Letter from September 18 Last night we were talking to one of our investigators named David, he is a super strong 7th Day Adventist and is one of the nicest people I have ever met. We had a lesson with him at 6 but were in a really good lesson with this other guy, Justino, who had recently just been ran over by a car and we have been teaching him for about 2 weeks. We talked to Justino for about an hour and a half and then gave David a call. We told him why we didn't come and he said we could go meet him at the track and walk and talk with him. We got there and there were two other ladies there walking with him and we had a good chat.

Letter from Sept 11 This week has been good, not that much has happened but the things that did happen were amazing!! We found 3 new investigators this week and they are solid. Two of them are Hortencia and Carlos, a couple with 2 kids, one of them is 20 and the other is 15 i believe. On Saturday, they fed us dinner and we had a really great lesson about the Doctrine of Christ. We ate and talked, just to kinda get to know them more.

We got talking about baptism with them and of course, we invited them to be baptized. They said not yet, They want to know more about it all. But i definitely feel that if we keep on teaching them and show them that we love them, we can get them to come closer to Christ. The other new investigator is another Carlos. We met Carlos when we were actually going to see his dad, Carlos. There are TONS of people named Carl...

Letter from September 5 HI GUYS!!!! This week has been AWESOME!! I love my new companion so much. he is amazing. His name is Elder Sanchez, he is from Mexico City. He is one great missionary and he is helping me a lot with my Spanish. There have been times where we only speak Spanish to each other which is honestly so strange because I had no idea that I could do that. We have connected with a lot of people in the streets and found out that Elder Sanchez might have a few family members living in Walla Walla. Cool Right?? 1. The Gang got broken up. I moved apartments and i dont know what my new address is. If yall want to send stuff, just send it to the mission home address and it will make its way to me. So there we were, just walking talking to everyone we see and i had a feeling to pray and ask for guidance, so we prayed. After the prayer, we opened our eyes and this guy walks out of his house and stands in his front yard. We walked over and started talking to him, his name i...
