time with people that aren't going to progress.

So this week we went to contact one of the references that we had and they weren't there. It was really far away and in a part of our area that I wasn't really familiar with. When we were walking back down the street I had a feeling that we should contact a house that I saw. So we went and knocked on the door and right away they told us to come in. We found out that there are two girls that live there that are members that got baptized almost two years ago. Then later that day we found another lady that is less active. It was funny because we were looking for investigators and we ended up finding less actives and now we can help them to come back to the church.

This Saturday we have two baptisms. They are the two sons of the lady we baptized about a month ago. They are pretty excited and like going to church. They have even been going to all of the young men's activities. It is awesome to see how the gospel is changing this family for the better.

Today we went to Morropon to go to the waterfalls again. It was pretty cool even though I had already gone haha. This week is going to be really busy with meetings in Piura and baptismal interviews in Morropon and baptisms on Saturday but I'm excited to see what happens this week and see what people we can find to teach.

Love you guys!
