this week was pretty good. we were unable to connect with our investigator derek. but we are going to teach him this week. we had a really cool experience with a member family yesterday. at the end of the lesson we asked the question "who do you know?" and they sat and thought for a little bit. couldn't really come up with anybody. but they were still thinking about it, and than the name came to them!! it was their neighbor!! they have been looking for an opportunity to share the gospel with them and weren't quite sure on how or what to do. we had been talking about the book of mormon in the lesson so we suggested that they give a book of mormon to them. they told us that they would do that!! we had mission tour with elder evans and he told us that the missionary department has gotten a year of missionary applications!!! that is a lot of missionaries going out!! sounds like arizona is getting hard to hunt in. too much hunting pressure. but i would like to be put in for the draw this year! the time is just a flying!! for Christmas this year we are going to be able to skype!!! that should be great i get to see all of your faces and you can see me!!! anyways there should be a letter coming for emily from an elder leany. if you haven't already got it. make sure that she writes him back a good one!!! hope you have a great week

love elder woodard!!
