Finding the Lost

I believe the Torres’ is Lizhet’s family from prior e-mails.  Not a very long e-mail, but I really liked the story about the less active family they found.

This week was mostly focused on helping the Torres' out and teaching Jimena and Edward. Jimena has gone through most of the lessons by now, but hermana torres wants Edward to get baptized with her and it's harder to tell when he will be ready, so we don't have a date for the baptism yet. Many many things have been going on with that family right now, so we are really able to see the effects of Satan and his whole not wanting them to be baptized and reactivated, but hermana torres is super pumped about getting back in the church, and for the first time I have seen a true desire from her to get back on the path, which is super awesome. 

Something else cool that happened this week is we found a less active family that had disappeared off the map for a long while, we decided to go to where they used to live and ask the person there if they knew where they were now, and they did. They gave us the address and we went down there. It was super cool because she let us pass in and she told us that just the day before she was talking with her husband that she had a feeling that the missionaries would come by the following day. And that's exactly what happened, so it was pretty cool, I blessed their house and they said they would start going to church again. 

That's about all the memorable things that happened this week. I got to know elder Clifford more, he's super cool, from South Jordan Utah, plays basketball 19 years old and Idk what else yall want to know.
