yea go Joe

Hey Family
                    This week has been really good. Nothing exciting or out of the usual has happened though. On Tuesday we had a district meeting. My companion is district leader. He talked about how we need to find more investigators and ways in which we can find people to teach. It was a very good district meeting and he challenged each companionship to find 7 new people this week. 7 doesn't seem like it would be hard to do, but the way the district has been doing, it was a good goal. That evening we went out teaching with a member in the ward named Bro. Devaux. He is a really nice guy but he always tells us that the perfect investigator has 3 qualifications: 1. they have a job, 2. they have a car, and 3. they play the piano. Well we don't have many investigators who qualify for all 3 of those. He took us to dinner, then we went out and saw some people. Then on Thursday we went out teaching with another member named Bro. Siller. We went and visited Mallory and had a great lesson with her. We also went to go see some other less actives. Then he was hungry so he took us to go get food. It was lots of fun. This week we went out on bikes lots during the day. Because we cover such a big area we use all of our miles pretty fast. On Sunday, we had Derek and Sheleta come to church. Also about two weeks ago we went to Malvern to go visit some people and we met this less active couple named the Nutt Family. Well they have been coming to church for the last couple of weeks so that is awesome. Also on Sunday we had an appointment to go see this couple named Ryan and Stephanie. We texted them making sure we were still good to come over and they said that they had moved to Little Rock. We are going to see if the Elders in Little Rock will go and visit them and keep teaching them. Sunday night my companion calls every one in the district and gets their numbers for the week. It turns out that we found the most and we only found 6 new investigators. I guess we will need to work on finding still. 

                       Thanks for the package this week mom. Hopefully you can get the whole 3 month thing worked out. I will send some pictures next week. Thanks for the addresses  Hope you all have a great week
