Biking marathon in 100+ degree weather.

We are trying to rebuild our teaching pool so we have been biking 20+ miles every day, and have been knocking a lot of doors, but didn't meet any people that were very willing to listen. 

We did have a lesson with Manuela, who has had a hard life lately and we haven't been able to go over and meet with her in a month. She texted us and said that she missed us and wanted us to come over. It was so crazy. She was a whole different person. She is usually sad, but she was smiling and laughing. We were like, "there is something different about you!" and she said she had been reading the Book of Mormon and watching the gospel library videos. It was so cool. We taught her the restoration and it was a great lesson. During the lesson I noticed a bunch of spoons, so I was able to teach using the spoons.  She really understood how Jesus Christ built his church with his twelve apostles and and how they were killed. At the end of the lesson we asked her to pray about it to find out the truth. When she opened her eyes, we just stayed on our knees and talked to her. She said "I feel like when I read the Book of Mormon, I'm in my own world with just me and God and that all the burdens are off my shoulders. It makes me very happy." When we asked her if she thought the Book of Mormon is true, she said, "Of course." We said do you know what this means? If the Book of Mormon is true, then that means that Joseph Smith was a prophet and Jesus Christ's church was restored to the Earth! Everything clicked in her head and she was freaking out. It was cool. She is a whole different person. It is such a HUGE miracle! 

Also this week we met this family with 6 kids. They are so cool. We are excited to see what happens with them. 

Things are going great here. I love this area and the Book of Mormon. Read it everyday. I have seen my life change and other's lives change because of the Book of Mormon. Sometimes the answers you get from the Book of Mormon seem so simple that it doesn't seem like it is an answer, but it is. Read it everyday, and your life will change. It's as simple as that!! 

Love ya'll!
