We had a cool experience this past week, Elder Mochon and I. Our one investigator, Johannes Hufnagel, has been trying to stop smoking since we starting meeting him. He was a pretty heavy smoker. He was smoking about 20 cigarettes a day. He has gradually cut back every time we have met with him, though. 3 days ago when we were meeting with Johannes, he told us how he is struggling to stop smoking. Once he said that I received an impression immediately to tell him about Priesthood blessings and ask him if he would like to receive one. I acted upon the prompting and he wanted to receive one. Then Elder Mochon gave him a blessing that he would stop smoking. Johannes told us yesterday that he hasn't smoked since he received the blessing! Talk about awesome. He was way happy to tell us that and is just happy that he has finally stopped smoking. It was definitely a miracle that happened because of faith. It was seriously a miracle. He was addicted to nicotine way bad, but now because of the Priesthood he has become healed, I guess you could say. We haven't been seeing much success in finding new people, but the Lord has seen our hard work and has been blessing our one investigator to help come closer to baptism. It's pretty awesome. That what pretty much the highlight of the week.

We didn't do anything else this last week besides try to find people interested in the gospel every day, all day. That can be fun sometimes. You meet some crazy people. We got to meet with some friends of a member this last week and they came to church on Sunday and really liked it! I hope we can start teaching them. The only reason why we couldn't is that they are very busy. They are both Italian. One is from Sicilia and has a totally typical mob boss voice. It's metal.

We went to a Red Bull factory place last week for P-Day. It was cool.
