April 11, 2016

Hello Friends and Family,

We contacted a lot this week trying to find new investigators. Our prayers were answered and we were able to find a couple good investigators. One of them is a lady from Cuba. It was super fun listening to her accent. It made me realize how I probably sound to the Peruvians. She is a church preacher but was super humble and accepted our challenge to read the Book of Mormon. We have a follow up date this week with her. Next, we found what I hope is a familia de "oro"- gold. The parents of the family told us that we came to their home for a reason. They want to get married and have their children grow up in the gospel. I was so excited to here that they want to get married. Marriage is not too common here in Peru. We still haven't been to church in two weeks. Last week was conference and this week was the Peruvian elections so we didn't have church. We still don't know to many members but that will finally change this week. I feel like this area has lots of potential and we are finding some really amazing people. Lately, I have been trying to improve my personal prayers. I can feel the difference during the day when I really pray with true intent to find what God wants me to do here. Elder Jones and I get along great and we are super happy.

Love,

Elder Goold
