Elder Edholm -- week 87

Well I had a good week this week. We had a great time finding new investigators, going to a zone conference, and travelling way up to the mountains to help out the sisters in an area called Ocoa. I learned a lot in the zone conference though, I learned that when we teach the restoration and the Book of Mormon that we should always do it adjusting to the needs of the investigators. Explaining how the message of the restoration or the Book of Mormon is going to help them specifically in their lives.

We had a good showing this Sunday of investigators. There was this one family that actually brought another family to church that seems really interested. The guy lives in New York and his cousin is a faithful member. Also we're teaching this less active and his wife who isn't a member. They both came to church on Sunday, and the wife, Lili, explained how she's receiving an answer about how the church is true. It's really a huge blessing to see people changing their lives like that.

Also our branch mission leader York left today to do a mini mission. It's kinda sad because we're like best friends, and I'm pretty sure that I'll get transferred before he gets back, and we would always do intercambios together, but here's a picture of him and me when we went to a really far off area yesterday and had to go through the mountains.

Anyway, love you guys a lot! Hope the flood goes down!
