Hey family,
Hope everyone had a great week! It was incredible here in the Promised Land! Colorado is beginning to show signs of spring and it's so beautiful. Yesterday and today it was in the 50's with clear skies and lots of sunshine. You could see the mountains perfectly-I wish I could go climb them! Colorado is for sure the best kept secret; everyone should move here.
This was a pretty crazy week. Lots of interesting experiences. First, we are teaching a less-active young man who is borderline anti-mormon but agreed to meet with us if we would teach him only from the bible. So I guess we're now teaching a Bible study class! We had interviews with our mission president, which was amazing. He is a wise and inspired leader. I have a lot of respect and love for him. We began teaching a new investigator named Alex who is just incredibly sincere in his search for truth. We taught him about the bookof mormon and about prophets and he loved it. He has investigated almost every religion from Judiasm to Paganism, and says he feels like he finally has found answers in the Book of Mormon. One of the wards in our Zone had a talent show and asked the Samoan elders there to do a "haka" for the ward and somehow we ended up a part of that. Apparently a haka is a war dance from the pacific islands. We're going to war against the powers of darkness! We are now giving a presentation to a Methodists congregation in town on Wednesday. Im not sure how that came about but evidently they want to learn about what mormons believe. And as a side note we're also going to be giving our input on the CSU's "Faith and Spirituality" panel of various religions. So lots going on in FoCo!
