Hey there errybody,

This week was a pretty fun week. Lots and lots of fun times for sure. We accomplished something great this week! We had NO people sign up to feed us on our calendar so we went ahead and took matters into our own hands and somehow managed to have a dinner (or at least someone dropping food off or something like that) every night this week! Where there's a will there's a way! That was cool. The members here are very loving and a lot of them are willing to feed us but somehow don't get to see the calendar. I guess some people get skipped over when it's being passed around? 

This week our Mission President had challenged every companionship to teach every night and we were able to do it! We had some really good lessons and things kinda all fell into place. We were also blessed to be able to have a lot of members from the ward come out and teach with us. Having members take us to lessons is the BOMB. We love it. We finally started to officially teach a guy named Oscar that we've been trying to visit for a month or two. We were finally able to teach him and focus on his family and how much of an impact they have had on him. They moved a few years back to a completely different place because he and his wife wanted their daughter to be in a safe place. Now that's some commitment to helping a child. That was super cool to hear from him. There are so many people that we meet who are worried about their families and who want the best for them. Finding and teaching those people are my favorite things to do! It really makes me love being a missionary and doing this work. 

I hope you guys all have a great week! Love love love

Keep it real.
