Hello All,

I don’t have much time but I wanted to let you know about some of the happenings this week. We found a new investigator this week. His name is Grant. We met him while tracting one night. He told us how he used to be religious but isn’t really anymore because he just "lost faith in religion". We told him about the great apostasy and how the original truths of the gospel have been lost. We went over a few days later for the lesson. We taught it on his doorstep. It went ok. He has a hard time with believing the miracles that Jesus performed but he said he still believes there is a God. He said he would read The Book of Mormon and pray about it so we shall see.

On Sunday we decided to bear our testimony to the brethren in Priesthood opening exercises about missionary work and pass out a member availability sheet. It was really cool and when we got the sheet back it was completely full. As opposed to last time we sent it around and like 3 people signed it.

Elder Beck and I have been trying our best to find new investigators and teach when we find. We’ve taught a lot of people who haven’t become investigators. Planting seeds. Everything’s going good here. I finished the book of mormon today and was really taken by Moroni 10:32-33. Being perfect is a commandment. That has never seemed to make much sense to me, but we CAN be perfect through Christ through His grace and by "denying ourselves of all ungodliness". How cool a message. A truth that has been restored. That we can change. We can overcome the things that bind us and we can put off our natural man. I love you all. Have a great week!

So this is the road we were biking on when the police chase came zooming by us. This is the turn he was coming up to going about 70 mph.

That's where he hit the fence.
