This week was amazing. We had 15 lessons as opposed to our regular 8 or 9. We have found a number of new people to teach as well. We finally have J on date! He is a ten year old boy whose father was baptized 3 or 4 years ago and became less active and involved in Gang activity, drugs, alcohol, the works. He really wants to be worthy to baptize J. I am so excited for everything in this area! We are working with the Elders Quorum president to make Home teaching assignments for the Ward. There are about 20 people in the Ward that have home teachers. In working with the HPGL, we have given him assignments and he hasn't done anything. In making home teaching assignments his first question is "Who lives closest?" Doesn't matter if the person is less active or no one knows if they even live there anymore. So we are finally getting some structure to home teaching! I'm set excited!!! We are also trying to give callings and assignments to less actives, less active part member families, and new members in order to get them active. V, the girl we baptized last weekend, is already less active....there is no fellowshipping in the Ward at all. Please pray that our Ward members will have a real desire to live the gospel! We came up a list of 9 people yesterday with Bishop that we can rely on. These are the only people in the Ward that are living the gospel. Home teaching works. Living the gospel works. If people are not doing and have no desire at all to do either one or both of those they should consider having their names removed from the records of the church because that will just make it worse for them when they die. Anyway, love you all!
