There was a lot of cool stuff that happened this week!
Our investigator Jonny is awesome! We taught him the big three, Word of Wisdom, Law of Chastity, and Tithing all in one shot after church yesterday, and he said he was willing to obey all of them. His baptismal interview is this week, and he will be baptized next week! He made me think of a line from Preach My Gospel. It says those who are prepared "will recognize that you are the Lord’s servants. They will be willing to act on your message." I don't think it was that he recognized me and my companion were anything special, but he has recognized the truthfulness of our message and that our church is special, and so he is willing to act on it however he needs to. We saw him last night after we taught him the Word of Wisdom in the afternoon. He had with him a Supao (a popular energy drink here). He said, "Well, I can't drink coffee or tea anymore, so Supao it is!" That made us pretty happy.
We had a Facebook miracle this week. Last week, we contacted a guy who was in the middle of selling his motorcycle to another guy. He was pretty willing to talk, but the other guy didn't want to. I wrote down our number on a pamphlet, and on a whim, also wrote down my Facebook name. Then we opened up our Facebook again, we saw that he had added us!

That is about it for this week. The work goes on!
