starting week 4 in the field‏

HEy

This week has flown it seems like yesterday i was emailing you!!! which it is good that time fly's cause that just means that i am working. in fact the work is going great, lots of people who seem interested and want to learn, we had a lot of set appointments and just this last week we got 5 new investigators whom we had lessons with. We have two people with baptismal dates in the Holly Springs ward and zero in the Apex ward, which is funny cause there are a lot more potential investigators in the Apex area.
Matt actually gets baptized next Friday which is awesome, and after he gets baptized we are hoping his mom will just catch fire and role. HE also has a little brother that is twelve and wants to learn but is way shy but i can just fell so much love for him because he just reminds me of Justin and his face is just like Justin's i really hope that after Matt gets baptized his little brother Andrew will! So both of our investigators with baptismal dates are from friends inviting them to mutual so it is pretty amazing that really SUCCESS IS IN THE INVITATION.
So Saturday was pretty crazy we had 7 set up appointments and all of them fell through but we did meet two others that are now set up to be taught this week and they both seem very sincere. so i hope it all works out with them. Oh and Friday we had a crazy experience so we meet this lady on her porch she says come back Friday at six so we come back with an exchange his name is Brother Holme and the lady totally forgot. So as we drive up she is on her porch with her friend named Stacy (her name is Beverly) and her face goes white cause she forgot. So Beverly was going to tell us to come back another time but our exchange who used to be a door to door sales man totally flirted and joked with her so she let us in and we taught both her and her friend. Now she wants to come to church. so it was awesome.
So i am doing good i got a letter from Nettie and Katie this week and i got Your letter Mom on Monday when we got home. i love to get letters. i love the mission and i am so glad that dad taught me how to work, because of it i love to work and it is hard for me to sit around. I just want to get out there, and time flies when your working. so guess what our mission leader in the Holly Springs ward just moved to Logan Utah!! and a kid in the Apex ward leaves tomorrow for BYU-Idaho.
So i told him to say hi to anyone from Preston!
Anyway hope all is well it is crazy i am going on a month just in the mission field after this week.
Also they might white wash our area and me and Elder Henley might be opening up a new area and they will put sisters here!
So ya i love you all tell Justin to started practicing for baseball and tell Leslie good look with the season
Love Elder Brad Phillips!!
