New Comps in Round Rock

So this week was great!!!! Elder Guthrie went home on Wednesday and that was a bitter sweet moment but i know he is happy at home!! Then we had transfers on Thanksgiving and Elder Morrin and I received a new companion, Elder Lundstrom. He is super positive and loves talking to everyone!! So that was fairly exciting! Right after we had a fairly nice dinner at the Nance's home ( A family that Elder Morrin knew before the mission) and some of their family was there and it was awesome!! Bro. Nance sent a picture to my mom which was awesome, apparently his daughter who is serving in Kirtland, was able to send some pictures through members so he decided to do it for us haha :) also we had dinner at the Bravo's home and some of the family was there and we were able to introduce the Sisters that are serving in Palm Valley Branch. Sister Bravo is actually white and learned spanish through her friend and working at a spanish restaurant and so she is pretty much fluent haha.

  So this week we have been running around trying to find out new boundaries because the zone split and the boundaries have not been announced, but the work is continuing!! So this week we went to Jesus's home and we talked about families. Angelica said they were working on getting married and they were trying to find counseling. We told them we would fast for them which we did and unfortunately they did not come to church because Angelica was feeling sick. Also we have a new investigator who is the mother of a recent convert, Israel. Her name is Elena and she told us she had a testimony of Joseph Smith and she likes the Book of Mormon. The first time we met with her she said no to the invite to baptism. She said she has not always followed God and does not feel worthy. So the second time we met with her with went over the plan of salvation and told her that she is a daughter of God and he loves you. And so we all testified of it and she started crying and she said she wanted to. So the 14th his her date and after wards she gave us a hug and asked for a blessing which was awesome!!!! We also have been meeting with Eduardo and yesterday he told us him and Maggie had an argument about him coming to our church. Which was kind of sad to hear!!! but he says he is reading and praying and we know that he knows the church is true. The volleyball activity every week is very successful and the members love it!!!
