Hola Everyone!
So this week has been quick! I've really learned the importance of hard work from my companion Elder Redmond. We've been doing a lot of contacting and door approaches, but not a lot of it has been paying off. So it's been cool to see him just keep plugging along.

We also took another tree out of a potential investigators yard. It wasn't too big but it definitely paid off. It was a miracle really. They were kind of stand offish when we went over there at first, but then we asked if they needed any service, and they softened up. Now we have an awesome gateway in to their lives, to teach and uplift!
Apart from that, we went on exchange with the Moab elders, and I got to learn a little bit more about being friendly and getting to know people at door approaches.
But that's about it for this week. We really didn't teach any lessons to any investigators this week, so that was too bad. But we're searching diligently for more people to teach.
I feel like I should bare my testimony on diligence. A quote that preach my gospel uses is this:“I have often said one of the greatest secrets of missionary work is work! If a missionary works, he will get the Spirit; if he gets the Spirit, he will teach by the Spirit; and if he teaches by the Spirit, he will touch the hearts of the people and he will be happy. There will be no homesickness, no worrying about families, for all time and talents and interests are centered on the work of the ministry. Work, work, work—there is no satisfactory substitute, especially in missionary work.” That is sooo true! There is divinity in this work, god has asked that we be diligent. It's a commandment! I know it. This church is true, I love each of you.
Haha here are some pictures.

Me with my Tapioca pudding I made this morning! It reminds me of home.
