Hey family!

Well this week was a TON better than these last couple of weeks!

We worked really hard to have investigators at church. I prayed, fasted, contacted, worked with a ton of members and just tried to have a lot of hope. So you can imagine my distress when we were at church partaking the sacrament and almost nobody had come. I remember being just about angry, thinking about all of the stuff that we had done, looking for a mistake that we had made, and really just right out frustrated, when about half way through Sacrament Meeting a part member family that we had taught the day before walked in. I am not joking when I say that I almost cried. I literally felt the water come to my eyes for the joy that I felt for seeing that family. I almost could not believe what I was seeing. I learned an important lesson about humility these last couple weeks. I learned that we can not do it alone. There is no way, and less in the Work of the Lord. If we know do not do our part, then it is absolutely impossible that He does His. 

So there is a youth in our ward that is called Jarom. Jarom is a young priest that truly has that fire. He is one of those people that calls us up and asks when he can come with us. We actually have contacted with him quite a bit, and he always participates, but you can only imagine my surprise when he told us that he had been contacting on his own in the taxis and other transports:) To people that he has never seen before, we just gave him some pass along cards:) He is so excited about the work, I love his excitement!!:)

Well I love you guys and I hope that you all have the excitement and will to expand the Kingdom of God!!:) Read D and C 65:6!!:)
