A Few New Investigators

Well its wonderful to hear of all the events of home! 
so much happens when i look away!  
That is crazy to think Clarke is almost done right now!
But hey yes this week was a lot slower and better for working! the only thing that kept us from once again having a full work week was that we had Zone conference Which i was actually asked to conduct! so i conducted the Zone conference with Elder Cornish There .. So the President of the whole Carribean Area got to see me all nervously conducting my second ever meeting haha. but it was good! we learned so much from him and we are working hard to implement what we learned! 
 
highlight of the week was we had an investigator who we met last week named "YA" come to church this Sunday! She is awesome! She is 17 and eager to change her life. She actually told us in the first meeting that she had thought about baptism before with all her friends but figured that she didnt want to promise God That she would be Good when she knew she might break her Promise. But yesterday we went to meet her and finished teaching her about the Restoration. and a the end of the lesson i was starting to talk to her about baptism. and i asked her about her situation before how she didn't want to make that promise with God then, and before i could even ask her how she felt about it now she said "I know what you Going to say, and yes i am ready to be baptized now" SOOO she is cool ! she will get baptized in April! a lot of interesting things have really happened lately!

Anyways! We finally Got a Directory from the branch, it took so long because we dont have a computer in the branch.. it getting repaired for over a month now !! :0
But yes things are going great! we have some wonderful plans for our work! and we are starting to see a lot of success!
Another Highlight of the week was When we went so teach a family known as "ZR" Now they were taught by missionaries before, actually the two years ago when they met with missionaries is actually why "ZR" is Christian instead of Muslim now.  But they are soo cool! they have two sons aged 6 and 8! soo definitely some future missionaries!  and we commited them to doing a nightly family prayer and family reading! And they did it and they described the feeling of the holy Ghost When we asked them how they felt!  now our intent on having them do this was to help them Strengthen their relationship and its working! they are alot happier.    and come wednesday we are going to discus a baptismal date for them as well!
So we are happy for them too! 
 
Something cool that we learned lately is that when people go through spiritual experiences together they grow closer together! So that is why it is so important to have members with missionaries or have members baptize people! so they will grow to the members as well as the missionaries! 
Its really fun being in this canje Area!
I will continue to keep you updated on all our happenings!
But i got to Go!
