We had an awesome week this week! Some ups and downs, but it was great. I'm a little pressed for time, so this will be short, but some great things happened. We had a "mini-missionary" this weekend from Friday night to Sunday night. He just came out with us for the weekend and did everything we do to prepare for his own mission. His name was Salesi Fifita and he's Tongan. He was sick! We had a way good time together, it was fun to have a little change and we were able to see some miracles. We found a new investigator on Saturdaynight who had been found about 10 years ago by missionaries! I'm excited to work with her and see what happens.
Mom--I did get your package! I wanted to send a picture with it, so that's why I didn't mention it last week. That was a way cool package though! Super creative haha. Even the Oreos were green!
We met some awesome people with that mini-missionary too on Saturday. A member originally from Brazil pulled up along side us on the street and talked to us for a little while. He actually served in the same mission as Luke! Then a little farther down the street, we met a guy from Egypt and explained the Book of Mormon to him. He was way nice! Then a little farther down the same street, we met a guy from Serbia! He has family that are members of the church, but wasn't very interested. I talked to him a little bit about tennis though and asked him if he knew who Novak Djokovic was and he gave me the update on Indian Wells haha. It was awesome!
My zone leaders had a baptism yesterday and we had the chance to go. It was a lady that I had the chance to teach a couple times on exchanges, and she actually wanted to me be part of her baptismal program, so that was a huge blessing. It was awesome. She is one of the most prepared people I've ever met. She knew right when she met the missionaries that she wanted to change her life and that they were going to help her do that. Her husband hasn't showed any interest in the church, but he still supports her in going to church and everything, so that is awesome. She had no doubts about being baptized though, she bore her testimony right after the service and said that she knows one day her husband will join her because of the happiness she feels. So cool.
I love you all so much! Have a great week!
