Hello Everyone      This week was great ! We have found 10 new people to teach and 9 came to church ! It's been amazing. We haven't been able to contact our friend who is on baptism date, so we have been a little down about that. However we met with his wife which was a miracle because she hasn't been very receptive to us. Before we drove to their house we said a prayer asking for a miracle.

We work hard but so does satan. Benjamin can't read ...
