finally an update!

hey guys... this is a quick update for spence... i forgot to write him last week... so i got nothing! (it was fair) anyway, so this week i asked him a couple of questions... here ya go!

i am doing great. i love training again. i have had so many experiences this last week. it is really crazy to open an area and not know anything about it. but it has been fun. well i will answer your questions first.
1. who are you teaching this week, and what are you teaching them? We are teaching a woman named gisela. she is so awesome. i had one of the best experiences in my life. she was being taught by the missionaries before and we were there to teach her. she said she was fine and that everything was going good. but after a while she told us what really happened. how she has been separated from her boyfriend for 3 months and that she is really liking it. i asked her if she has prayed about the BOM and she said yes. i then asked her if she wanted to be baptised. she again said yes. so i let her pick her date and everything. she is going to be getting baptised the 23 of auaust. she is awesome. we also just found a family well like 4 families last night that are all going to progress. they are such good people. i know that they are going to make the right desisions in there lives.
2. share with me a spiritual experience that happened to you this week. well last night when my kid and i were walking in the street i was explaining to him how we have to knock and find people be the spirit. i was telling him that the lord knows what we are doing and that we need to put all of our trust in him. right after that he told me this..."hey i don't know if this is a hunch of not but i feel like we have to knock that door back there." now we had competly passed this house but we went back anyway. a woman let us in and told us that she had been baptised when she was nine and that she needed help. she wants to come back to church and learn why the book of mormon is true. we were guided by the spirit.

dont forget to send him a hello (:
