Helping the Living and the Dead

Harder to Find
this week was fun. i have found that our area is a bit different than my past areas. we have a bit harder of a time finding and when we seem to teach people they try to bible bash with us. haha! it is  a little frustrating. haha. also this week we have dropped a majority of our investigators and we are looking for new ones. we are also trying to go to new areas that we havent gone to before, the trick is finding close enough that the investigators can afford to go to church. we have met some great people but we will see whether they run from us the next time we go there. haha.
Helping with a Funeral
this morning we had a wierd experience... last week a member in our branch died. the philippino tradition is to have the body stay in the house for 1 week for people to come and see them before they are buried. so today our branch pres. asked us if we could help dress him in his burial clothes before they closed his casket... of course we helped out. it was wierd though.... we had to lift parts of his body up and put on the white clothes.haha.
A New Investigator

this week we also started to teach the daughter of a member. she is about 30. she is really open to the gospel. she has actually been an investigator for a long time we haven't taught her for a long time because she has been really busy with her job. she believes in joseph smith but she also believes that every church is true it just depends on whatever you like. so we have been inviting her to pray to know if this is the only true church.
