my spiritual side this week is learning just how powerfull this area is there is 10 investigators that the ward found and out of those 10  i think that maby 5 will be baptized before the end of the year and of those 5 there where 4 who told the bishop that they wanted to be baptized it was incredible this area is blessed.
