Hello family!
Well another week has past away and another to look forward too!! This past week was a great week. The investigator we are teaching is progressing very well her name is (name withheld), she is still looking forward to the 29th of September for her baptism so we are excited for that! She is a very knowledgeable girl and has such a great desire to receive the gospel!

This week was our Stake Conference. Elder Payne and Elder Zwick of the 70's came because the Stake Presidency for St. Paul stake was getting reorganized. Me and Elder Abbott had to go translate for the Saturday night session. It was a great session, Elder Zwick is a great guy and a very good speaker. We got to meet him after so it was really cool! but the sad thing is....the Hmong Branch President (he is white) he got called to the new Stake Presidency so he isn't the President of the Hmong Branch now. It was super sad because I like him and I thought he would be there my whole mission, but I guess the Lord works in mysterious ways that's for sure... the Stake Conference was really good and very uplifting.
This week I have been thinking allot about family history work. I don't know why I just keep feeling prompted to study about it and thinking about it. It's an obligation we have as family... to do that work for our ancestors! It's been weighing on my mind allot and I am excited to come home and start working on that so that I can help my ancestors out! I wanna learn more about our ancestors as well, I really am intrigued by the ancestors of the family so if any of you have cool stories about our ancestors please send them to me!
Anyway, we are teaching this young man who is 20 and he has had a hard time getting over drinking. He has never really came out and told us what his concern is and so we have been trying to find out what his concern was. On Friday we stopped by and reminded him to read and pray and we started talking about the gospel and stuff, he expressed to us that he really wants to be a computer programmer. I took that and told him that God is the programmer of this world and the things we need to do to live with him again are all programmed here (in the gospel) so that it can all work out for our benefit. He got really interested and really opened his heart up to us! It was a cool experience.
This week we were riding our bikes, we were running late and were about 7 miles from our house. We had to be back at our house in 30 minutes because a member was picking us up to go to another appointment. We started to ride home and we were going as fast as we could through the streets of north Minneapolis and this little black kid just jumped right out in front of me when we were going down a hill!! I slammed on my brakes and turned the bike sideways so I wouldn't hit the kid and I fell on the ground..... it was a funny experience.... little kids need to watch what there doing ha ha!!! Anyway that was my week love you all stay safe!
Love,
