Salama emailers,

Well as you can tell from the subject, we had a pretty good week, in which we met our weekly goals, but also realized we've already met most of the goals we made for this transfer.. And we still got a week left. It's been a good past 5 weeks. Anyways... Not sure where to start haha, there's always a billion things to say and you never know what to put in. We had some good, weird and some disappointing experiences... fa izay ny mision! Anyways, our guy Setra is still going pretty dang good, have still been having some really cool lessons with him, though he didn't come to church yesterday. So we'll see what happens there. On the weird side of things we taught Muslims this week! You know it went surprisingly well, one of them were very accepting, and it was a fun learning experience. Though it is pretty hard to share the message of the restoration of the gospel of JESUS CHRIST... when they don't really believe in him as the savior haha. But i enjoyed it! on the spiritual side we visited some less actives and i decided to share Hebrews 10:35-37 with them... it went super well and it ended up becoming a mini testimony meeting.. and one of them even came to church hahah who woulda thought?! On the disappointing side Andry will not be getting baptized next week. I went on a split with our ZL to do the interview and he ended up deciding he needed to learn longer and be baptized in april. Bit discouraging since I don't know if i'll be here in april but we'll see. Sorry i'm in a bit of a hurry hahah on the fun side this morning we went to the croc farm. Saw some crocs, petted some lemurs. had a good time. That's all i have time for this week, and we'll see where i end up next week. I love all of you guys! And so does our Heavenly Father... i've felt his love a couple of times this week and well.. it's been good :) Have a good week emailers.
