Family,

This week went pretty well. We went on some exchanges with other missionaries in the zone. We did a lot of tracting and visited a lot of people on the ward directory that we didn't know. We visited a lot of potential investigators and former investigators and that kinda stuff.  We had a really good lesson with a former investigator we are trying to start teaching again. It is a mom and she has 5 kids and her mom lives with her as well. They are the nicest people in the world. They have been taught a lot and would be baptized but the mom loves coffee to much!! She says it is her "liquid gold" she is obsessed and cant give it up. At least that is what we hear from other missionaries who have taught her. But we are going to start working with her again. Sister N. has been really hard to teach lately. She is the closest to getting baptized but her husbands health isn't to great and he has been in the hospital again. So it is hard to meet with her. Which is to bad!

Funny story~
This week we got posted on Facebook as "WANTED THIEVES" ha ha ha 
So we were out knocking on doors of members that we didn't know and we went to this one house and it was about 7:00. It was dark outside and we had already gotten yelled at 2 times for knocking on doors when peoples kids are in bed.  (How are we supposed to know they are in bed?)
Anyways we go up to this house and we were about to knock on the door but it was pitch black inside so we said "no it's to dark" you know just trying to be respectful in case they were asleep. 
Well a lot of people here have these fancy doorbells that have cameras and they record when there is movement and so they got us on video going up to their door and saying, no it's to dark and walking away and they posted it to the neighborhood Facebook page asking everyone if they know who these "thieves" are ha ha a member who lives in that neighborhood saw it and showed it to us it was pretty funny.

It is good to hear you are all doing good. I love you all! No I did not get my packages last week. So I'm sure I will get them today. I will try and see if I can wait until Sunday to open them. 

Yes. The members told the people it was us and we are missionaries. We will most likely go back to explain to the people.

I love you all. Thanks for all that you do!!!

Transfers will also be next week so I will email Tuesday not Monday.

(I feel so much better since I have started running. We only run 1 to 2 miles a day but it is still so nice. Mom... my eyes are bad and my shoulder has been hurting. Everything else is going really good!!)
