Week #38- teaching together with the spirit!

This week was good, we gave a few more investigators a baptismal date and we are really excited to have baptisms in this area after going about a month without one. We are having more lessons these past 2 weeks than I ever had with my last companion and I love it. I feel like we are a lot closer companionship and that we are teaching together and with the spirit. I love how my companion teaches with all of his examples, the investigators understand a lot better so they are really being converted. I loved one of my recent studies of the Restoration and the Book of Mormon. I learned so much about how important it is for our investigators to read it and gain a testimony. If they gain a testimony that it is true they know that the church is true. It is really simple. I really liked when I was able to  tell this to one of our investigators and then he told he would read it that same day and pray about it. We are still waiting to see what he says but I know he will recieve his answer. We now have 6 people with a baptismal date and one this saturday. It is getting really hot here and was 75 degrees when I woke up at 6 30 I miss Utah and the cold so much! It is way to humid here. I am having a lot better time with my new companion and we are having a lot more success. haha Do you think it will live? I dont know about skype because I am going to be transferred from this area before Christmas. I am hoping to go to a rich area haha.
Love, Elder Monson
