Hello!   So this week we've had a big clear out of our investigators. Many of them weren't progressing as we would have liked, and so we said to them that when they're ready, they can give us a call. Unfortunately, at the same time, many of our really good investigators had various problems, and so stopped wanting to see us. It was rather depressing! Then flu hit our companionship and we weren't able to do any finding work to get new investigators for the week. It took alot of faith and resolve for us to persist and say that we would continue without our old investigators, especially since we were only doing only fixed appointments, but we went ahead and tried our best. The miracle? We were able to teach 22 lessons still, 2 more than the goal for the Mission!   It reminds me of the story of Elijah and the prophets of Baal, that Dai Hole showed me one time, in which he set up a competition with false prophets, in which the object was that they had to have their respective Gods send fire upon the sacrifice. Elijah poured water on the sacrifice, which showed his faith. While I may not have faith like Elijah, we all should have that faith, to be able to do the right thing, even if it makes things harder for us to achieve our goals, and have faith that God will help us. When we do the right thing, God really does bless and gives us what we really need.   I love you all!   Anziano Nelson
