Elder Tyler Jones week 68

It's been another good week for us.

We talked to the Ramirez family a few times this week. They're still pretty excited to be baptized. We're still not exactly sure if the date will work out for them. We talked to the mom this week and had a kind of funny conversation. She was apparently talking to her sister about the temple this week. She was talking about how she would need to be baptized to go into the temple. Her sister told her that it was still a really beautiful building and that she could just walk around it from the outside. The mom was really proud to tell us about how she rebuked her sister and told her that she was going to go in the temple and that she wasn't satisfied with just seeing it. We've got a lesson with them on Tuesday to talk to her and her family about when they could be baptized. So hopefully all goes well with that.

They didn't end up coming to church this week. They went to a Halloween party that ended at 1:00 in the morning so it wasn't terribly surprising when they didn't wake up on time to go to church. 

We taught a lady named Veronica this week. It's the daughter of an inactive member. She's been feeling like she needs to come closer to god. Her son is into some problems and she feels like she needs gods help. We taught her a couple of times this week and both times they ended up going really well. So that's been going awesome.

We found a lady this week in the street. She was picking some flowers to give to her landlord. We talked to her for a little bit and she told us all about how her sister is a member in northern California and that she used to go with her a while ago and she absolutely loved it but she doesn't have anyone to go with down here so she hasn't been attending. She isn't a member yet but she wanted all of the reading material we could give her so we're going back this week to talk to her again.

This week was the primary program. It was super awesome. A couple of boys from the branch that were baptized serveral months ago got to participate in it.  It's was awesome to see them doing the program. They had little suits and everything. That was really awesome to see.

So it's been a good week
