*HI from MESA ARIZONA TEMPLE*

Hello Family and Friends,

How is everyone doing? How's the New Year starting for you all?  Well for me, I'm doing great here in Arizona - sharing and teaching the gospel to Heavenly Father's children.  This past week was a pretty busy week for us.  We are in a triple companionship with Elder Vaoga because his companion left a week early for school, so we are covering 5 wards.  We are mostly in a car this week going to lessons and visiting potential investigators and less active members.  We had some great lessons with Ben (one of our investigators) that is doing really well.  We are teaching him the commandments to get him ready for his baptism on January 28.  We are so excited for him and he loves learning about the gospel and knows that it is true.  We also are teaching the Romaro family who are doing great and also teaching them the commandments to get them prepared for their baptism on January 28.  Another investigator we are teaching is Bryan and teaching him about the Book of Mormon and how it testifies of Jesus Christ.  We just had a great lesson with Jeana this morning and taught her obedience and the Word of Wisdom and how we can be blessed by following his commandments.  Sunday was a very nice Fast and Testimony sacrement.  We had church from 7 am -2 pm with sacrement, meetings, and classes.  Yesterday, Monday we visited Mike a potential investigator whose wife is a member and had a great lesson on the Book of Mormon.  Then we visited Betty a referral we got from her brother-in-law and we got to know her and taught her about the Book of Mormon.  Then we had a great lesson with Ben on the 10 commandments and following the prophet.  We are pretty busy teaching investigators, but we are excited that they are open to learning about the gospel and how it can help them in their lives?  The Lord prepares those that are ready to hear the gospel and how Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ loves them?  Well today, Tuesday is my pday this week because tomorrow are transfers. I am staying in Peoria Apache park and Sunrise Mountain beacause I am in a 12 week trainee program, but I am still going to the transfer meeting tomorrow with Elder Vaoga so he can get his new companion.  Wow. I cannot believe its been 6 weeks already, time is going by fast.  The weather is still pretty nice last week was a little hot but it is pretty warm this week too.  Well, I hope everyone is doing great. 

Love you all,

Elder Cabral
