Dawsonville-Week 3

I have had a number of people ask me if I had new pictures of Justin.  He is good to occasionally send them home to us but I am terrible about getting them posted to his blog but I have included a few from his last 208 that he sent home a few months ago.  This is the lastest update from him....My week has been good.  We got some awesome people that we are workin' with right now.  The weather has been hot but that's just how it is and I love every minute of it, I might move down here ;)  ha ha we'll talk about that later :)  My companion and I are doin' well, we are working pretty hard right now but there is always room for improvement.  We picked up like 3 new gators (investigators) this week, so the Lord is really blessin' us.  I bought new shirts that actually fit, it is a good feelin.  They make me look more like a representative of Jesus Christ.  Thank so much for helping me out with the funds for my mission....this has been one of the greatest experiences of my life.  We had a neat experience this week, well to start last week while tracting we gave this guy a Book of Mormon and said we would come back to share more and so one night this week we went by and his wife answered the door, without asking questions she let us in and we sat down and taught her the first lesson.  She said she was very interested and that she wanted to come to church in a couple of weeks, after the Olympics were over.  I know that this church is true.  I know that missions are not easy, but this is the Lord's work and it is his kingdom that we are building up.  And the things that we do in this 2 year span are far greater that we are and we can't even begin to understand the difference we are making.  I know that Jesus Christ is our Savior, he lives and loves us.  His Atonement is amazing, it can change anything.  I know that the Book of Mormon is true and no one can take that from me.  I love y'all and miss a ton.
