Yeah Saints...Finally! So this week was great...we played a prank on the ZLs...we had district meeting thursday at their house and then before we were done they had to leave...so once they were done we went into their room and uhhh rearranged their room...we put their beds together and made it look like one big bed...and in lue of feb 14th we put chocolates on the big bed in the shape of a heart...the blanket ontop was pink too HAHAHA....So that night they called us and told us that they thought it was funny........but their member didn't..they said their member had gone down into the room and saw what we did...they siad he had called President Ely and told him that he felt like we had broken his trust...They told us that President Ely had called them and was going to have to ET one of us out of the District but he was gonna have to pray about it...then while they were one the phone with us they said that he was calling them back and that we would talk in a bit.....5 minutes later they call back and tell Elder Green who is the current DL that he was getting transfered up to Laramie (outter darkness) with one of the companions that he had already had and that someone else was getting sent down with me....They played it off for a good 5 minutes untill they finally told us the whole thing was a joke and their member had never even seen the prank we played on them....They got us SOOOOOO BAD!... We taught a new investigator yesterday with one of the stake presidency their in one of the bishops offices before church...he said that he would be baptized...but we couldn't set a date because he has to work a few things out...but he stayed for all 3 hours of church and we're meeting with him again thursday...we also taught a family yesterday who we street contancted the plan of salvation with a member present and the family told us that they like having us over.... We have a bunch of progress happening in this area...lots of things are going well...LOVE YOU

We developed a new investigator this week who we street contacted last week.. we gave hime a book of mormon and he said that we could come back...so one week later we come back and teach him the restoration...he was very attentive and participated. He told us that our message was really cool and agreed to be baptized if he found out that it was true. He's coming to the church on thursday night for a tour and a lesson. We had to give him a new BOM because his girlfriend took his to her work to read at lunch break...bummer right haha! We have 4 solid new investigators...2 are a couple that we taught the 3rd lesson yesterday...they told us that they really enjoy having us in their home and he said that 2 weeks before we showed up he was praying to find a new church...They Lord Prepares him.I found ECCOs for $4!!!!! they're almost brand new! How's it going?Love you!

They're the ones I was talking about before...We bore our testimonies to them in the lesson we had after church and they said the lesson was Powerful...he said hed be baptized when I prays and finds that it is true. Much love from Elder Mak.
