Don't let the bed bugs bite. Or do... Whatever

July 20, 2015
"What a great week! We had a great week! We have really been trying to see our investigators a ton each week because in preach my gospel it says we should have daily contact with our investigators! DAILY! So we were able to see R 5 times this week! It has been awesome! Every time we see her we can see her testimony grow a ton! We can see her growing in the gospel. She understands everything we teach, she is reading the Book of Mormon. She Loves the Book of Mormon! Awe she is so awesome! We are so excited for her to be baptized. Everytime we visit her she tells us "I'm very excited to be baptized on August 8" or anything mentioning her date which is super awesome that she has that in her mind all the time! And it has really paid off! She came to church! Whoo!
We picked up someone new this week her name is K! K is super cool! When we found her, she had just been in the bathroom crying because she got in a fight and she was texting someone from her church saying that she was done with God. Then we knocked. She told us that it was like God telling her not to give up. I know we were definitely led to her that day. We taught her a quick lesson and she accepted a date! We were able to visit with her 4 times this week! She is super cool and has a lot of faith! She understands everything that we teach her and has had a bunch of questions! We actually got to meet her boyfriend the other day and he said he would be interested in learning more! So we are really excited to teach him with her! The only problem is that she is very involved in her church so pray that she will be able to gain a testimony of the Book of Mormon because hat is key!
Other highlights this week would be that J also came to church! It was crazy to have them both there but it was super awesome and I'm sure they now feel less uncomfortable being there! 
This week we had a lesson with S about the word of wisdom and she told us that she wants so stop everything so she gave us all of her addictions and she has faith that she will have to strength to avoid them! 
We have been so blessed to be working with the investigators that we have! They are progressing so well and it has just been another wonderful week!
In other news, our apartment is infested with ants and possibly bed bugs.. I have tiny bites everywhere so it is getting sprayed today. (Hence the title) 
Thanks for everything! I love being a missionary! Everyone should try it ;) *cough* member missionary work *cough*
