March Madness

Hey,
How is it going? Sounds like things are going good. So March Madness is coming up. I am sad I am going to miss it but it is O.K. because I won't miss next year, and I have the rest of my life to watch sports, but only one more year to be a missionary. This week was a good week, we went and did some tracking on Saturday. We tracked a small street at one of the NHAs, and it was kind of cool because every person we talked to said we could come back except one. That never happens but those were just the people that opened their doors. I guess we will see how serious they are when we go back to see them this week. It is amazing how much having a good attitude makes on missionary work. I have had comps with good attitudes and bad attitudes, and the ones with good attitudes when I go tracking with them we always seem to get more people to talk to us. I have also gone tracking when I have had a bad attitude and haven't seen very good results verses when I have had a good attitude. We do have a baptism coming up this week on Saturday. His name is Bashony, he is a 10 year old kid that we have been trying to get baptized for awhile. His parents are members, and are not very helpful. We have had a interviews set up 3 times. They have ditched out every time but this time should work out. Well I got to go so I will talk to you later.

HI

Hey
How are things going? Anything new? This week was a good week. We got a new investigator named, Sherman, and he even came to church, so that is pretty cool. We should have some baptisms coming up on the 20th of March. One of the them is someone named Diane Morgon, and we also have someone named Boshony. That is pretty exciting! We have an investigator named Lynn that is being baptized on May 8th. She is way solid, and even bore her testimony yesterday in sacrament meeting. She is waiting until May to be baptized, so her and her 7 year old daughter can be baptized together. This week we found this waterfall that everyone has been telling us about that is in our area. It was way cool. It is probably 150 ft high so it is a pretty cool area. Then there are cliffs around it that are like 400 ft high, it is pretty crazy. I will send some picture of it sometime. We also had zone conference this week, and it was on the doctrine of baptism, and finding the elect. It was way good. So you met someone from Shiprock? That is pretty cool. We are only like 25 miles away from Shiprock. That is where we have district meetings. Well thanks for everything, and I will talk to you later.
