Week 20

Happy New Year! Our new years was pretty mellow. On Saturday we worked until six and then our zone got together and bowled at the alley here in Folsom. After that we went to In'n'Out and then went to bed at 10:30, just like normal. eh. Sunday was a p-day, but we had six hours of church anyways, so we were pretty busy. And now today is another p-day! :)

Fourth ward sacrament meeting all the college kids were home from school and we had a testimony meeting... about Brigham Young University. It's crazy how many people from California attend BYU. It was great though 'cause we had an investigator there who is applying and was getting a bishop's interview for her "ecclesiastical endorsement." She's 17, does track and field, and she wants to attend for the high standards and the good track program. She's a golden investigator! E. Amos and I have been teaching her about once a week. She's awesome... she wants to learn and asks really good questions. It's refreshing to teach someone like that!

Our other investigators have been doing well. Eric is firm (has a baptism date) for the 21st. There is a lot of potential in him because his parents aren't members, and we hope we can teach them. It's great because they have family that are members and they're right in their ward to support them. We're seeing Katarina (17, can't get baptized until she's 18) tonight. We're going to try to set a baptism goal for February, when she turns 18. She's been "investigating" for 4 years, and attends seminary and reads her scriptures and everything.

Well, that's it for this week. Love ya!
