Work Continues in WA

Family,
Well, this week has flown by, and I really don't even know what to write about it. We are still in the process of training the new branch mission leader on what his calling exactly is.  He loves the work but doesn't really know too much about what we do on a day to day basis.  I think he just thinks we knock doors all day:)  The Hermanas are in Renton, and we passed off a bunch of people for them to teach.  I honestly think our area book was cut in half.  We are looking for some people that want to learn so we can grow our teaching pool.  We found several and one family seems to have potential.  The mother was excited to hear that the church offered classes for her daughters (around 5 years old).  I guess the church she was attending in the past didn't.  She said they would start reading The Book of Mormon and that we could come by tomorrow.
 
This week we had our investigator (Jesus, the man from Puerto Rico) ask us if we had a date he could be baptized!  I told him any day after he was married. He then said "that would take a miracle" because his girlfriend has no desires to be married....we are now praying for a miracle! :)  He hasn't been to church for the last little while because he starts working at McDonalds at 4 in the morning on Sunday and doesn't get out until after church ends.  Just yesterday though, he slipped in a little late to sacrament!  He said he got off work a little early so he could come.  We didn't see him much though because right after he has to go to a second job.  We also started to teach his 17 year old son that just arrived this past week from Puerto Rico.
 
Well, that about wraps up the week.
Love you all,
Elder B.
