Week 86 (June 23)

This week went by suuuuper fast. Every week is passing faster than the last! It's getting quite scary!  This week we met quite a  few new people. We spoke to TONS of people had a lot of rejection once again, people that don't even want o hear about our message or even pay a visit at church (here its really common for people who dont want anything to do with you or anything to still do a visit just to appease the Lord and then never want to hear form you again).

But with all this unusually tough rejection we´ve had some successes. The woman who went ot church with her daughter last week are preparing themselves to be baptized this next Saturday!
She is a woman of a lot of faith! She stopped drinking coffee without even knowing why! We didn't have enough time to explain the commandment cause we had to get home by 9:30 (which we did by the way, I havent completely lost my ability to sprint!!). She went 2 days without drinking it while waiting to find out why! That's so awesome!!

Elder Jackson is a great companion! We always have a lot of fun. He talks a lot more than Elder Helms and so I feel like I've gotten to know him a lot better already.

Our mission is really close to beating our record for baptism this month! The old record was set before the new rules for baptism were made (meaning it was easier back then) but even with the new rules we only need 40-ish baptism this next week and we´ll break it! The mission took over 300 people to church this past week, which was also record breaking and so our baptism outlook for next week is looking pretty good! We´re trying to beat 186 (the most in 1 month ever) but really going for 231(our goal as a mission).

I'm really excited to try and do better contact this week and have more success and we knock doors and talk to everybody we see on the streets.

Hope you all have a good week.

Miss you all and hope you all have a good experiece this week to strengthen your testimony of the restored gospel!
