What in the world is going on here!

Things are just going WACKO for me right now! I don´t know what it is but the weeks are just going by really weird.

The start of this week was a major bummer. Petronio is really driving us crazy now. (By the way I will start writing names now). He is one of the most stubborn people I have ever met in my life. He thinks that the Church is judging him for not being married by paper, which if you know the story of Moses, you will know that it is a Commandment of God to be married this way. He keeps saying that Jesus Christ will save everyone no matter what they have done. And that he doesn´t need to be married, so he thinks he is not committing sin. So he thinks the Church isn´t excepting him because of it. But after a while of speaking Fire to him. We were able to convince him by reading the Bible that Christ taught about the sin of Divorsion and also the sin of Fornication. So he knows that he is sinning now but now he is justifying that sin. He thinks that a sin is only something that makes us feel bad, but does that mean a Cereal Killer isn´t sinning because killing makes them feel good. No. Then after more talking he finally told us that he wasn´t reading the Book of Mormon. Now we know why he isn´t excepting the Book of Mormon and the Church. There we go. I think we´ll be able to start helping him now. So it looks like things are turning for the better for him now. So we will start visiting weekly to read with him and study it with him and his family more and help him gain a testimony of it.

We had another investigator but we lost her due to the fact that she got carried away in something else that gave her ´´Peace`` so she thinks she doesn´t need the Church in her life, we had her Baptism marked to as well. So it was kind of a bummer. But we have two teenagers that we passed in the road who actually talked to us about wanting to be baptized so we are going to help them with that and we have dates marked for that.

Other than all of that, I think that´s all for this letter. Hope you are doing great as well. I pray for you everyday and I want you to know that when you are feeling lonely, know that you are never alone. You have the Holy Ghost, Christ, and Heavenly Father with you and also my Spirit will always be with you! Tchau!
