Another week has come and gone! And today is my two month mark! Haha it's really not that much but it's crazy how much time has already passed.
The days really are all starting to blur together, so it's pretty hard to remember what we've done this week! We were able to see Tom twice, I can't remember if I've mentioned Tom or not. We are teaching him and his wife up in Tanasket, so we can't see them as often as we'd like. But we were able to have some really good discussions with them and they're making a lot of progress. The only obstacle is that they're having a lot of problems with their marriage. But we're hoping they'll pull through!
We got two new investigators this week. One's name is Clint. He's somehow related to one of the members in the ward--I'm not really sure. We tracted into him, and we almost didn't get to meet him. Because there are a lot pf areas in this town where it's kinda hard to tell if it is a house. And Clint's house definitely didn't... It's pretty sad to see the conditions that some people live in, but it's also very humbling! We were able to sit down with him and talk a little about the restoration and the Book of Mormon. And we're scheduled to see him again! Last night we met with Hailey, our other new investigator. we've been trying to meet with her ever since I got here but we've never been able to catch her at a good time. But last night we tried again and had a VERY good discussion with her. She's only 20 years old, but she has a lot of faith in God and has a great desire to know of the truth. During the lesson her mom popped in out of nowhere and said, "in this household, we don't believe anything should be added to the Bible." We tried to explain to her that it's just ANOTHER testament. She didn't agree. But it was very interesting because after that Hailey told her mom that "well maybe I want to believe that! And I want to hear what they have to say!" It was kinda funny, but it was so cool to see that she's very independent and she's wants to find out the truth for herself. So hopefully that will turn into something!
Well we're not giving up on Dorothy and Steve. We just feel that we need to sit down with them and have a good discussion about everything. Keep praying for them!
It's starting to get very cold here. It's been raining a lot which I love! It's very beautiful.
I love you and miss you all!
