Family so hey how is everyone doing. I hope your all doing really good and enjoying yourselves in the cold. Last I heard was that there was a lot of snow in the mountains but really warm down low. Sounds like you will all be getting ready to farm soon. Ha that's always a good time of the year back home. Dad gets really stressed out and starts to worry. Just like every year it seems to work out just fine. If I were all you though I would enjoy the snow while you have it. It has just been really hot here like normal but now its summer so its even hotter. The work here really slows down when summer comes. The people start to sleep more and are always inside so we don't get to talk to as many people. Well as for me here my last week was just a normal week. It started out with p-day on Monday. We emailed then went to a mall to look for some stuff. We then saw a bowling alley and my comp said he had never been so since I love bowling I said we had to go so just us two went and bowled. It was fun. Tuesday we had a normal day but first we had our zone training that we went to after that back to work. We taught Mary Jane again and within just one week she had read through Jacob in the Book of Mormon and answered all of the questions we gave her out of the pamphlets. She really is a golden investigator. She is a little shy but loves the gospel. Wednesday slower day but we taught June Arca and his wife. They are new but they don't really want to commit to us because their whole family is Catholic so they are worried about their family. We will see though if they will soften there hearts to our message. Thursday morning we had a service project at a members house. She is very poor but collects trash and takes it to the junk shop for money. We helped her divide it up into different piles so we dug around in the trash all morning. Later that afternoon went out to teach. We got Maia ready for the baptism and had another great lesson with Mary Jane. The spirit is very strong in the lessons with her. We then taught the BocBoc family it was a good lesson with the spirit. I feel very bad for them. They have nothing no power or bathroom they just go outside. They are always so kind to us. Friday we went and finished the service up and then had weekly planning which took a long time. After that we went out and nobody was home so that was a slow day. Saturday we had the baptism. 1 investigator and 3 children of record but we did the baptizing. Then our investigator that got baptized invited us over for lunch. We then had priesthood session and the adult session for stake conference. Sunday we had Stake Conference in the morning then the sisters made us all lunch. We then went out and taught. We found a new investigator named Alfred, not sure how serious he is about church yet but we will see. Later that night we had dinner with the Burhal family. Normally Brother is very quiet so I didn't know about him but he is way cooler than I thought. He is the second counselor in the Bishopric. So that was my week nothing to crazy had a good baptism. It was a pretty good week. Hope you all have a good week. Thanks for all that you do love you all. Love Elder Robison.
