This week went really, really well. We had some awesome lessons and some great spiritual experiences this week. The coolest news of this week was how we found our new investigator Chris. This whole week we have been joking with the Zl's saying that I have been reading the scriptures and feel like we should build a boat. So this whole week when ever they call and ask for an update we just give them an update on the boat we are crafting. So the other day, I missed the turn to see an investigator so I went to turn around and in the parking lot of this business is a little crappy wood boat, so I was like we should take some pictures and send them to the ZL's and I almost was like we can do it another day but then something said just do it now, so as we are setting up our cameras and stuff this guy on a bicycle stops and says hey you guys Mormon and we are like ya and we get to talking to him He is from Arizona and came here to get some stuff sorted out, so we set up a next appointment with him. We saw him the next day, had an awesome lesson with him and as he is praying he says he felt this crazy feeling and he had goosebumps all over, so that was really cool. So the morale of this story is that boats solve all problems and lead to new solutions. Another cool thing was that Yaimy came to church for the first time yesterday and she really loved it. She is from Cuba. She also accepted a baptismal date for September. We had 7 investigators at church yesterday and we had some really good meetings. Angie has her baptism set up for this Saturday so I am really excited for that. She is awesome and she made us home made empanadas Saturday and I loved them. I learned how to make them. I love Spanish food. She is from Honduras and she cooks for us every time that we see her. Its awesome, its like having my own taco bell but better. She is really solid. Yesterday, the interns Jordan and Margret cooked for us and it was really good.Tthey are awesome, love having them,Chris and Aubrey here. They have a blog if you want to see it- its Airhart.Tumblr.com yes tumblr is spelled that way. Things are really going good here I think we got momentum on our side. Elder McCready is an awesome teacher and a blast to serve with. SO long until next week, go and build a boat! "I'm on a boat, I got my flippy floppies, I'm on a boat!!"
