I can't believe it is Christmas already! This year has FLOWN by! I really do think that this last year has been the fastest of my entire life. WOW!! Okay, anyway, we had a GREAT week!! We found EIGHT new investigators this week. That is fantastic, and more that I have ever had my entire mission.The first four are a family. They had met with missionaries about ten years ago, and then moved and didn't know there were missionaries here. SO lucky us we get to start teaching them again. We taught them twice this week. The first time we talked about the Book of Mormon and what that was and where it came from. We did a review. They didn't really remember much so the next time we taught them the restoration and that was GREAT!! Their son was there and he was really interested. He has a two and a half year old that he and his fiance want to get into church. GREAT!! He was really interested in the restoration, and he was talking to his fiance when she came in. She even seemed interested. We are going to go back and teach them again on Wednesday. I'm so excited! The other four investigators were found yesterday. We went out to Glenwood again to teach the SIX investigators that we got last week. Then Brother Griffith had another appointment for us!! GREAT!! There is a lady that has brought her neighbor to church twice and he wanted to learn more. SO we taught him and his dad and one of his friends. ALSO this ladies husband isn't a member so we get to teach him as well. PERFECT!! I'm so excited about Glenwood. I don't think it will be too long until they get their own missionaries so we wont get to go out there. BUMMERWell I think that is all the big news from this week. Oh also Carey was evicted from her trailer on Sunday, so we don't know where she is. She didn't have any plans when we saw her on Friday, and we haven't heard from her since then. We are going to find her and help her in anyway that we can. We had a GREAT!! week! I love being so busy!! However, that makes time fly and I don't really want time to go fast! I'm excited to call my family on Christmas, but the next transfer really needs to slow down!! YIKES!!LOVE YOU!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
