Did you know?

Why hello there family!
So i am having the hardest time trying to see ha ha They dilated my eyes and my pupils are so big. i look like a gecko! This week has been oober good. Things are on fire here. Its taken me 4 months to figure out what this area needed because when i got here it was so dead. we were only teaching like 14 lessons a week. THis week we hit 22 lessons. We are having so much fun. SO this week i was on exchanges with elder richins for 4 days. It was a total blast. Me and him get along like buzz lightyear and Woody, We went down with Brother Higdon on Friday to Scottsville and Had 2 of the Best lessons of the Week. First we saw a guy named Russ. He is absolutely nuts. He has spent over 20 years in a State penn on lock down becuase he has killed a few people. He is the one we got to take down all the bad pics he was drawing, well we taught him about the plan of salvation and he was so enthrauled. He had no idea where he came from, or why he is here, or even where he was going when he dies. We were inches away from getting him to pray for us. He stopped drinking and smoking, now we just have to commit him to baptism. i believe he could be baptized in September but he needs to be interview by an apostle. how cool would that be. and then the other lesson that we had was with Destiny. She is doing amazing. We taught her about the Restoration and she said that she would pray and read to know the truth. I give her 3 weeks and she will be baptized. Oh and while we were in Scottsville we went out to amish country and i got to hold a bapy racoon. it was so sweet. IT was crawling all over me. They would make good pets. ha but he took us shopping at the Amish store and baught us bread and fruit and vegetables. Lately i have been eating a lot of zuccini and peppers and tomatoes and potatoes. Sounds weird comin from me huh. i know but i love em now. So yesterday was fast Sunday and it was AWESOME. I still chickened out and Didn't bear my testimony but i was really good. We had 8 people in gospel Principles class the Priesthood lesson was really good. Half the time i don't even pay attention but i did this sunday. Destiny got up and bore her testimony. How cool is that. thats the first time i have had an investigator bear their testimony in church. Bishop had the Biggest smile on his face. After church we went over to Gary's house and gave him a blessing, and gave his son Casey a blessin as well and Gary started to cry and it was such a spiritual meeting we had with him. We are gonna teach his sons, Casey, jesse, josh and his daughter Rachel. They have huge potential for August as well. Keep the Lowery Family in ya'lls prayers, they need 'em. and then last night we set up two family mission plans with the Dunda's and the Coots. they are my two favorite families in the ward. Me and Brother Coots get along like Timon and Pumba. he is such a cool guy. but other than that this week has been fenominal. I love ya'll so much and im grateful im apart of this family. Ya'll are #1.
