Momma,
So this week we found some amazing new investigators! We found a family! Well almost a complete family haha, the mom said she would join us the next time we teach. So about 2 weeks ago this guy came up to us and asked us why we were here and everything (we get that a lot since we are two white girls together haha). But we talked to him and asked if we could visit him one day and he said yes. But inbetween us taking to him and actually having a lesson with him, he went to our baptism and went to church! Then finally we had a lesson with him haha! And it went SOOO well! Our ward mission leader who got home from his mission about 8 months ago came with us and we taught the restoration. This spirit was SO strong and also he introduced us to his sister and nieces who were all really interested. They accepted coming to church this sunday and reading the book of mormon and they are just super nice! Gosh i love being a missionary! I have been praying SO HARD that they will progress. We have another lesson with them tomorrow so we will see what happened in their prayers also!

And to answer your question mother... SO MANY PEOPLE. We are teaching tons of people everyday! I cant keep track anymore! This area is progressing like crazy and we cant keep up haha! But yes i have been trying to write in my journal more haha. I slacked off for a little in my other area but i repented and am doing better.
And... ELDER BEDNAR! Wow we had such an amazing meeting with him!!! It was just our mission and he didnt hardly talk at all... It was like a conversation hahaha! It was so amazing! He asked us what we have learned and just kept going with the questions. He talked a lot about listening to whats not being said and also talked a lot about the principle of agency. I wish i could write down everything i learned but it would take forever haha! I did take notes though so in 8 months ill fill you all in haha. But it was amazing and the spirit was SO STONG! It was super weird hearing someone speak in english and let alone use words like stupid and dumb and things like that hahah! I laughed super hard. Hes a funny guy!
This next week should be good as well. We have interviews and have to go to Piura on thursday so itll be a super busy week to make up for that time were going to miss!
Well i love you all SOOO much! This week go share the gospel with someone! There are so many people out there that dont understand what theyre missing out on! This gospel CHANGES lives!
Thanks for everything family! I love you all TONS!
Love,
Hermana Lauren Jane Mitchell
