Update On Monday, June 16th, 2014

This week was ROUGH! On Tuesday, it hit 107 degrees. We were on bike this week! It was so hard! I'm pretty sure we both got heatstroke haha. I filled up my water bottle at least 7 times and I didn't pee at all that day. It was super terrible, I just remember screaming while I was on my bike and Elder Patterson had a hard time staying on his because he was laughing so hard! We got to a potentials house and knocked on the door and then we both just started laughing! I choked on my gatorade and it shot up my nose and it was gross and it burned, and Patterson was on the ground dying and it was terrible. We had only been working for like 4 hours! So we decided that we needed to go back to the apartment and rest. Wednesday wasn't as bad but it still sucked pretty good haha. Just a ton of tracting and no success. Thursday was also pretty dumb, weekly planning is never fun! Especially when your in an area where you don't know where you are going haha, poor Elder Patterson had to show me!

Friday was sweet, Friday we got two new investigators and set them with baptisimal dates on the first lesson because we are Bosses! It was pretty sick, not gonna lie! Their names are S. and R. It was fun! I enjoyed it, and the fact that it was night time and therefore not as hot was a prety solid bonus! That is one of the things we have been really trying hard with is to invite people to make that covanent on the first lesson. So it was a cool miracle to be able to do that! Saturday was also pretty good, we just picked a street and knocked every single door on it, we found 5 potentials that sounded really interested, unfortunatley nobody could talk to us at that moment because they were watching the world cup! I was so jealous!!!!!!!! Its ok, with our investigator B. we are going to teach him today, and he just so happens to have lost his remote so its stuck on the sports channel and the US happens to be playing at the same time we are teaching.....hahaha people love me, I dont know why but they do.

Saturday and Sunday were basically the same day, just tracting and trying to find potentials, we had a bit of luck when B. came to church. He is still on track to be baptized next saturday, we are a little worried about his girlfriend J. On tuesday she told us that she doesnt want to know if the Book of Mormon is true anymore, her parents have been giving her a lot anti mormon stuff and it worked. She is now extremely against B. getting baptized but he is doing it anyway. B. has been investigating for a year and a half and the only reason he isnt baptized yet is because he was on parole. So he is ready, he just needs to keep the law of chastity! Which we had J.'s help with that, but now we are worried that she will stop helping us because she wants to keep him from being baptized. So ya we are praying for miracles!!

Other than heatstroke, and crazy people, and me only knowing how to door contact in Spanish this week was great! It was weird I got like 3 letters....I think that is a record for the week!
