Im struggling to come up with a creative title for this letter

Man this has been such a good week. Other than some ....ummm... digestional difficulties, Weve had a lot of success. Ive decided that I always have to at least one trial coming at me, and if we can have this much success with this as my trial, Ill take it any day.

Soooooooooooo, pretty much this entire week has been focused around the same people as normal, but now we added in a new menos active named Sabrina. She is a single mom that has been inactive for the past 7 years. we began visiting her, helped her remember the great feeling she had at baptism, aided her in coming to church this week. 
 
Church this week was really nice. 4 of the Menos activos that we've been working with for a while came. They're all starting to get back on their feet and make the right decisions. Thats something Ive learned recently. with three of these menos activos, we've started passing by every day for sometimes only 3 minutes. The thing is, the constant reminder that God is there, has helped them to put God forefront in their minds. That is the purpose of the gospel. To teach us to put God forefront in our minds, so that we always follow his teaching and commandments. Many people want to follow God (They think "Its a nice Idea" "It would probably help me out") but either they keep forgetting to do the things we tell them, they allow other things to cover up the importance of it, or they are just a bit lazy. They just need a constant shove to push them along. If they can have that Until theyre up and running, They can learn to run on their own. Dont give up on people. Just keep pushing them a little longer.
 
Alvaro is progressing and is almost at baptism, he just needs to give up smoking once and for all. We've got a plan with him, and he's working on it

WE also are continuing to work with all our other investigators, and all is going well.
 
I love Piriapolis.
 
Love yall and hope yall have a great week,
Elder Eliason
