this week was a pretty disapointing week. its rained all week and the one day when it didnt rain we decided to go and see our 3 investigators with baptism dates and we walk up to marias house and there is a moving truck outside the apartment... turns out she started to move that day and she left with her family to alabama the day after that. so two of our investigators has moved!! but we still have felix and he is doing pretty good still. hopefully he can progress as fast as he has been lately. well this week has been a very slow week so ihave nothing really left to report. life is good. the weather is humid. but im loving it here. love yall elder horrocks

it was such a great time being able to "see" you guys! haha the video didnt really work but it was a nice break from the missionary life for an hour or so. but like i said over the phone and for people who didnt hear. this was a great week for us. the weather has actually been pretty calm. except for the weekend, on firday it rained pretty bad and since then its been real humid but not real hot! this week we got three of our investigators to commit to a baptismal date! one of them is a single man who lives in an appartment with a member so we already have a great fellowshipper! the other two is a mother and her son and they are the nicest people ever. the sons name is emanuel and he is never not smiling! he is the happiest guy i know and he told us that he loves to read the book of mormon and that one day he wants to be like nephi! and his mom maria has been investigating the church in mexico and then she came up to louisiana and we found her a couple weeks back and are having a great time teach her and her son! we are trying to get a lesson with her hsuband but hes always at work when we come over. for p day we go to a trampoline park and i am getting in real good shape from jumping all day! my vertical has gone up like almost 6 inches since i have left from all the biking/walking! i cant believe we got a dog. mom has gone crazy. well thats it for me! love you guys thanks for all the love and support! elder horrocks
