Hey Family,
Sorry about last
week. We had a crazy pday and didn't really have more than 5 minutes at a time
in the office.
In summary I'm good. I
have spent so much time in the last week at a movie star store with my companion
that they gave us coffee mugs. haha I think they think we are employees now..
That is the phone service here.
Wednesday we found the
catholic block of our area. haha We have never been rejected so many times. Every appointment failed and we ended up only finding 2 people that were
interested. Neither one lives in our area. We sent the references. The
weird thing about Wednesday was that we were so happy at the end of it. Even
though we were tired and had nothing to show for it. It makes me think of a
part in acts when all the apostles had been taken and beaten and left singing
praises of gratitude that were counted worthy to suffer in the name of the Lord.
I am grateful that I can work and wear myself out for him.
The work is crazy. We had a
bit of a crazy week. I spent a good amount of time on Thursday trimming bushes
while my companion contacted... They talked for so long that I finished the
little lot! Later that day we were teaching a new investigator. (A Very Set
Catholic woman) but also very nice and open to conversation. She told us that
she thought that Mormons where rich racist people because she has never known
one. She was surprised to hear that we are really not that different from her
and her beliefs.
As we did a
little bit of CCE (how to begin teaching) I asked if there was anything in
particular that she would like us to talk about or a question she had about our
church. She said almost in tears. Talk to me about Jesus. I had been
feeling like we should talk about the Book of Mormon. So we did both!!! Haha!
Good thing the Book of Mormon Testifies of Christ Right?! We went to Mosiah. And
read about what Abinadi prophesied about the will of the son being swallowed up
in the will of the father. The spirit was so strong we gave her the Book of
Mormon and she was so excited to read it. I am grateful for that book. We read
it every night American's in Spanish, Latin's in English.. It's
awesome.
Well family that
it pretty much it.
