The other set of elders crashed the car we shared.  It won't be fixed for a few weeks so we will be walking:

Week 57 - Great weather and lots of lessons

The summer here has been beautiful and a lot of people are very confused about why it has been so nice. It isn't that humid and not that hot, so all and all it has been great.

This week Elder Johnson and I were guided to 4 new people who are interested in strengthening their relationships with there Savior, Jesus Christ!!

On Monday we had a great P-day and hung out w/ the English Elders, threw the baseball around, and had a great time. We had a great Family Home Evening with a family that hasn't come to church in a while. We shared a message about the Restoration and had a great time getting to know them better.

Then on Tuesday we taught M who is one of the people J introduced us to. We taught him the Restoration too. Then we had a lesson with JK, and in the evening we taught one of the daughters of a member who is returning to the church, and invited her to be baptized also.

Wednesday in the morning we taught a woman who's name is H. She was also a referral from J. We taught her the Restoration in the laundry mat where J works and invited her to be baptized as well.

Thursday we had a lesson with M and B, and their son sat in on the lesson also!! J came and taught them with us and the spirit was very strong as we talked about the Book of Mormon.

Friday  we had a lesson with a family that is not to interested, but we still have faith that the spirit will soften their hearts eventually!!

Saturday we taught O, A  and M < the family we also had FHE with>.  We taught them about the Atonement and the power the Atonement and what a blessing it is.

On Sunday church was amazing and afterwards we taught O. Then we had a wonderful member lesson with the H family.

This is just a summary of our amazing week.

Love,

Elder Roberts

Week 56 - Walking this week

Hey Mom,

I am doing great.  This week without the car was just like all the weeks in Muscatine when we walked. We walked a lot but the weather was surprisingly nice.  It only rained two days out of the seven!

I got the package thank you so much!!! I have been eating the snacks like crazy!

I am happy and healthy and pumped to see miracles this upcoming week.

Love
