Hello Family!

So I sent a lot of pictures this week. So that means I only have to write a short letter, right?

This week has been a roller coaster. We had one day where we only managed to teach two lessons. It seemed like everything fell through that day. (Keep in mind that the mission goal is an average of five or more lessons per day.) But the next day we were able to teach eight times! (Not unheard of, but not something we manage every day).

On Saturday, Nery came to a baptism in the ward, but we still can't get him to come to church. He reads what we leave...we aren't quite sure what's holding him back from coming to church on Sundays! That's kind of where we are at right now. We teach lots of people, both members and investigators, but we struggle to help them take the step to go to church. (In the case of investigators to go to church for the first time, and in the case of so many members to become members who go to church consistently.)

Any ideas? What blessings have you seen, specifically associated with observing the Sabbath day and going to church? Maybe something you have seen will transfer into something we can share with members and investigators as we teach.

I love you all so much! I hope you have a wonderful week!  And just so you know, I still go running with cows in the mornings. (Well, I go running every morning, and depending on where we go running sometimes there are cows.)

Love you all!
