Loving my new area!

Hello everyone!

This week has been very good. The members here are incredible! So loving and kind and are willing to go out of their way each day to help the missionaries. There are a few families in this ward that we can call up and ask for their help whenever its needed. I've been here almost two weeks now and I feel more comfortable with the area. I have made a lot of new friends in the ward, and I would feel comfortable in leading out in the area without getting lost. Thanks to my new GPS. ;)  

This week we had a black man named Vernon that accepted baptism on November 24th! This is very exciting! Hopefully he progresses well and can start overcoming his smoking problem. From what I have seen out here so far is once a person has a spiritual experience while reading the Book of Mormon and comes to know it is true, all of their concerns and setbacks seem to wither away. Even addictions! The Lord strengthens us through our trials when we are consistently obedient with the small and simple things. He asks for us to do. 

There is still a lot of work to be done in this area. Many potentials to go see and a lot of neighborhoods that we haven't been to yet. This week we are striving to be a little more obedient, work a little harder, smack some doors and shake the bushes so we can expect to see many mighty miracles. Until next week! God Bless!
