Right now we are teaching a lady that owns an ice cream store. We started teaching her because my companion and I wanted a shake. She is doing well and is reading the Book of Mormon, which is great, but she can almost only meet with us in the ice cream shop. This means that most of the time our lessons are interrupted by her needing to attend a customer. We have also used this to our advantage as a finding tool, talking with people to see if they have interest in the gospel and ice cream, if they do, then they have a lot in common with my companion. He has a sweet tooth and eats more dessert than lunch.
We are also teaching a barber. He is also reading the Book of Mormon, but always says that he doesn´t have the desire to switch religions. We are teaching him and trying to help him see that this really is the only true church of Christ. He is leaving the Book of Mormon in his barber shop and gives it to people to read while they wait. He is preforming missionary work without being a member.
We got a new ward mission leader a few weeks back and he has brought a new feeling to the ward and the ward is becoming more excited about missionary work. It is great when somebody that is not called to be a full time missionary is excited about the work.
