Excerpts from Mom's email:

Hey Mom!

The rest of the week has been really good! We have been able to get a lot done the last couple of days! Swear we have just been running everywhere and urgency is at a high right now! It is also getting really pretty here, but pretty hot and only getting hotter.

This past week we were able to have a trade off with Prospect Zone Leaders again which was really good! They have two zone leaders and two new missionaries in their area at the moment. So I went over to their area with two of them and Elder Tauti stayed here with two of them and lead out! It was so funny how nervous he was for it lol! I have had him lead out the area with me a few times, but he has never had to fully do it. It is really preparing him for the future because soon enough he will be finishing his training. Anyway, so Prospect is always a really good experience and always learn something new! It is crazy how much we are able to get done if we are urgent with everything! The days go even faster to when we do that, but we can get so much done and see so many people. We even would run after or run to people on the streets and almost run door to door. It has been a great learning opportunity for me and has helped our area as well! This next week we are shooting for 10 new investigators, a really high number for our area, but we know we can do it with the Lords help! The missions sights are aiming higher now that it is getting close to the end of the year! Because of that, we are feeling it as well, but just this past week we were able to get 4 new Baptismal Dates which is again high for us. So the work is hastening a lot here and I am finding more joy in the work every day!

I was able to go and see F... and his wife yesterday and starting to see just how great of a convert F... really is. He has a talk this next week at the missionary fireside and like 3 other things he has planned to do these next few weeks! His son is all well and good now, was a bit of a scare for them, but he is totally fine now. Turns out nothing bit him, it was just an infection that he got. Kind of weird, but he had a small surgery to get all the fluid out of his face and he's all good now.

Hey Dad!

Yeah thanksgiving was really good this year! Had it twice! Once at the Smith's and once at the Tutors!

With experiences, ummm....
Well met a lot of cool people this week and many new investigators, but guess what... All of them are single women so we had to refer all of them to the sisters... but I am sure they love us for that lol.
