Week 15

Its been a great week! Its been supper hot and humid and sweaty and I am browner than I have been in a long time.

I had the greatest opportunity to ride a bike this month. We have a car but we only have a certain amount of miles every week and this month we had to get car inspections which means that we were 200 miles short this week and now we have to bike. It has been tough but I am glad that I don't have to walk. Hermana Winder and I make it as positive and we can.

We have a new investigator by the name of Juan Cortez. He was a referral from the Elders and has been to church twice. We invited him to be baptized on Saturday and he said yes! He is all for it and it is such a miracle! We are supper exited for him. He is one of those people that can just talk on and on and on in a circle and we struggle to try to change the subject back.

There is an investigator in Mayfield named Guadalupe who is fantastic! She has a love for the savior and wants so much for her children to be on the right path. A couple of weeks ago the Elders in Mayfield asked her if she would get baptized and she said yes! We will be preparing her for her baptism on July the 5. We don't get to see her often but plan to talk to her on the phone and have some lessons that way so that she will be ready when the 5th comes around.

This transfer is flying by! As my compa says "time flies when you are having fun".

I love missionary work. If you want to be happy all you have to do is become a missionary:) most importantly I have learned that obedience is the key to happiness. Heavenly father has made a plan for all of us to find happiness in this life and I am here to share that plan. I love this gospel I know that it is true. I know that the Book of Mormon is true. I have been reading its pages and I have been praying to know if it is really true and every time I ask it is the same. The Book of Mormon is true and if you have not had the chance to read it I challenge you to do so and pray to know if it is true. I know without a doubt that you will receive an answer.

I love y'all;) stay cool
