New people every day

This week has been really good. We are working hard. Lots of lessons falling through but it is giving us more time to find new people. We haven't had any issues yet with being spies since the last incident so thats really good. 

This Sunday was district conference so all of the branches met here in the East Canje Branch. It was really good. On Wednesday we have zone conference and Elder Alonzo of the area 70 is coming for it. 
Elder Buxton and I have to present a 10 minute lesson on how the Book of Mormon brings us closer to God and How you should us the Book of Mormon so thats pretty exciting. The only time we really speak in church is when we are new to the branch or leaving. They always try to have members give talks but we are kinda the back up if they don't show up. We teach all three classes. Investigators usually really like the gospel principles class because they love learning new things. Elder Buxton is a really hard worker. He always looks for the best in people. He is a really good missionary. We are working really well together. 

We finally got Brother Datt's birth certificate and so him and Kim are going to get married on the 18th of November and baptized on the 25th. We are really excited for that! Things are going well in Canje.

The Halloween party at home looks fun. The fires sound pretty crazy though. People are always burning garbage and grass clippings and different things here so you pass through lots of smoke sometimes. 

I meet a lot of new people everyday. From Muslims to Hindu's to Christians. All sorts of different cultures and races and backgrounds so its pretty interesting. We met a guy named Abu the other day. He wanted us to make sure that we understood that Jesus was just a prophet and not the son of God. He gave us a qaran and told us to read it. He was pretty interesting. 

Love Elder Fisher
