Nerves and investigators progressing, and my birthday!

We've been working quite a bit with our investigators this week. Gabriella,  who has been needing to tell her husband she wants to get baptized, finally told him this weekend! We've been pretty nervous for this to happen because we don't know what he'll say, and we've been afraid he'll get angry and not let her come to church anymore. But he said he will think about it. I think that's great! 

We were also nervous to go to Leonel and Flor's house on Friday. But it ended up going really well. (They are the ones we first taught with the mission president). We read in the BoM with them. They have so many questions but I love it because I know the BoM has the answers to their questions so as they read it, they will find their answers and that will be the foundation of their testimony! Leonel didn't come to church this Sunday after he said he would, but we are trying to contact him right now to find out why. Pray for them please!

Also, this week I did an activity in Preach My Gospel where I read a bunch of scriptures and then wrote down what an investigator needs to feel to be converted. I noticed that there are a LOT of different things that an investigator can feel that will help with their conversion, but the common denominator in everything is that they have to have a desire to know God and be converted. And when they have that desire, they begin to do things that are necessary for a lasting conversion, such as keeping the commandments, praying, etc. That desire also leads to faith and repentance, which lead to baptism and confirmation. So I thought that was really cool that all an investigator needs to start their conversion is a desire to be converted.
