Hey everyone!  I hope you all are doing well as always!  This week was pretty good and tiring.  So basically we have been contacting all this week to find new people to teach.  The zone leaders put a new goal for the zone that each companionship would contact at least 10 people per day adding up to 60 in the week and 600 for the zone per week.  This past week we were able to contact a bit of people but the most of them live in other places.  

We are also starting to recieve more refferals from people as well so that helps us out a ton.  We have about 3 people that we haven´t been able to contact due to their schedule and all that.  

This past week I learned a lot about prayer and just how powerfull and important it is.  A lot of times, we as humans go to pray with a list of things that we want to happen and when we do this, our intention is to try and change the will of God when that is never going to happen.  So the purpose of prayer isn´t to change the will of God, but to ask for blessings for us or for others that God could give to us according to His will.  When we ask for the things that we want, we do not pray in the name of Jesus (as so often happens) because it does not represent in any way the desires of Jesus and for that reason, a lot of prayers remain unanswered.  We should also be aware of the things that we ask for.  If we ask for something that we shouldn´t, it could be turned on us for our own condenation.

Well, more than anything, I was able to learn a lot of things in this past week with meetings that we´ve had and experiences.  I hope you all have a great week!  Stay safe and be smart! I love you all!
