This week has been great!

Not a lot of time to type this week, so I will make it brief, Elder Boynton and I had a lot of great fun, and a lot of success! Probably the highlight of the week was yesterday we taught a lady named Janet Colucci! Her husband is serving in the army in Afghanistan right now. She has a hard time believing in God and Christ. She really wants to believe, but has a hard time believing something she can't see. So we felt to teach her about The Plan of Salvation. How God has a plan for us, and how we can return to live with him again. She admitted that it all made sense and that it's something she could see herself believing. We told her the first time we met her that we were going to invite her to keep commitments and do certain things in order to believe in God. When we first said that, she was kind of taken aback and she looked at us like "what on earth are you going to make me do?" (Real thoughts going through her head). But we told her that all she had to do was to read, pray, and go to church she gladly accepted. Janet is an amazing lady and we are looking forward to seeing her progress!

This week will be another great one for sure. The Howells and Ray Rowell are all getting baptized and are just so excited to make covenants with Heavenly Father. What a blessing it will be in their life! Anyways, I hope ya-all are doing great!
