Well, hello there everybody... this week was a pretty good week... we
taught a lot of people and we found a lot of new investigators.   The only
problem is none of them came to church..... bummer... so WE were
disappointed!.. Going to find new ones this week...  Cathy still has the
same problems, Jermaine.
On Sunday we had Stake Conference that was broadcast from Salt Lake.
Elder Perry spoke and then right as Elder Eyring was getting up to give the
final, talk the connection went bad and we lost it.   So they are going to
print out the talk and read it in a couple weeks or so.  But I got a huge
miracle yesterday... Don called to ask me if he could give his dog a
blessing... haha!  That wasn't the miracle though, Don is meeting with
President Patch, the Stake President of Jax South Stake, this week to get
his temple recommend signed.  He asked me if I would take him through his
endowment session, and be his escort.  He doesn't know when it's going to be
but it will be on a Saturday most likely and very soon... I hope it is real
soon because we get transfer calls on the 13th and I am the closest to
Orlando in the mission right now so that would be real convenient.   But Don
said he would come pick me up anyways.
I am so excited and I hope President will let me go with them.  I love Don
and Liz so much.  Remember, he is the first baptism I had on my mission.
Anyways nothing else has really been happening.   We are having a hard time
finding new investigators,  so prayers would be nice.   I would greatly
appreciate it.
Love you all.

Sorry I am writing so late in the day.   We played soccer all morning and
then came home for showers and we just got to the library...

This week was crazy... we taught 270 lessons...  we found a lot of people
that might end up being way sweet.   We are still in the finding mode, 
though, but hopefully we will be seeing some miracles here in this next
week.

We were almost in this intense accident today.  Harrison was driving us to
go get smoothies after soccer: and all the sudden we hear this crash right
behind us and this car goes flying past us on the left and through
oncoming traffic,  off the road and ramps,  off a hill,  and lands
perfectly in a parking space.   It was nuts...it scared me to death...

We stopped and made sure everyone was alright and then moved on.... nuts
how close it was to us and we weren't even touched.

So, not a lot else happened last week.  We went to go contact a less active
family and it turns out they don't live there any more.   We talked to the
owner of the house and he apparently evicted them a long time ago.... and
when he did.... there was human poop all over the house.... it was
disgusting!  How can anyone be like that?
Anyways I am looking forward to any letters that I might be getting this
next week. Hint hint!  I  love you all.
