Progressing Investigators

Joseph's letter from July 28 (Yes I am way behind)

Hey Family,
                 This week has been good! First off my mom asked how many progressing investigators we have. Well we have one or two. One is super legit and really wants to learn the gospel. His boss at work is the branch president. His only hold up is his girlfriend doesn't want anything to do with religion. The other legit guy has read though 2 Nephi in the Book of Mormon. Unfortunately he left for vacation on Friday and won't be back till the middle of August. Tuesday this week we had district meeting. It was all about baptism invites and overcoming the investigators concerns. After district meeting we went on exchanges. I went with Elder Bell in Mountain View. We started by just talking about the area then Nash came over and we did some studies with him then we went and saw Jay. He is a super cool guy that is going though a lot of hardships right now and I know the gospel will really help him. We then went over to Pres Woods to talk with him and help him finish cleaning his old house. On Wednesday we exchanged back and then we went and saw Doug. He is the second guy I talked about that went on vacation. On Friday we drove around to go see some less actives. One said she didn't want any thing to do with us and the other said she just got out of the habit of coming to church but still believes its true. It was a good day but we used a lot of miles. Then on Saturday we had an appointment with Donovan. He is the first guy I mentioned. But he had some things come up. Sunday we had a great church service. In sacrament the speakers talked about their conversion stories. Some of them were really funny but spiritual at the same time. Then in gospel principles we talked about eternal marriage. It was really good. After church we saw this guy named Matthew and Bojan. This morning were transfer calls and my companion is getting transferred. 

                 That is about it for my week. Not too much has happened. Thanks for all you do and I hope you have a great week!
