What a week

Hello hello hello,

 

Well this week wasn't all that fun. We had our most promising investigators, the France family, this week drop us. They are just a little too busy but we were able to find some new potentials though to make up for it. Elder Iongi and I found out a little bit about his visa, his fingerprints are approved and they will be sent to his parents and Brazil this Friday. So we are excited for the progress with his visa. We also have some exciting news the youth are loving the sports day we had. Less people showed up this last week but it was awesome. We had 2 non members there, plus the YM&YW presidents are saying that they want to be more involved in it too.  Plus some of the adults are wanting to start up an activity as well for the adults. We are so grateful for the advice that you gave to us to press forward with it. So we had a weird lesson with a less active this week and he served a mission, his family is very active, and yet he has no testimony of Joseph Smith or of any of the people in the bible. He believes in Jesus Christ and God but isn't sure about the rest. So we are going to work with him by reading the Book of Mormon and teaching his daughters the lessons because they haven't been baptized. We were also able to meet with a less active family that we have been trying to stop by for the past 3 months and they are awesome.  We are completely surprised they live the gospel in every way but they got offended by some other members so they have stopped coming to church. So we are going to do our best to bring them to church over the next few weeks. I am truly having a great time on my mission, hope you all are doing well and have a nice day and week.

Love you all,

Elder Robert Pike
