August 1st - progressing investigators

Hello Fam,

To answer your question mom it hasn't hit me yet that I'm almost home. When September comes that's when I'll know that it's getting real. 

But this week 2 of our investigators had baptismal interviews and they did awesome. This week they'll be baptized and we are expecting a few more for the month of August. It was kinda disappointing this week because we had many tell us that they were gonna come to church and they sounded sure about it but they didn't show. Few of them were new investigators. In the end we had 4 attend. Overall this was a great week and we are looking forward to helping our investigators follow through on their commitment. 

One of the mini miracles that we witnessed this week was seeing one of our progressing investigators giving up his smoking, and drinking of alcohol and coffee. Most of the time when we came in contact with him before we taught the Word of Wisdom he was drunk or smoking. Now he's slowly been getting rid of it. He was doing good he went 5 days straight but then he drank 2 shots. It's sad but at the same time we're still proud of him because it was only 2 when before it would've been a whole bottle. He's an awesome guy because of his sincere desire to follow Christ. 

I know this work is true and I love being a missionary. We are looking forward to the Celestial Law being given to us tomorrow at our MLC with President.


Love,
