Good week, but not much to tell; Studying the New Testament, it is so wonderful

Querida Familia!!!

It was a goooooood week!  There isn't much to tell today, so I'm afraid this will be a short email.  We've just been contacting references like crazy, trying to find new investigators....it's been kinda rough, but these last few days were a lot better, and we found a few really cool people!  One day knocking on doors, we came to one house, knocked at the gate, and were surprised when the man came running out smiling and holding a Book of Mormon in his hands!  He was really excited to meet us, and told us that he had a few really good friends who are members of the church, who had given him a copy.  Unfortunately we haven't been able to teach him yet, but I'm excited to be able to visit more with him and help him to learn more about the gospel.  :)  
This Sunday, Presidente Genaro will be coming to our ward to give a talk!  Everyone is super excited, especially our ward mission leader.  He wants to have a LOT of baptisms when the president comes, so we're going to be working like crazy this week with all the investigators who have been coming regularly to church but haven't ever committed to baptism.  We're going to see miracles this week, I know it!  
I started studying the New Testament a few weeks ago, and it is soooo wonderful - I love reading the words and teachings and miracles of the Savior.  I can really feel the Spirit testify as I read these chapters, just like Peter said, "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the Living God!"   I know He lives, and He loves us!  I know that the most important thing we can do is follow His example, every day!  
Anyways, I'm out of time, and out of news too, so that's it for this week.  :)  Hope you guys are all doing great!  I love you so much!
