The number is 14

Well, this week has been good.  The work here is moving along really fast.  We have so many investigators and so little time.  We are constantly on the move to get to our lessons. If we have less than 10 lessons in a day we are doing something wrong.  I just love to see so many people that are willing to take on the commitments and change to follow Christ.  It's amazing to see the changes that happen in these people's lives.  This week we have 7 baptisms from this area, and 7 people that I taught in my old area are getting baptized as well.  It's crazy and great.

Some interesting things happened this week.  One of our investigators tried to teach us about purgatory when we were teaching the Plan of Salvation.  My companion's bike is broken and we had to fix it with random spare parts around the house, but it is still pretty much destroyed.  That's what happens when you hit pot holes.  Our service this week was roofing a house using sheet metal.  And that same night at dinner, a lizard fell from the roof, in another member's house, and it fell right into my cup that still had drink in it.  What are the odds?  Then the biggest thing that happened was stake conference.  This past weekend, we got to hear from a Seventy.  He was a really good guy, and he talked to us missionaries quite a lot.  We even got to have lunch with him after conference on Sunday.  It was pretty sweet and I learned a lot from his visit.

Well that's all for this week, hope everyone is doing good and has a good week.

Love
