3/7/2011

This week was fairly long, we got 5 investigators to church this sunday which was tons better than last week! we had 2 investigaors fall though cause they weren´t keeping commitments which is sad but it happens alot i guess. we did lots of contacting this week, one of the elders in another area in our district had chicken pox for 2 weeks and so they lacked new investigators, so the whole zone went to their area on day from 2-6or9 and contacted as many people as possible. It was good they got a bunch of new investigators from it. also we had a lady walk up to us on the street and demand we come teach her and her son, which we didn´t argue with her haha, also there are alot of two things we avoid, catholics and jehovah´s witnesses... they like to verbally attack missionaries from our church which is funny cause we just smile and nod say have a nice day and walk away. Well I do anyway, my companion gets a little more upset about it than i do. also we have that whole family with a baptism date and the parents attended church this week, we just have to get the kids to attend, also, the father doesn´t see why he needs to pray to know if something is true if he already knows its true... like that joeseph smith is a prophet and the boo of mormon is true. we have our entire comp. study planned around how we are going to approach it without making him angry, also when we taught the law of chastity to themi shared a scripture ( i forgot the reference) that he said was like a knife to the heart for him and that he can really see a sense for morality now. We also had an exchange this week, i was in our area with one of the zone leaders, he told me i´m the most un-green greeny he has ever seen which i´m trying to not let go to my head. HA but it was a good week over all, nothing super miraculous or memory sparking this week but i hope to have such a story next week :)
 
Love, Elder Allen
