One more week down. They seem to go by so quickly now! This last week was fairly eventful, so that is good. We found a couple to teach in Little Mexico, Alejandro and Felicites. They are a young couple with a 6 month old baby boy. They are both Catholic by tradition but don't really attend church ever. We taught them the message of the restoration and gave them the Book of Mormon. As we explained baptism they asked us what the correct form of baptism is, so we told them the way Christ did it, by immersion from someone who had the priesthood authority and they liked that answer. We told them their newborn did not need baptism seeing as he has done nothing wrong in his life. Hopefully they will be able to come to church soon and feel the Spirit that will bless them as a family. A couple doors down from this family we found another woman named Adriana who seems fairly interested as well. We will see how things go for them.
On Tuesday we got a call from a member asking us to help a friends mom move some stuff out of a house. Turns out this lady has been dating this guy for over 3 years. She sold her house and moved in with him. One day he decides that all his problems are "her fault" so he told her to get out. So she calls her daughter and eventually we get called. We took everything out of that house!! The fridge, washer and dryer, all the food (they gave it all to us!), all the toilet paper, everything! Afterward they took us out to eat at Sonny's BBQ. It was a way fun day!!
We had a lot of member appointments again this week. I think it will really start to pay off soon. This is something that President Summerhays is pushing a lot. I guess the whole church is pushing member work. The branch is really starting to step up its game lately. We are holding all the meetings we are supposed to and filling all callings. Transfer calls are coming up. Saturday we get the news. I think Nav is gone but if he doesn't leave this one he'll be with me to the end and then he'll finish here. All I know is that I'm going to finish up here.
