Investigator Updates

Hey all,
Hope all is well!! Today was really sweet!! We are talking with some incredible people!! They just have the greatest desires to follow our Savior and it brings me great peace in knowing their desires!!
Trisha is continuing to come to church and follow the gospel that she knows. As we teach her she follows the commandments by keeping her commitments and because she is changing and following the gospel, she is opening up her ability to utilize the atoning sacrifice of our Savior. Every time we go over we can see that change and the happiness that is brought to her!! It is the coolest!! She really teaches me how to be myself. She is so fun and as a missionary I am most effective when I am just that. When I can bear testimony of the joy and happiness this gospel brings. It really is the foundation of our testimonies. That God sent His son out of love, to satisfy the eternal demand of justice. That we may experience the joy there of! It is a cool principle and one Trisha of anyone has really helped me with.
Miss Eunis Jones... IS AWESOME!! Hahah she is a so genuine!! She can feel the Spirit so quickly. I really have tried to work on that and Miss Jones just tells me how it is done... Read the scriptures, pray with intent and faithfully, and attend church with a broken heart and contrite Spirit. She has been a super example of that to me!! I can't believe all that she has done to commit herself to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Wow she just is awesome!! She reads every night, prays every night and goes to church not because we told her to, but because the Holy Ghost has bore witness to her spirit of the narrowness of the gate and the straightness of the path. What a faithful daughter of our God!
Charles has come back!!! He is so cool!! He reminds me a little of myself only 700 times cooler!! He is just so sweet, he committed his friend to coming to church haha! And he wants his friends to hear the gospel and everything! He just needs to hear it and take it in for himself first haha. He is running before he can walk. What is truly so cool about teaching Charles though, is I just see the greatest missionary out of him. He just has so much spunk, determination and desires to do his best. That's all the Lord asks and the Lord really needs a lot of people more like him. Determined and driven people. You find a lot of successful people in the world just because they did what they had to do because they kept the commandments and did what they had to, to follow them.
Dang I am out of time again!!! Sorry, We are also teaching a young man named Rocky, George Alverez, Bambi, Mike Gonzalez, and Ester Griffen. They all are incredible!! I love y'all I know that there is by no other means can we attain happiness throughout this life and the next, except we follow the commandments!
