Week #48

June 20, 2016

Hi! 

I really have limited time this week to email so I will get right down to business.

We had some great experiences this week! One of which was a new investigator that we picked up! His name is Victor and he is 73 years old. He looks like he is maybe 50! He has heard a lot of things about Mormons but said that he was told by his parents to never develop an opinion based off of someone else's. He is also VERY spiritually in tune! As we were sitting there teaching him about the Restoration of the gospel, I felt the spirit so strongly and just pictured him in all white. Not in baptismal clothes but in temple clothes because that is where he is headed! I am really amazed at how prepared Victor is. We are meeting with him this Sunday to see if he had an answer to his prayers. I would be quite surprised if he hasn't gotten an answer. So stoked to see how quickly he will progress!

Nuvola, an Italian lady that we are teaching is doing pretty great! She doesn't really want to join the church right now but she is willing to read the Book of Mormon and we have a great relationship with her. We helped her paint her garage this last week and then she offered to feed us, so we had dinner with them last night! We got to meet her husband for the first time and he is great! She made the best tasting italian food I have ever tasted! 

Bob is doing great as well! He is still reading the Book of Mormon and we invited him this week to really pray about it! We will be following up with him tomorrow to see if he has done that. Our next step with him is working on getting him to come to church.

Terry is still really progressing in the gospel! He is going to pass the sacrament this coming week for the first time and is now working on family history for the temple! It has been great to see him come closer and closer to Chirst! 

That's mostly everything that has happened in the last week but we have been having a lot of fun doing missionary work! Love you all so much. Hope you have a great week. 

Love,

Jack
