This week was good. We were able to find more investigators that are amazing. This week we had some help from the branch as the branch President came with us to teach a few of our investigators, and to be able to enter houses to be able to teach. The women are always more receptive of the gospel so we have had problems getting into houses to be able to teach. Our branch president tried to remember how it was in his time as a missionary about 35 years ago and he taught me a really cool way to teach. It was awesome to hear his missionary experiences and how different it is now. He told us that back then it was all pretty much memorized lessons, but he showed us that they taught with pictures and visual things so that they could understand better. I loved how he taught and I want to apply it into my teaching, but change it a little to be more focused in the need of the investigator or the person we are teaching. My companion got his P. blessing yesterday so we did divisions so that we could still have our lessons. Also we had our zone meeting this week and they taught us about our studies. I loved it because it helped me improve in my studies to be able to be more prepared for the day. I really hope that I will be able to continue with my scripture study at home. I know that it is an important part of our lives, and that without it we will be lost. I have learned to love my studies in the morning. I have learned so much and have had great spiritual experiences during this time. It has strengthened my testimony a lot. I can now testify strongly that the Book of Mormon is true and that it has all of the answers that we need in our lives.
Love, Elder Monson
