What a week,
This week was very busy for us. We sat with Antonio on Monday and the sole purpose was to get him to see the need of a Prophet. We were able to do that, we didn’t go into modern prophets on Monday because that’s what we wanted to accomplish on Wednesday. We were able to help him also believe in Modern Prophets. In his words, "it makes sense, It’s gotta be true!" It was awesome! He passed his interview on Friday afternoon. That’s the happiest I've ever seen someone after they passed their interview.
Chris Lord is doing great too. His baptism is on the 6th of Dec. This man is the most sincere man I have ever met. He has been having some challenges this past week but has been battling them. I remember when I was little and playing baseball, Dad always made us do the ABC's, D is what Chris has, “Desire.” He truly wants to change his life and he is thinking about sending missionaries to his family who are out of state. He is just awesome.
Chris Goeckeritz is the hardest working 26 year old man. It’s super hard to see him, but we find time! and he is going to baptized with Chris Lord on the 6th.
We picked up a new investigator on Thursday! His name is also Chris... so many Chris'. He's got a lot on his plate also and is working through things, and we are doing our best to help him. I’m super excited to work with him. We had a lesson yesterday and it was fantastic. This man is truly prepared for this Gospel. It’s weird though, he has lived in UT his whole life and is now just taking the lessons for real. He has talked with missionaries many times but never let them come to his home.
The week was pretty busy, but a lot of fun. The coming weeks are going to be fun also!.

Extra emails: So I got a package from grandma yesterday, made me laugh! (I think she just put his address on a box of rice krispies and mailed it. She always gave him rice krispies after his ball games). It’s so funny, my companion laughed too.
We are staying pretty busy and that’s every missionary’s dream: to stay busy
The work is paying off. We had our last transfer with no baptism and this transfer they are coming. (A transfer is a 6 week period, sometimes with a transfer happening at the end when one of the missionaries is relocated) I love this work!!
I love you!
I have to go!
