This week was great! C called and said he was going to come to church and wanted to try meeting with us again! We were so excited!  It's great to hear that T's eagle project went so well! Send me some pictures of it! Did you get the pictures of me holding the monkey's hand? That's awesome that you and mom are speaking in Stake Conference! I think some things that have helped are family keep the Sabbath Day Holy are.....going to church, cooking nice meals, playing music together, doing our family scripture study, personal scripture study, taking a nap, doing home teaching, doing fathers interviews, (btw dad, you've got no idea how many times I bring those up when teaching people, I'm so glad you did those with us on a fairly regular basis)......some things I would add that I don't think we did often would be inviting non-members/investigators over for a meal, having a less active over for a meal, playing a nice game, scripture trivia games, going out with the missionaries.....that's about all I can think of! There is this awesome talk on the sabbath day I just read. It's called 'The Sabbath Day' by Mark E. Peterson from April 1975. It is awesome!! I recommend reading it before putting your talk together, although you've probably already read it because I feel like you've already read everything in the gospel library and most of LDS.org. Anyhow, Your prayers are helping! We just had a lesson with S again and we are going to be putting him on date for April sometime near the end of February. A is getting baptized on the 20th, is awesome, and he is going to start coming out with us to teach people! We just got him his own PMG today from the office. He is completely solid. Here's a list of our investigators that we're focusing on. A, A, M, C, D, R, and H. We're continuing to find lots more to teach every week! We have a goal of handing out 10 book of Mormons every week. Last week we gave away 16!! In any case, they do more good sitting on someone else's bookshelf than ours! Not anything really exciting happened this week other than this young mom we talked to. We were just about to walk by her, then we both turned around at the same time and started to talk to her! She looked like she was about to cry, so we just talked about how much God loves and cares about her and shared a scripture from the Book of Mormon with her. We asked if we could come back and she said yes of course, whenever we want! It's so cool how the spirit just works on people that are humble and have an open heart! Anyhow, love you tons!
