dear anyone other than the man with six fingers on his right hand,
end of week one in redhill and things are going amazingly well! we've picked up 8 new investigators since i got into the area and already have one new baptismal date with robert (who i can’t remember if i told you guys about last week) he's going to be baptized on the nineth of march in just under a month from today. we had a pretty cool miracle with him in that in our first lesson with him he asked us about the word of wisdom and we briefly explained it to him. when we told him about smoking he was really hesitant about giving up and i kind of got the hint that he really didn't want to. in our second teach with him, after he had attended church and read the first nine chapters of the book of mormon he told us that he really wanted to give up smoking! coincidence? i think not!
we also started teaching a really cool uni student named henry just yesterday. he's twenty six and really really intelligent. he doesn't really have a religious background but started becoming much more spiritual in his later years. when we were talking to him he told us about all his theories and ideas about god and it turned out that a lot of the things he had come up with were all mostly true and the only concerns he had were things that were easily answered by the restoration of the gospel. things are going great here.
sorry i don't have too much time to write this week but just know that the work is going great and i'm loving being back into the epsom ward with all my old friends from the beginning of my mission.
love ya guys tons and i'm grateful for all the support you guys give me
with love
