June 19, 2017 Week of Firsts

This past week was a week full of firsts. My first driving lesson,
first district Meeting and first baptismal interview. All went well!
The work has been a bit slow but things will pick up. We saw Michael
and we were able to explain more about the Book of Mormon. Kingsley
his 8 year old son has been reading it and loving it. They are
interested but the mom is a stumbling block, she loves her Christian
church that she was brought up in. Lots of potential there though! We
weren't able to see Anthony but will see him tomorrow.

Other than that not too much happened, except that it has been super
super hot. It is so humid here haha. Have been finding a lot but
haven't been able to find promising people that are willing to
progress. We are praying a lot specifically to find someone to teach
consistently towards baptism. We will find them!

My first driving lesson was fun. It didn't take too long to adjust to
being on the other side of the road and car but the roundabouts here
are so weird and take some getting used to. But I enjoyed it. I was
able to interview the sisters investigator from India and it was a
spiritually uplifting experience, she is so excited for her baptism.

I hope you all are doing well and I invite you to watch: "Be of Good
Cheer" by President Monson in the April 2009 Conference.
