Hello everyone!

This week was absolutely amazing! Me and Elder Stout started the week
with few investigators so this whole week we've been finding. And we
found some pretty amazing people!

Ezequiel and Jeisi are band new from Mexico and they've only been here
for 1 month. We met Ezequiel the other day and he didn't let us in
because it was a little late but he said that he would if we came
back. Well he lives in the basement of a member and we challenged that
member to invite him and his wife to church and they did! Ezequiel
came with his wife and stayed for all 3 hours. Afterwards we met with
them and invited them to be baptized. They are on date for May 7th!!!!
We're meeting them this Tuesday and we're super excited!

Pedro is a man that we OYMed a couple of weeks ago but we never could
find him after that. We saw a man walking him with his son the other
night and it was dark so we weren't able to recognize that it was
Pedro until we talked to him. He told us to come back in the afternoon
and we did yesterday. He was home and we taught him the restoration at
the door step. He didn't say much the entire time but when we invited
him to be baptized he said "pues sí." Which pretty much means "of
course." He didn't accept a date because he was leaving and didn't
know when he would be back but he told us to come back next week.

Bernardina is a woman we met the other day as well. She is a
Pentecostal convert and was a Catholic until she read the bible and
decided that the Catholic Church wasn't true. So we pretty much told
her to read the Book of Mormon and that she would love it. We saw her
again yesterday and she was in a lot of pain from a recent surgery so
we gave her a blessing of health. She doesn't have a baptism date yet
but we're going to invite her this Tuesday when we see her again.

This week was amazing and I can't wait to see what happens this week!
We have 5 lessons today and hopefully we'll be able to pick up some
new investigators.

Hope everyone has a great week

Elder Austin
