This week has been awesome.  We started out the week with interchanges and it was awesome.  We were working hard than at night all of our appointments feel through.  We just started contacting the houses right close to where we live.  We started contacting a house and a girl walks out to talk to us.  We started talking and then she stops and starts talking in English.  We were shocked - it was super weird - to have our contact change real quickly into English and both me and my companion were shocked and stuttering speaking English.  Tuesday we were able to go to the Temple!  It was the best!  Even though in our travels to get there Satan was really trying to stop us from going.  There were a bunch of things that happened that almost caused us to not go.  When we finally got there it was such a great blessing.  It was awesome to be able to be in the temple receiving revelation from God for how we can do better and how we can help our investigators.  There is no better place to be than in the temple.  It's really God's house and he really is there. Things are all getting better here in the area.  We are working our butts off here and even though we don't have any baptism dates we are teaching a lot of positive people that will hopefully accept baptism dates this week.  The Lord blesses us for our efforts.  It blows me away being a missionary and seeing all the miracles that God does during the week changing peoples lives.
