This week was another great week! We were finally able to contact a recent convert man and his less active wife. Turns out, she is the daughter of a husband a wife that is less active in the Spotslyvania ward! I tried to contact them for 6 months! She is much more willing to make a change in her life. She said that her parents are very hard to get a hold of. Especially if your from the church. We were able to talk about the sacrament and the importance of that ordinance. Many recent converts get confused as to the main reason why we go to church. It's to partake of the sacrament. It is the MOST important thing that they can do on a Sunday. We bore testimony of the words found in 3rd Nephi 18 as well as the Moroni 4 and 5. It was a spirit led lesson that ended with them committing to come to church everySunday

There is a companionship that is really struggling. They are having a hard time finding motivation and a drive to work. President Wilson has asked Elder Neumeyer and myself to go out with them for the day. Their area is about an hour and a half away... So it will be a drive! But we are looking forward for the opportunity to help these great missionaries. Just gotten help them get back on track.

We dropped some missionaries off at the airport today. Well... we went inside and helped them get their bags checked, and then walked them to the terminal. The look on those missionaries faces is priceless! they are in such a daze! They are always talking about how they think they are in a dream, and then they are going to wake up and be back in their apartment... Nope! Their time has come! Gotta make every second count!

I love serving a mission! Its the best! It's crazy to think of how many missionaries there are out in the world! All over the world too! Like Ukraine! Chile! Brazil! and even Florida! haha It's such a blessing to serve with missionaries. Especially those who are in foreign lands... yes, the south is definitely a foreign land!

Love you all!
