Finding a New Investigator

Time is a bit shorter today. We had a pizza party that we won as a zone from a competition as the mission and then I got stuck playing a game of Risk. Don't worry, it was completely worth it. I won.

Thank you for all of the packages and letters this week. I got two of the packages yesterday, and the letters today. From the pictures it looks like the kids have already changed a bit since I left. Crazy. It is always great to get updates from people. And the shirts will be great. I was down to two short sleeve shirts and it has been in the low 90's with humidity. Gross.

The work is still a little slow. We are trying all sorts of things to find more people to teach. I think that this area might be going back down to one companionship next transfer, which is next week. The transfers are flying!!!

We don't have much of an area book in our apartment, so when I went on exchange last week and stayed in the others apartment in the evening I went through some old records and wrote down some names with their information. I got four names that sounded pretty promising. Two were bad phone numbers one was already being worked with by other missionaries, and I was able to set up an appointment with one. We went and visited her last night. After visiting for a while I asked her why she had stopped meeting with the missionaries. She said that one set of missionaries came and told her that they were both being transferred and left a number for her to reach the new missionaries. She tried calling the new number after she hadn't heard from the new missionaries and it was a bad number. She seems very interested and she has read a bit from the Book of Mormon.

I know that the Lord blesses us for our obedience and hard work. I will continue striving to be more obedient and more hardworking until the end.

Love, Elder Rindlisbacher
