Elder Kartchner

Everything went well this week. Our average number of lessons has dropped to 30 but we will get it back up. Everything is going super well, and changes are Wednesday. No idea what it will bring but we will see. We are working on the new investigators. For some reason we have trouble finding the investigators we have and the new investigators are coming slowly but we are working on it. We will see more baptisms before the end of the year here. It's great to see the fire that Marcos has. It's the fire that comes with true conversion. When we are really converted we see the worth of the gospel in our lives and we have an insatiable desire to take that to the others that are near us. It make me happy to see that in Marcos. It tells me that i am doing my job.

It is a little weird. I normally am looking to changes with a mix of fear and anxiety but for some reason I don't have that anymore. I think it is that I am coming to trust more in God. I have the faith that what happens in the changes will be His will and all I want to do is what He wants me to do. It's funny what happens when you come to trust God.

I love ya tons and thanks for writing as always. I look forward always to your emails and hearing from you and all that's going on back home. Happy birthday Papi and I'll talk to you next week.

Love Elder Brown
