Its like i told mom, i think cale should go to the school by your new house, just leave mountain ridge and lone peak behind. Especially Mountain ridge, that school is a dump. So maybe ill tell him that, nobody know better about switching schools than me. 

This week we did not get 108 contacts, we still got 78 though. So still doing awesome! But the week was harder for us, we had it all changed up by a Tuesday pday cause we had interviews on Monday. So that through us off a little. Then I ended up getting some kinda bug. So between the coughing up my left lung and head acks and my voice being almost gone. It was hard sometimes to find the drive to do anything. Getting sick in the mission sucks, cause you refuse to stay in cause you know you will just feel worse that you did not do anything. But happily im better, so no worries.  

This week we had a hard time getting in with any investigators. we were able to only get in with one buy this week. But it does not mean that the week was a bust. We ended up having really cool experiences.

The first experience was with this guy named Brian. He is about 25 or so and we meet him knocking doors. We talked to him for a long time, one thing he brought up though is something we hear allot but not the way he did. Cause he brought it up the correct way. Many times people bring up the scripture in revelations were it says basically "do not add or take from this book" and everyone always thinks it means the Bible, which it doesn't. And he knew that, he said he had read it and did research and arrived at the conclusion that it is only talking about "the Book of Revelations" Which is correct! He is the only person i have met that actually knew that. This guy though sounds just like a member of the church and everything he shared is what we teach. So in short we gave him a Book of Mormon and he told us he is going to read all we left him and more and he his going to pray and find out for himself and then in 3 weeks we are to come back and discuses what he read and what he thinks. I truly think he could go far, i cant explain more because it would take to long but we hope big things, also a big miracle is he being white we thought we would have to give him off, but we dont! He married a Girl from Columbia and he speaks Spanish as well. so is perfect!   

The second little miracle happened yesterday tracking, it was weird because at dinner our investigators showed up at the members home and we thought about staying to teach them, but just not feel right about it. So we left and went to knock doors by another member and that is when we ran into a girl named Tiffany, We talked to her for a while as well. She said she has been looking for a new church because hers has changed its views and in moving away from focusing on Christ like discipleship. She knew what church we were from and everything. She said we had caught her at a good time, cause she usually works Sunday evenings. She also has hear allot about our church and kinda scares her, but she is willing to see what it is like, because maybe it could be the one for her. Which it is of course, sadly though we did have to turn her over to English missionary's. But im happy we decided to not teach that lesson and leave. Because in the end we found her. And we might not off knocked there yesterday had we stayed and taught. so im glad we followed the spirit and left.
