First of all, thank you everyone for the birthday wishes! As well as for the Cards, presents, packages, etc. It means a lot! 22 doesn't feel too different. I guess I've officially hit the point in my life where there aren't any more big milestones for Birthdays, until I can retire when I'm 65. That should be a good one. I'll hold off awhile before I start counting the days for that one, though. I've still got time.

Lots of success in the mission this week. We had MLC again this week. It feels like the weeks really are just days now. Time is flying. Anyways, We brought all the Zone Leaders and the District Leaders, which rarely happens. We had 3 beefy trainings, 2 from us (one on ministering for Leadership and another for ZL's to give to their zones), and President gave a powerhouse training back to the basics of our mission. This week was a HUGE one for the mission. We had a goal we haven't hit in months and doubled our New Investigators. The Training definitely ministered well to the Leadership and we're excited to see how much further we all progress as the training is given to the rest of the mission. The FFLM has always succeeded at helping a lot of souls come unto Christ, but we're getting a lot closer to fulfilling our full potential again.

Liberty City, but not GTA. Real Life. |
In our area, we've seen a few struggles lately. We've been focusing on a lot on exchanges, getting with the Leadership, so our area has taken a hit. We've only really been able to work with one investigator, named R. She's gone through a lot in the past month. She's been left by her Husband, lost her job, lost her car, pretty much anything that can go wrong, has gone wrong. She's facing so many hardships that she's become too discouraged to do much about it. We've been doing everything we can for her, but we can't force her to do anything. It's really sad. We have a recent convert who has a very similar story we are gonna take over there. She's the perfect success story of how having Faith and applying the Gospel of Christ can get you through ANYTHING. Which it can. Try it sometime.

Got some good pics while going to/from exchanges this week of Miami Beach/Downtown Miami. As well as some goofing around. Having Elder VanCott in the Trio has been a lot of fun. I'll send em in a seperate email, cause I've got a few.
Hope everyone has a good week!
