Cake and prayers

Hey! :D so, this last week was sweet. We were prompted to make a cake. So, we did. We made a cake during lunch and also got a card and wrote a note to this Ex-communicated lady who we were teaching and had recently dropped us. So, we made her and her family a cake and a card and took it to her house but she wasn't there and we left it with her son. In the morning found this guy named C. (meaning we contacted him) and we taught him the Restoration using the Pamphlet and he loved it. It answered a lot of his questions then we committed him to be baptized and he accepted. It was great!  We had two great lessons with P and A! (I just realized that I haven't talked too much about our Investigators lately.... my bad) They are so great! I love them. They aren't married and have a little girl who is about 4 or 5 months old. We taught them the Restoration of the Gospel and the Plan of salvation. The restoration lesson was one of the best ones ever. The spirit was really strong and A. is really into it. And understands it. Ugh, I just love them.

And I wish I loved them more.

It's been a good week! I thank you for your prayers!  Prayer is super underestimated and important. 

Tell me if there is anything that I can do for any of you! LOVE.

Les amo mucho! :D

Con amor, Elder Allen.

I've been so behind in posting Elder Allen's letters, sorry! I've decided to just start at his latest instead of working backwards. Thanks to all of you and your support!

We've done sooooo much this week and It's one of those things when you do a lot, but you can't really remember all of it because it went by so fast.

:D Elder Whatcott and I are doing really well! We had an awesome lesson with Y and A. They are 17 and they work at Texas Road house. Their Friend is a member and he referred them to us. It's pretty great!!

And we had a great MLC! 

(This is a clip taken from the letter I sent to Carter. It describes this MLC.)

We had a MLC on Friday and had two representatives from Salt lake came. They were instructing on how to planing and things like that. And how to plan effectively . At first I was kinda thinking like, "well, the situations they are describing are perfect. And I'm pretty sure I've never had that." So I wasn't really too excited. But then I thought about how important it is to give your leaders Honor. Like in Mark 5. The people gave Christ honor and he was able to heal the un-healable and do mighty miracles. Tame the un-tamable man and do amazing things. Then in Mark 6 at the beginning, he goes back to his country and they don't honor him. And it says "And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them."

It's pretty crazy. So, after thinking of that. I did my best to give them honor and I ended up learning a lot more. And came out of it with  (1. a respect for them. and ( 2. An understanding of why we needed to learn that and how it will help. 

So yeah! This week was good! And we are really excited for this next week! It's going to be really nice outside! :D

I love you all so much! 

Con amor, Elder Allen!

Awesome deer roast.
