Week 55

Hey, so this week was something else. I cant believe that this change is almost over. I hope that i can stay here a little longer. I love this area and the people are great, and we just started working in another small town called tamara its real pretty. As well were going to an aldea maybe today or soon to visit some more people. Missionaries have never gotten to these places, its pretty exciting to go somewhere where missionarues never have been people look at us like were crazy (I mean we kinda are, right?) and people are receptive.


So this tuesday was good. We had a lesson with wendy. Pray for her, shes got a ton of things to pay for but no money, he husband is making adobe bricks as a job and the lady doesnt pay him. theyre struggling, but the other day eber (her husband) stopped us in the street and asked when we were gonna stop by that he has missed our visits. So thats great. and they wanna get married. but no money so were gonna see how much were gonna give her lol. cause its almost imposible that they raise the money themselves.


We have also been teaching a refrence of Pedro. Named Paola. Nice gal. she just has problems commiting to do stuff. and she wants money, but we are trying to help her feel the spirit so that she can see how God will bless her. Sometimes the people are super hard and dont understand that just a little sacrifice will bring them everything they need.


Also Danilo y Sofia are doing well. they are listening to us and we are gonna talk to her sister tomorrow cause she wants to knoww more about baptism and everything. But Danilo has a book of mormon and is reading it.


Wednesday was a special day. we knocked doors ALL DAY! and nobody answered. It was awesome! it was kinda tough. but everything happenes for a reason, maybe i was getting a little fat and God wanted me to walk around and looose weight lol.


thursday we walked out to tamara with the Bishop and we walked for an hour and a half and got to a house where a member doesnt live and walked back another hour and a half to cuidad espana. We did all this cause they might start a group out there so were gonna start working out there too. but we got home and were bummed cause we did have success out there either. so we studied in mosiah 18 to see how we could have success. (thats when a dude named alma preaches and baptises a ton of people) and so we left the house spiritually fed and got rejected a ton. then we went to dinner but at least we felt good about oursleves lol.


friday was the craziest day ever. the district meeting in the morning the zone liders came to tell us that were not working enough lol. then we went to an interview and the guy got there late and he was nervous and doubting if he wanted to be baptised or not so i had to help him out. and we finnished at almost 8 and there are no busses going to our area at eight and were in the area of the sisters so we could stay in there house. our zone leaders didnt wanna help us so we caalled the asistentants and they came form tegus and got us. and then they brought us to the zls house and we (my comp and i) had to share a curtian to sleep under and it was horrible we didnt sleep AT ALL. it was great. They were mad but the assistants were cool with us and mad at them so i was fine lol.


But yeah thats about my whole week . but im enjoying my self out here and learning a lot. I love reading now, and if yall arent you should start reading the scriptures. youll be a lot happier.

love yall
