Aug 31st- moving right along

 This week has been a good, growing week. It seems like every other week is a difficult, but amazing week. I've been doing a lot of personal pondering this week. I've come to the conclusion that I need to work harder. I'd been getting a little lazy. Rather, a little comfortable. No one ever said the gospel was comfortable, but in the end, it's all worth it!
     On Monday night, we started an exchange with Elder Tittle, one of the AP's. He came and worked the area with me and Elder Sharp. It was a good day. We had a lot of lessons. Our investigator Alfredo is on track to be baptized this next Sunday! He didn't come to church yesterday on account of his ride, Favio accidentally sleeping through church. But he loves what we teach, and it all makes sense to him. He loves the word of wisdom, and promised to live it. He understands the law of chastity, but has a difficult time thinking he'll be strong enough to live it. We'll work with him!
     We got frozen yogurt again with Milton. He is such a stud; he just needs to read his scriptures more. I know that will help him be happier. As well, it will help him know to go on a mission! He came to a lesson with us to a part-member family's house and bore a super strong testimony. I'm still a crier, and it brought a tear or two haha.
     On Friday, we ate at Dickey's BBQ with Favio and Milton right before playing soccer. Bad move. We played so slow and fat. But it was really good food! The mosquitos have come out in full force. They ate up our legs and arms that night. The lesson afterwards was tough to bear just because we were being swarmed. 
     On Saturday, we ate with the Campo family. Probably my favorite family in the branch. They're so awesome! It was wonderful food and wonderful times :) They had non-members over to teach as well :) Awesome family!
     Jorge was confirmed in church yesterday :) That was done by Elder Sharp. It went well. I love you all! have a great week!
