Zone Leaders

Hey! It was a good week this week and I was so glad to get the packages of candy and such! Even though I have a ton of candy..I feel like I am going to get diabetes by the time I leave here! haha I can't believe that  this week it has been a month! It has gone by fast! another month of here seems pretty long ha but I am pretty sure we will be on a plane to Donetsk before we know it! I can't wait for that day! haha It was so good to get pictures from Mel and Shar from your guys' Halloween Party! I love the pics so send more! 

This week then my companion and I got called to be Zone Leaders because the other ones leave next Tuesday for Ukraine! So it has been a unique experience. On Sunday we had a ton of meetings and it felt forever especially since we were fasting haha but it was still a pretty good day. On Sunday I got to see Hayden one more time and we both had our cameras so we finally got a picture! so hopefully the attachment sends! I know he will do awesome things for the Hmong (is that how you spell it?) speaking people in California and all the other people he comes in contact with. He has always been a good example to me and am grateful for him. I am also grateful for tender mercies that our Heavenly Father! 

This week we have continued to teach our investigators and they are both progressing pretty well! Some days are better than others but overall going well. We will now be teaching another missionary in our district then my comp and I will be teaching another companionship in our district portraying someone they know who they think would be someone who needs the Gospel of Jesus Christ in their lives. 

We did this activity in class where we would ask the investigator if they would be willing to follow the example of Jesus Christ and be baptized and they were told to say no. We were then supposed to wait a minute to get impression as of what to say so we could soften the hearts and I think that is an important lesson that we are quiet for a minute and wait for inspiration so we can be a clearer window for the Holy ghost to touch their hearts. 

We had some extra time one night so we did some family search and I got all the way back to Adam and Eve! haha It was pretty sweet! I did it twice with two different lines both from the Witt side, I wrote down the second one, but I didn't on the first and on the first one I went through Constantine and such! it was pretty cool! check it out and see if you run into Constantine again!

Thank you for the emails, letters and candy haha 

I love you all and cant wait to hear from you again next week!

Love, Elder David Witt
