Hey Family,

This week was an amazing week we were able to get a lot accomplished. It was a good week we were able to attend zone conference and to be edified and uplifted by the spirit. it was truly amazing. the big focus was to receive revelation, and aligning our will to God's will. It was great i learned a lot and how the spirit works through the missionary's and through the prayers of faith. It was truly amazing. this week we also were able to witness some amazing miracles in our area. so on Thursday night we had planned to go and visit an investigator and while we went by, he wasn't home but his brother in law and his wife were there and the let us in and they had said that they were just talking about Joseph smith and that the brother in law was super interested in the church. so we ended up teaching the message of the restoration and about all that good stuff that is in that as well. he just kept saying that he recognized that change in his families life and he wanted that in his. so we gave him a book of Mormon and committed him to read and to pray about it and he did and they are just super awesome and solid. half way through the lesson the original investigator got home and automatically started to help us teach him, we were blessed for this, it is going to help them both so much and to help the one develop a testimony and the other recognize that he already has a testimony. So we also went on exchanges with the assistants as well it was great we both had some success and it will be great to help this area continue to prosper a little bit. We are having great attendance at church we had 5 investigators attend church yesterday and we have return appointments up to ying yang for this week so we should keep pretty busy. This week has definitely been the best week that i have had here in Lafayette and i hope that the streak will continue to help us.  the gospel is so true! i love being able to see the changes that it has made in others life and also in my own life. i am very grateful for the blessing that i have been able to have to serve the lord everyday. i love this work and the joy that it brings into my life and the lives of others. i hope that you all have a great and amazing week I love you all!
