Hey everybody everything is going so very good I'm just loving life so much its going so very good the work in this area is going so very good me and Elder Basalo are having the time of our lives!!! So just for your information i could not get a picture with Elder David A. Bednar since my mission president told us not to bring our cameras. Sorry i wanted too but our mission president discouraged it we actually didn't even get to shake his hand sadly but its OK since we know that they have a very busy schedule. I loved the experience though it was definitely an eye opener since we really needed to hear that and I'm very surprised that you actually prayed for that since that it really did have an impact on a lot of things for me as a missionary.
So this week we had a very good week me and Elder Basalo alot of great things came as we wanted from our hard work as well as our prayers for this area. This week we were able to find 6 new investigators for our area!!!:) It was definitely a successful week for me and Elder Basalo as well as we were able to visit alof of the less-actives that I wasn't originally able to visit with Elder McCoy. 2 of the investigators are full families so really happy for that to have been able to be found!! Of those investigators none of them came to church but some of the investigators that me and Elder McCoy found through the members came yesterday to church one them the Denosta Family is really doing good its a single mother family with 8 kids yea its going really good they all came that we are focusing on especially her oldest daughter who is 18 years old is really progressing. By the way this Saturday Romela Alati-it has an interview with our District leader to be interviewed for baptism so yea we are pretty excited for that she will be baptized on September 22nd I'm really excited for this opportunity to be able to bring this person into the gospel. Shes doing so very good shes attending every activity with the YW so really happy as well as loving life always. Her family are really happy too so yea couldn't be more happy to hear how things are doing from the kabilang buhay. Really glad to see that you guys get to enjoy that time with Allen and Kristi. As well as Dad to be able to visit one of your old companions hey i got 3 companions from Utah so ill be able to visit alot of them after my mission. It must be good to be able to see how they are doing after the mission. What else so yea I'm just doing the best that i can to be an obedient missionary which i feel is very important. Other than that really I'm just doing the best that i can to be an effective missionary for him. Also today we looked at Joshua 3 and how we can relate it all to our purpose as missionaries. It was really cool to see really how much you can relate anything to the scriptures. I've started reading the Book of Mormon again since that it really is the greatest blessing for me and all that i do as a missionary. Always we need to remember that we need to always act on our faith since we can really rebuild ourselves and families. (Ether 12:27, Alma 32:21,Helaman 15:7-8) I love you all and always remember that we need the Lord more than we think( Alma 37:37) I love you all.
Mahal kita,
Elder Thompson
