NINE investigators!

Doing service with the Young Women
Hello everyone, I hope all is well. This week was just so amazing! We had our transfer calls on Saturday and we are both staying which we both knew was going to happen since sister Rawlings is still being trained. So we are on transfer two or phase two haha! Our district is changing so much though! We are now meeting in an even father location and we had two new teams of missionaries in our district. This week was so great the Lord has been really blessing us and we had 2 new investigators this week! and 9 of our investigators have baptismal dates! The Lord has really prepared His people it is so amazing to see that the field truly is white and ready to harvest! I love being part of the work of salvation and seeing how i truly am just an instrument in the Lords hands! I feel like Ammon when he is boasting about how great the Lord is to His people!
We had some really amazing lessons this week with our investigators and they are all just so great! On Wednesday we went and had a lesson with Charles and we were waiting for our chaperon and we were talking to him outside and he was with a neighbor. And so we go up and talk with them a bit and then our chaperon arrives and we asked his neighbor, Shane if he wanted to join us  and he was like ya what are we doing and we were like we are going to teach a message about Jesus Christ and His Gospel and he was like sure I would love to so we taught them the Restoration and invited both of them to be baptized and they said yes! And when we gave Shane a Book of Mormon his face just lit up! it was such an amazing experience and while we were teaching Shane was like I have always wanted to know more about God I just didnt know where to find it. So what it says in D&C is so true people are only kept form the truth because they know not where to find it. We also helped with young women's and it was the "amazing race" it was really fun and the Raymond girls came out to the activity and their mom stayed and did family history! They are such a great family! On Satruday we did service with the ward and we went to clean up a park and that was really fun but it was sad to see how much people litter. Two of the Raymods came out and helped it was so great to see them there! Then the Raymonds and Charles came out to church so that was so great! I love being a missionary so much! I love helping people and teaching them the Gospel! I hope everyone has a safe and happy week and that they eat lots of candy hahahah!
 
Love, Sister Gonzalez
