Well, this week was a little more desirable than last week.
We've been working with the ward council members; working to visit those whom they would like us to visit. It's been going alright so far. We went to visit this one less active family and found out they have two children who haven't been baptized, yet. (Megan, 18, and Logan, 9) However, neither of them is really interested in learning about the Gospel. However, when we mentioned cub scouts, Logan perked right up. He's excited to go. This might be an in. We're still trying to figure out Megan, though.

Also, we've been finding rather interesting ways to
intro/teach certain principles to kids in a way that keeps their
attention. For example, I recently taught the importance of Scripture
Study, Prayer, and regular Church Attendance by juggling. Each ball
represents one of them. by juggling 1 or 2 balls in a 3 ball pattern it
looks incomplete. So, too, are our lives incomplete when we don't do
those things. Another example would be that we once used the Three
Little Pigs (non-Shakespearean version) to show the need for a sure
foundation. We're getting creative.

Oh! Guess
what...We got RAIN!!!! The first rain I've seen since March 1st with
the Cultural Celebration. There was just one problem...Shortly before
the rain actually started, there was a bit of a dust storm. (See
attached picture) It wasn't huge, but it sure made the car dirty. I was happy nonetheless.

Mom: Back
off? Why would I do that? Practically every time anyone asks me how
much time I've been out, I tell them I've been "out here" for about 19
months, now. (No, it's not lying.) They comment on how I'm coming down
to the end, and I respond by telling them that I still have some time
left and I intend to make use of it. I have no intention of going back
on my word.
------------------------------------------------
Other than that. Not much to tell. We're still working hard, and we're starting to see results. Hope you all are doing well. Until next time.
