Hows it going?How's Kim...How's Tate?How's the summer in Texas?
On your mission did you always feel like you were doing well with helping others and with your own personal progress?
Lots of lessons learned and still in the prosses of learning in these last few weeks...I'm trying to stay positive and think of others...my companion is going through a rough time...I don't know if I've been helping him...I don't know if I'm capable of helping him.

These of from past weeks...I don't know if you got them?
Our top progressing investigator came to church this week. She is soooo ready to be baptized! They just need to get married and she needs to come to church 2 more times. She already has a testimony of the Book of Mormon. She knows the Church is true. She even said that she was "Mormon" in her class in college. We spoke about baptizm and the Eternal Marriage on Monday...and on Thursday we spoke about the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Something REALLY cool happened on Saturday night. On our weekly planning list we wrote down that we would talk to a part member family about Eternal Marriage and Family A Proclaimation to the World. Then we completely forgot about that when we taught them. What we were teaching them was still pretty cool. We were talking about enduring to the end and Eternal Life, and sharing scriptures. Then the husband brought up Eternal Marriage and why it was important. Elder Taylor just happend to have a copy of the Proclaimation to the World as well that we gave them. Things just worked out! I can tell that this husband really wants to go to the Temple with his wife!
This week was pretty fun. Sometimes challenging...but fun!
p.s. there was a Tornado yesterday! F1 we missed it!
