"It is impossible for us to fail when we do our best when we are on the Lord’s errand."
—M. Russell Ballard

I don't know if anyone has seen it yet, but the church has made an addition to Family Search. It looks like they bought a third party company called Puzzile that allows you to be able to track your family even easier. One thing that was cool was you can go back to one of your ancestors and see all of their decendence, allowing you to be able to see all of your cusins and recent relatives.

A few weeks ago on splits we were knocking doors and this lady said she was busy, but said we could try stopping by again. We stopped by twice sence then and both times the same woman answered but said she was busy, and sugested stopping by before 18.00 (6:00 pm). We stoped by again Saturday morning, her husband answered and let us in. We then taught a short lesson on the Restoration. It went great! Per the dad, spent most of the lesson keeping the two kids out of trouble, but the mom Maryanne was really interested. She said she liked everything we said, she is from Brazil and was raised Catholic, but she doesnt agree with all the Catholic beliefs. We set up another lesson and she seems really excited to read the Book of Mormon. Elder Hinrichs and I came out of the lesson with smiles spread across our faces. We're teaching a family!
