Week 68, November 21, 2016

Hello, Fan Club! =D 

This week has been fairly slow, so there's not too much to share, but I have a bit so enjoy!
I am pleased with our area; all of our leaders keep telling us that they feel the level of excitement going up and that missionary work is starting to thrive here. Our bishops are really pleased with us and we have a good relationship with each of them. Our stake representatives think that we and the Vickroys are doing a good job and that this is the most the stake has seen in missionary work for almost a year. I personally feel that we still have a ways to go before it will be at the level I want, but I'm grateful for the progress we have seen so far. 
Sis. Soakai is literally heaven sent for me and this area; she is so easy going in that she trusts that things will work out okay and she doesn't stress about small things. She's super bright and happy but also realistic and hard working. I love her so much and her ability to see the positive in everyone. 
We have been making progress with one family, the Fletchers. We had a lesson with them about faith and you could feel the Spirit so strong! They haven't really paid attention in previous lessons but this time both were engaged and asking good questions. I love them greatly and I could clearly feel the Lord's love for them as we taught and I feel that they are close to progressing. The wife is a non-member and he's less active, so we are hoping to see her baptized in December and him coming back to church.
We are also continuing to work with a part member family who has a recent convert who is 11 now. He is setting a great example to his family and now his mom is starting to come back and his dad is trying to truly listen to the Spirit. This man is a good man who is seeking out God, he just has a very peculiar way of going about it. We hope to help him move past his fears/concerns and be baptized but he could use a few extra prayers if possible please. I love this man and can see myself and other friends in him, so I think he's part of the reason I'm here. 
We continue to work hard to find new people, we are training our wards on the 3 week conversion cycle, and working on getting splits. We do a lot of our own finding, but we working on gaining member trust and building faith in the members. I love this area, it is growing, and I'm excited to see a miracles here! Sorry, I don't have any funny stories for this week that I haven't posted on Facebook, so if you want to see some of our adventures there, just check out my page! 
I love you all! I hope you have a great week, one spent with family and filled with good food. Happy Thanksgiving!!! Remember who you are, be good, and love you much!

Love,
