Notes from 18 August 2014

Hello! Here is the update on our investigators: Paula is doing just
wonderfully! She looked so lovely and modest at church the other day.
She invited us the the Gaithersburg, MD fair, but we couldn't go:/ but
she is progressing so well! She is starting to feel like she needs to
repent of sins in the proper way, which is an indicator of her coming
closer to a Christ.

We committed Dee, our investigator who will be baptized in the near
future, to read the Book of Mormon cover to cover, and she accepted!
We both started over as well, and we will be able to follow up on her
reading.

Will, our investigator from Cameroon, believes the first vision to be
a true and powerful event that occurred, we just need him to get
excited about church.

We have a sister leaving out of our ward in 9 days to go on a mission!
I am just so proud of Ashley Barney and of her willingness to serve
The Lord. We went to her farewell, and I have attached a picture
below.

We went to downtown DC today to exercise on the national mall, and a
sister and I did yoga in between the Capitol and the Washington
Monument. We are so American(: we did meet a girl around our age by
the Washington Monument and we got her name so we could keep in
contact with her on fb. She is a Zumba instructor in Trinidad.

I know this is way short for my weekly emails, but if hope you all
have a wonderful week!
