This week was pretty sweet, we went to a place called Kotosh last Pday that consists of a place where some ancient American Indians lived, there aren't any ruins but there is this one spot where you can stand on, and your voice just echoes super loud. I guess in the ancient times to call like a "meeting" together as a tribe, they stood on this certain rock and their voices echoed throughout the valley. It is pretty weird because just whispering on this spot your voice echoes, but when you stand off, nothing! Pretty trippy, I have a pic of me below standing on it yelling!
A cool experience I had this week-well I mean everyday something happens- but the highlight experience willing to share this week is about an investigator we have named R. He was a reference from a lady in our ward. He is 45 and is divorced and has gone though a ton of problems. We invited him to be baptized about 2 weeks ago, but last Saturday night (the night before going to church) for the first time he got a super bad hernia and had to get surgery, so that topped off everything! Yesterday we visited him and he told us the whole time he was in the hospital, he was thinking about getting baptized. It turns out the patient next to him who was also recovering was a member of the church! Sweet! So he was able to hear a ton about the Church and everything! It was awesome though because last night we were able to testify to him that we have challenges in this life to make us better, and to bring us closer to Our Heavenly Father. I know if we have the perspective that this life is an opportunity to be tested and to grow every day. We will look at our challenges and weaknesses as opportunities to become more like our Savior Jesus Christ. Here is a video we showed to our investigator R. as well, it is awesome! Go watch it!

I love you all! Have a great week!
