Are you too busy to hear?

   This week was pretty awesome! It was actually cold this whole week. It’s probably only 45 but it feels way cold just because of the humidity! It has rained every single day and has just been overcast. However, people still want to let us in even when it is pouring rain outside. The most common answer we get is, "I have already been saved". Or something like, "I already have my religion and I go to church every single Sunday". It’s funny how everyone says the same thing almost.

     One of our investigators had a baptismal date for the 9th but now she is moving so she said she will try to do on the 15th. It doesn’t really make any sense and that is a long story. All of our other investigators are slowly moving forward. We had 4 of them at church this past week so that was awesome! It was a scary having them at church on fast and testimony meeting because you never know what you’re going to get people talking about. We had people talking about miracles for a good half of the meeting so maybe that helped our investigators knowing that miracles are true! haha

      This week has been harder because so many of our lessons fell through so we were doing a lot of tracting! But that’s always a good time to try and go find new people interested in hearing more about the gospel. Texas is interesting because you either have people that are super nice that want you to come in and talk for 2 hours or you have most people that will just talk behind the door asking, "Who is it!?" Also everything is so spread out that we are always driving. Driving just gets boring listening to the same 7 church hymns we have in the truck all day long! haha Even though this week has been harder I know that this next week will be better because we have a lot of appointments set up for potential investigators! 

       I look forward to seeing what this next week brings! I know that as we try our best we will be able to find new people that are prepared! I also know that sometimes it’s easy to just say this person does not want to hear anything or he is too busy but really who is too busy to hear how they can live with their Father in Heaven again someday!

Love,
