Well lets just say it was an interesting week! We have been visiting Nelson everyday this week! We found out that he has a big problem with the word of wisdom! He suffered this week with me! I took his marijuana away from him one day and flushed it down the toilet and then another day he had a can of beer and was going to drink it and I got it from him and he told me to dump it out right in front of him! It was a lot of fun! It has been a rough change for him but he is taking it like a man and making a lot of changes in his life! How he is now is completely different from how he was when we met him!! We have a lot of work to do with him this week but I know with our prayers he will be able to do it! Also this week we had a contest with some of the sister missionaries here in the zone because they are also leaders here. We started to see who could find more families in the week! It was a crazy competition both companionships ended up finding like 11 new families! It was awesome! Also in the zone we put are focus on finding new investigators and we found in total 157 and 42 families! It was an awesome week a lot of the other leaders in the mission couldn't believe that we had accomplished it but it was true and a lot of fun! We have a  lot of work to do but with the Lords help we will be able to do it! Pray for us and Nelson we really need it!
