Week 75 - Buena Vista

 
Hey everybody! This week was a pretty good one. We thought last week that Brandon hadn't come to church, but then it turned out that he did, and he just went to sacrament meeting and had to go after that! So he is on date  and we're working super hard with getting him to read, especially talks from modern prophets. So things are going well with him. We also went by Dino and Evelyn, and they are an awesome family. Evelyn loves reading, and likes reading with us. Dino is skeptical, but a cool person because he seems very open to the idea of finding the truth for himself. They are a family that will take small steps, but they are willing to take them. For a district activity we went to a store called El Mercado, which is basically like a hispanic mall, and thus the hat I tried on, and Elder Hanchett. Speaking of that, we had exchanges in the other elders' area, and they have it pretty rough. They once were finding a ton every week, but recently they haven't been. We went on exchanges and the people we talked to did not want to hear our message. It was pretty rough.My studies have also gone pretty well. We have been learning a lot, especially in comp study. I wanted to find all the doctrine of the Savior from the restoration, because too often the message of the Restoration is just a message about Joseph Smith, and not exactly centered on Jesus Christ, so that is my goal: making the messages about Him, because He is the one they need. I love you all and please keep us in our prayers.
