LEWIS
We aren't even Zion, we are eternal. We've blown right through the expectations of unity. This lady is the coolest person I've ever been blessed to be around. We have more investigators right now than I've ever had and we have a momentum pushing us here in Nashua that is unbreakable. This will be an amazing week!
TRUST
Trust me, I'll start taking better tabs on what we do so that I can report back to you with a little more detail. Trust that your prayers are being heard. Trust that God knows what you need. Trust that people need you every day.

Back in Revere there is a friend named Jack. He is one the best people I've met; kind hearted, service oriented, funny, ok HILARIOUS, and very nice to missionaries. He took good care of me while I was there and he's taken fantastic care of the elders, being their protector/provider while they are away from home. He's a detective and a bomb awesome one at that. He's not interested in joining the church and rarely lets us get in a good lesson amidst the fun of eating delicious steaks and learning unforgettable life lessons. It's sad how much time can be lost when we spend our time with people that we love who chose not to follow Christ. After my mission I will come back and see Jack and spend all day talking to him. I'll bring him food and return all of the favors that he's done for me. But right now I have a very limited time to fully dedicate my time to people who are searching for God but don't know how to find him! And when I'm doing just that, I am having the best time of my life. Today in the car one of the Elders asked how someone can have fun doing missionary work, because he only has fun in between doing things like we did with Jack. WHAT?! I told him that I love this work more than anything I've ever done. It is fun!! Am I crazy? Or am I onto something great?
