This week is "semana perfecta" which means we have to meet all the mission standards (27 lessons 35 contacts daily, 8 investigators attending...and more) We are waking up every morning at 5:30 hahaha it’s a blast!

This week has been really good! We had the most lessons that I have had in any other week in my whole mission....37! I personally think that’s pretty awesome haha and we also had 327 contacts which was great.

Well like I said last week we have some pretty great investigators that would be progressing but they have problems with the law of chastity....it seems like everyone here is married to someone who is not their legal husband or wife. We have had some really good lessons with M and V (la familia P) and with J L and A. Hno. P was supposed to be talking to the lawyer already for V’s divorce but hasn’t yet.

We visited JL and A last night and we put the goal that JL will talk to the lawyer tomorrow morning (since today is the first and everyone is on vacation).

We have been teaching a really cool girl named B. She came to church and loved it so that was really good. She wants to get baptized we just need to teach her a little more and she needs to attend and she can get baptized! 

First House in La Gomera

We are also teaching a girl named MC...She REALLY wants to get baptized. The only problem is with her dad. He’s a little bit against it. Her fecha is for this Sunday and she wants to do it but her dad says she needs more time. Her mom is ok with it though so I'm sure everything will work out just fine. We’re working really hard and so I know we will see miracles. For the semana perfecta our goal is to contact 50 people everyday...well that’s the goal for the rest of the change actually. So far we’re doing really good. I love Hna Neighbor. She is the best and she is the hardest working companion I have ever had. 

Second house in La Gomera
