Mom, I love you! This last week was spectacular. Later at night we tracted into this 45 year old lady. She was disabled (b/c her spine had not been connected to her tailbone and her top half was separating from her bottom and she had surgery to fix it, but now she can't really work) and said she'd spoken with missionaries before but had stopped because they wouldn't give her a straight answer about anything, so she was a little hesitant to sit down with us. Turned out she just had simple questions like, is there any evidence at all of Book of Mormon times and people, and where the gold plates are now. So we discussed it for a minute and then spent some time discussing faith and the restoration. The other missionaries (way back in 2002) had never taught her the restoration! We went over it briefly and discussed the apostasy and emailed her the timing of the restoration talk. She's going to get baptized. I know it. We also taught Edward! We Tracted into him a few weeks ago and after talking for a bit and he said he wasn't really interested til the spirit convinced him to meet with us. It fell through and weeks later, now, we randomly swung by and they let us in! Turns out his girlfriend is a less active member that wants to start going back to church. And she's been trying to get him to come for a while. We talked with them about what life would be like as members of the church and tried to teach the restoration. It was really frustrating. The spirit wasn't there for a number of reasons. Ah well. I have a testimony of tracting! The Lord is ready and willing to put his prepared children in the path of his prepared servants, that are out doing their best to find the Lords elect! I love this church! IT!!! IS!!!! TRUE!!!!! The only true church on the whole earth. I love the gospel. It is the only way we can return to our Father in Heaven. I love you all!

So, this will be my last time writing everyone as a full time missionary and representative of Jesus Christ. I'm sorry I haven't emailed everyone as much as I should've. Time just flies. Let me just leave you with my simple testimony. Jesus Christ is the Savior and Redeemer of the world. He is a glorified and resurrected being, and stands at the head of His church. Joseph Smith was the prophet foreordained before the creation of the world to restore the gospel to the earth. I know these things for myself, independent from any other person. I love you all!
