This week has been great! The members here are so great. They're so kind and willing to help in the work, whether it's inviting our investigators to sit by them in church, or inviting us over for dinner on the fly, or coming to lessons that come up on the fly. They do so much and it's so great to be in a ward where the church members have such a desire to be involved with missionary work.
We've been sharing "miracles" with members a lot recently, For example, we had an experience on Tuesday where Elder Willets and I had 30 minutes in between dinner and several lessons that night and wanted to know where to go to find somebody who was ready to hear the gospel. We both prayed to know where to go and the same apartment complex came to mind, so we went there.
Then we prayed to know where to go in the complex, and biked around until we found a building that we both wanted to knock. So we go there and after 20 minutes, we knock into somebody who moved in recently and doesn't have a church to go to. We teach her (her name is Brianna and she has two adorable young kids) and set a baptismal date.
It's been fun to talk with members and get them excited about doing missionary work.
Love you all! Here are some pictures from the week.

| We did service helping with a fence for this lady, Sister Cheng. She was a movie star back in China and has some amazing stories. She also makes really good friend rice and egg rolls. AKA it's actually Chinese food, not Panda Express. |

| Left to right, a great member of our ward, Johnny, then our investigator Daniel, then us. This is usually what a lesson setting looks like, except here we got dinner together which isn't normal. |

| Yeah ok, kind of random picture, but in church, there was a member's ADORABLE son who's just learning to walk and he was playing with the camera on my iPad and took a picture of himself and you've got to admit that he's pretty cute. Right? Right? Ok maybe I just miss my little brother. |
