Hello,

This week was an awesome week. Elder McGill and I did some work. We received a referral from the English missionaries, named Cielo. They said she was somewhat interested, but that's about it. So we went over there, and decided to meet her. She is a 19 yr old girl who lives with six other people from her family. We didn't think we would be able to teach her and the whole family to where they were progressing investigators. We went in talked to her and asked if the family wanted to come sit in. Well amazingly, they did (that never happens)! So we taught an awesome Restoration and picked up 7 new investigators in one lesson. Sweet, and they seem pretty good. Jesus one of the sons, is about to get baptized into Harvest (the great and spacious building), so we gotta stop him from taking that camino down to hell.

Also we picked up 2 other investigators this week, meh we'll see how they go. I've finally gotten to the point where I can understand everything everyone says. It's super relieving. I also love being here in the states and being able to meet people from almost EVERY Spanish speaking country in the world.

We got to go to the Elders Quorum President's house on Sunday who's from Cuba. He gave us Cuban food and I ate a TON. Elder Cook, from Colorado (another big guy) and I have eating competitions. Also in sacrament meeting the bishop announced that whenever the members have us over for a dinner appointment they have to make us a ton of food because, "Elder Cook y Elder Dial comen BASTANTE!"He's super tight and has tons of animals, like 6 horses, 8 dogs, and cats too. That's about it though love you all and I expect replies!
