Hey!

Well this week has been awesome! We got an awesome and hilarious couple investigating the church now! They both came to church together for the first time and they both loved it! When we had a lesson with them on Saturday Clayton and Mary Moore (the couple) told us how they felt about some of the churches they have been too. Currently Clayton doesn't go to a church but his wife does or did. Mary was like "I'm tired of people speakin' in tongues and babbling and fallin' into the isle!" It was the funniest thing ever! Best of all, they are a member referral! Statistics show that  1 in 1000 people the missionaries talk to will get baptized, but 1 in every 2 people the members interact with will get baptized. Missionaries need more members referrals!

One of our investigators, David Bonbrake, got baptized on Saturday and confirmed on Sunday. It was so awesome. His room mate came who isn't a member, which was good, we were glad he came to support brother Bonbrake, but when he was going into the font and everybody was being reverent he was getting loud and saying "this isn't a time to be reverent, we need to be excited and to rejoice, it's a wonderful day!" Needless to say he was a little disruptive.

We have been so blessed lately with finding people that are ready to receive the gospel. It has been a wonderful week for us!

Love, Elder Robertson

P.S. The stake president here, President Shumard, is awesome! You should be expecting a call from him sometime this week :) You should be getting a call from him because he asked for a number to contact my family at cause he wanted to talk to my parents cause he's awesome. Apparently he calls the families of the missionaries that he likes.
