Be a friend like Jobert 11-19-2017

Hey everyone! Hope you guys had an awesome week and ur doing good!

This week was good! We got to teach a boy who went to church with his member friend(jobert) and we also got to know his family! So they're super awesome and were hoping they can progress! Super awesome how the member took his non member friend to church and how it sparked his interest in learning more about the church! And we got to teach his brother also. But they were in the city on sunday so they didn't go to church. But hopefully next week! Their mom is cool! Shes the only one in her family who is not a member of the church. So hopefully we can convince them of the truth. 

Also our teaching went super good with Revelyn and Alexia. We taught them about the Word of Wisdom and the Law of Chasity and they are so receptive. They've been reading a ton in the Book of Mormon and praying like crazy. They're getting ready for their baptism on December 2. And they love going to the activities with the branch here. They are so masipag! And they are an Investigator family but the Dad and Mom don't really have an interest in listening to us. So were trying to pray super hard for them. So hopefully we can teach them. But the Dad said its okay if they get baptized. So i mean his hearts open a little bit. We will keep trying with him. 

And we also did some finding this week and it was super hard! We would contact them and share about the restoration and then set a return appointment to actually teach them. And then it would never work out. Like all of our appointments but 1 actually worked out. So its been a little bit of a struggle. But were going to be consistent with it. We got this. Hopefully next week will be better. I got news too and i get to do exchanges with one of my MTC companions Elder Yingling this tuesday. So its going to be so fun! So a lot to look forward to this week. 

And also i got news that one of my investigators in one of my last areas was baptized! Ruffa! So that makes me super happy! She was the member referral i always talked about and she decided to be baptized! So that's so awesome. I remember the first time i met her and i had a feeling that she would be baptized! and turns out i get news shes baptized! So lets go. 

THE WORK OF THE LORD IS HARD BUT ITS VERY REWARDING.

So help us missionaries out and give lots of referrals. So there can be lots of baptisms. 

We also are getting close with this less active named Jonas. His family was baptized a while ago and they stopped going to church. But we've been being friends with him and inviting him to stuff and this sunday he went to church so thats so awesome. And his little sister hasn't been baptized yet but shes 12. So hopefully we can reactivate the family and baptize the little girl! So we'll try it this week! WIsh is luck! 

But in the mean time i will be playing lots of basketball and teaching people the gospel. So you guys can be jealous! Have a good week!
