The work presses on! April 14 2014

 Well another week has gone by! Wow I sit back in my chair during my lunch hours and look back on how time has flown by! I went to a baptism yesterday for girls that my companion taught in another ward and I think back how when I was baptized how great that day that was! You know I remember baptizing my brother when he hit the age of baptism and I got to enjoy that day with him! Thinking about it in my family me, Lindeon and zach were not baptized by the same person but I believe that my other siblings were baptized by our dad! For those that are confused the me and the 2 siblings are from our side then the other siblings are are step siblings from when we combined families together which was awesome! But yeah anyway we are all buds! 
     So last week was a pretty nice week got allot done and just enjoyable! There was a day we went into a store to grab something real quick k well there was a guy that told us about him trying to meet with missionary before and they did call so we told him we would be able to meet him so he pretty much made his appointment and said to meet him at the star bucks. Well we agree to it then we get there and we find the glenmount ward mission leader there and I can tell you I'm grateful for him for being the cauz this guy just went off on that we didn't have true faith and that we need to have a relationship with Christ before anything and that there was no apostasy and he wouldn't believe us unless we showed him in the bible where it was and we told him we don't need to show him scriptures to believe because if we showed him he would bring up another scripture and then it would become an argument. So yeah the mission leader helped us out and got him under control. The guy said that he was going to pray for us to change our minds about it. But like elder holland says "we need to defend our beliefs". 
     Ok so yesterday we had a awesome member give a talk in our ward about how people are on ease about helping missionary's with less actives and referrals well after he expressed that it is important for ward members to help hasten the work and that they need to make an appointment with the missionaries ASAP and have them over to see how they can help work with the less actives and to help hasten the work with us. Well when I look at our meal calendar we have the the next 2 weeks full of dinner appointments! This is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    So anyway my last week was awesome! Can't wait to see what this week brings me!
 But with our investigators, Stephanie is hard to meet with since she's so busy with work and school so when I told you guys about her b date it's going to move but we will see when we can move it since we have to see when she can meet again.
     The Jamaican family we are progressing with them they are support great with reading the Book of Mormon and receiving the lessons even the kids enjoy the lessons. And I'm going to tell you we would have them on date but they are not married and the kids are both of theirs so we have to work on that to get them on date so yeah!
   
     So this morning we went to the sunrise to take photos and to see the cherry blossom festival! It was pretty cool I'll send pics! 

So how was everybody's week? I want to hear anything cool that's going on! What is everyone's plans for Easter? Mines to share the true meaning of Easter to others! 

Have an AMAZING week! Have a AWESOME day! I'll be on to email later around like lunchtime or so I'm not sure when yet I'm just enjoying DC right now


My tie decided to blow away when I was getting a pic but once I saw it so I didn't ask to take it again since I would feel bad since we were all hurting for breakfast
