Dear Family,
One person we're working with is Rene. He is a friend of a member and he is wonderful. He is looking to change his life and the member told him he should contact us. He has a big challenge, but he feels peace as he reads/listens to the Book of Mormon and while at church. His date is this coming Sunday. We know he'll make it!
We found a new family through a referral from the neighboring Spanish ward. They told us about a less active that recently moved into our ward, and her husband is not a member (Olga and Juan). We have started to work with them and they are committed to come to church next week. A family in the ward also invited them over tonight for an FHE. We have set Juan for the 24th. We're super excited.
We had a wonderful zone conference this last week. We learned so much about focusing in on our investigators by focusing on what they need to do, not necissarily on what we need to teach. It's not a checklist but helping them gain faith and repent--to change their lives. We have to step out of the way. It's about them. It's about their salvation.
Have a wonderful week!
Yours,
Hna. Cottam
