YOYOYO

Hey Everyone,

Im doing great here in the Dominican Republic. We are having a lot of sucess in the small town of Guale. We went around with a lady to pretty much the entire town and told them who we were. Then we invited them to come the next wendsday to her house. Well tomorrow is wendsday and we are expecting a multitude of people. SO We will try a savoir on the mount approch and teach a whole bunch of people in a little park. So we are very excited for that. We have so good investigators adn are really close to having baptismal dates for them. Im really excited and they are to. We have one lady who is in love with the gospel and is already acting and calling herself a member. She is awesome and her husband is really excited and they are super pumped about living together forever. Im really learing the gospel and the language here. The language is coming slowly but steadily and the gospel is just out pouring, I have gain such a strong testimony of this church their is no doubt in my mind. I have had the spirit whisper to me too many times to deny it. It is one of hte best feelings you could ever have. I also the the joy the church brings and how much better off we are knowing hte things we do. But this is the hard part helping people change their ways and their realigion. All we can do is invite them but they have to search for the truth they need to read the scriptures escpecially the book of mormon and also to pray and ask if the church of jesus christ of latter day saints is the same church that has been restored through Joseph Smith. Its so awesome to know that we have the same church that christ establised and also the prophets before himj. It is such a great blessing. I challenge all of you to share this with some one you love or one of your neighboirs. Well this week i went on an companion exchange with Elder Peguero. He is our district leader and is a native Dominican. We nows only a couple phrases in english so it was pretty much all spanish for 2 days. But it was really awesome and a huge learning experiance. We have also started a prech my gospel class for all the leaders here in Nizao and Don Gregorio. They have a huge love for the book even though it was their first time seeing it. It is scripture. We talked for almost 2 hours and we had to stop it because we had an oppoinment. They were really interested. We focused a lot oin them getting refrences and famililes ready for us. That will help us so much so we can have families that already have friends and a knowledge of the church. Im so thankful for all of you and wish you the best of luck this week. I really miss you all but this will be just a small moment. I know imk supossed to be here and serve here. Im thankful for this great opportunity to give back to my lord and savior. Because he is our savior and he want everyone to come unto him adn his church. But he isnt here and he needs our help to do it. Again I love you all.

Best wishes

Elder Anderson
