The Work Is So Good

Things have been going awesome up here in Burns Lake! We have been working so hard up here and have been literally running everywhere which has been awesome! Keeps me in shape!

To start off with the best of the best, Tom is so solid! He has been doing so well in progressing! He came to church this past week and we were able to teach him about the word of wisdom and he committed to live it! He is just so good! There’s a lot he does not know but he has already read the first 5 chapters of the Gospel Principles manual and has been reading the Book of Mormon pretty well! He admits that he does not understand it that well but is ready to go back and start rereading so he can understand it!

So Tom has been great and so has Megan! She is doing great! Progressing well, just has not come to church yet. She reads and prays though and we were able to get her a true friend this week which was great! They instantly connected and the member invited Megan and her family over for dinner sometime within the first ten minutes of the lesson! She is so good!

We have done a lot of finding this past week, which has been awesome! We were able to hit 140 QGC's which was even better! We worked so hard to get there! We literally ran from house to house and people have just been coming out of the woodworks which has been the best part!

God has been so good to us though! He has blessed us so much and the work just keeps on getting better and better! My new companion is Elder Lopez. He is such a hard working missionary! Pushing me to do better every day! Just keeps on getting better and better with him!
God's been so good though! The work is so good and Tom and Megan have been working out really well! Sure love and miss yall!

Love
