Hey Everybody!

Well this week was a lot better then last week for sure, we had a lot more appointments. Tuesday and Wednesday I was on exchange with Elder Phelps, in my area. We taught the Restoration like 4 times on Tuesday together. We got pretty good at it. We taught a couple who are in their 90's, that we have been teaching for about a month. we are trying to get them to be baptized, but they are kind of scared of baptism since they are so old. So we have been trying to help them overcome that fear. We also were able to teach Patricia she is the Dominican lady that has a baptism date.  Before you can be baptized you have to come to church 4 times. And so were starting to run out for her to get to church that many times before her baptism date.. We also taught the Restoration to a family of 5, the lesson went really well. We gave each of them their own copy of the Book of Mormon, and committed them to read and pray about it. They have a lot of potential and i think they will hopefully end up being baptized! cross your fingers ;)
We haven't been able to meet with Toni the last two weeks because he has been sick. We have an appointment tomorrow, so hopefully he is feeling better. I'm also going on another exchange with Elder Hunt tomorrow. wow lots of exchanges!
Its been pretty cold here lately! I've been wearing lots of layers. Its been freezing. Today it is raining :( ugh and we are basically going to be outside most of the day.. So I'm not really looking forward to that.
Yesterday (P Day) we went over to one of the Moorestown, NJ investigators house for breakfast with them. He made us french toast that was really good! And then we helped take down his Christmas lights. Then we all went back to our apartment and played a 4 hour game of risk haha.
Well lets see what else.. I'm on week 9 of 12 for my training so I'm almost not a greenie :) except they call us "Goldens" her not "Greenies" haha. But everything is going good her in New Jersey, just trying to be patient with everyone and trying to get all of our investigators a baptism date.. :)
As always i love getting letters from people, it makes my day a lot better :)
have a great week! Try to have a missionary experience this week! Share the gospel with someone!
