Not sure if this week was good or not. I think it was more good than bad though so let's go with that. This week we had a lot of success! Actually we didn't but we worked a lot harder so we felt better. We were always trying to find people and trying new techniques to help people. We focused a lot on serving people so we made a bunch of cookies and have been giving them to members that have helped us out or things like that. Then on top of that we've been praying super hard to have a baptism this month. Which meant that pretty much unless some miracle happened wasn't going to happen. But guess what God loves giving miracles when things seem impossible because we brought cookies to the Bishop here and we mentioned baptism in a prayer and he brought up a part member family who had a little girl who hadn't been baptized. We called them up and now we are baptizing her this Wednesday! They actually already wanted to baptize her but thought because of the Covid-19 they couldn't. We had called them on Saturday night and they even wanted to baptize her yesterday but they decided it wasn't enough time to let people know so we are doing it on Wednesday. I loved the wonderful way God answered our prayer. Another goal I made was to finish Jesus the Christ in 3 weeks which is very hard. Each chapter (there are 42 chapters) takes about 45 minutes to read but I love it. I've already learned so many things that I never even realized I didn't know. If you haven't read it and want to, I highly suggest it. Other than that not too much happened this week. We still played a lot of games and watched a couple of church movies. I hope you are all doing well. I'm always praying for you guys!
