Wait, What???

Wait, What???                                                                             Monday, June 23, 2014

Bueno! Casi no tiempo para escribir. Jeje   (almost no time to write!)

We had to go to Bancoppel (kind of like Target) and exchange shoes for Hermana Bobadilla and after that we might have had a little too much fun shopping for skirts and shirts. 

Good times :D 

Aaaaannd..that's why I have no time to write, pero no se preocupe! (But don’t worry!)

Let's see. This week. I don't remember anything. It went by too fast!! 

Tuesday we taught una senora and her son. We actually contacted her son, Jose Antonio, in the street and he told us we should teach his family. So we taught her a couple times. The second time was really good, and she said she would like to attend church. Wait, what? Awesome! And then 2 days later, she tells us that her husband doesn't want her to. Nooooo! Agh! So we have to stop by when her husband is there. 

Wednesday We taught a young woman named Rosario. Her abuela,(grandmother) Martha, has been inactive in the church for a few years. Anyway, the first time we taught Rosario was with Martha (the week before), and we read the first chapter of the Book of Mormon, and Rosario seemed interested. She asked us about the trinity, and so of course we told her and we got an appointment to go back. Well. This lesson was rather interesting. We were planning on teaching L1, and we diverted to commandments and what is sin. She didn't pay all that much attention, And at the end, her friends randomly showed up and we barely got in a closing prayer. Pero! We have a family to contact now (from her friends). But, we'll see if Rosario progresses. La verdad, I doubt she will right now, but her abuela, Martha is progressing :) 

Thursday was rather interesting. We taught a previous investigator named Antonio. He lives with his spouse...actually, they're not married. But they have a daughter and a son on the way. And the lesson with Antonio was good. He wants to keep progressing, but his wife, Lorena doesn't really want to listen. But the problem is, we're not sure if she's willing to get married. We shall see where this goes. 

Friday, the bus ride was rather boring. Attached is a picture :D  We got to the mission office and they took us to immigration place and took my fingerprints and my signature. I should be legal, now. :D 

We also taught some less-actives, Alma and Santiago. A very nice couple that always shares their food. And they have a dog named Rex, who reminds me a bit of Dixie. Anyway! Santiago doesn't come to church because of work. But Hermana Alma came this week to church! And Santiago should come next week. 

Saturday we taught someone named Alfredo. He's probably 45ish and is in a wheelchair and why we don't know. But the missionaries apparently taught him before. But it was a rather odd lesson. He wouldn’t say very much. And also we had Hermano Moran with us - a member in the ward - and he taught random things. True and important, but maybe not what Alfredo needed to hear. He even invited him to be baptized! Alfredo said, "poco a poco." But the problem with him is that we need help getting him to church. It's sort of a necessity to be baptized. Sometimes it would nice to have car :3

Oh! and it RAINED Saturday night!! I think you have no idea how good it felt to stand out in the rain!! 

Sunday!! We brought Jose Luis, Alexia and America again, but their Dad had to work. Also we stopped by for Hermana Martha, and you know who came? Rosario, her little brother Victor and two more cousins. We pretty much brought the primary to church :D 

But something really awesome happened in Sunday school. A woman named Sirina (I think) had said a prayer that morning that she could find the church of God. And she was walking in the street when one of the Hermanas in our ward invited her to church. So Sirina went back to her house, got her things and came to church! And in gospel doctrine class she asked what was required to be baptized. We told her at least 5 weeks to attend and get to know the church. During Sunday school we asked her if she would be baptized on the 26 of July. And she accepted!!! Milagros :) (Miracles!) Hay personas que estan listas y buscando para la verdad! Ella no vive en nuestro Barrio, pero no importa. Ella encontró la verdad!! (There are people who are ready and looking for the truth! She does not live in our neighborhood, but no matter. She found the truth.)   And another person is following Jesus Christ :) 

So that's a summary of the week. Mas o menos. (More or less)

This will be interesting. We have a ward mission activity on friday! And apparently it was my turn to choose the activity! Hahaha dn guess what I chose. Un minuto para ganar!! A minute to win it. And you know. I can't remember any of the games!!! Actually it's coming along, alright, but really. Who's idea was that!? Pray for me for that, okay? hahahaha 

Anyway!! uh...que mas...ya no se. Pero! Life's awesome. Really, I learned this week how important it is to stay focused!! ha I get so distracted sometimes!! But then I have to remember the here and now and that I'm in awesome MEXCIO!! Serving these amazing people. 

Have a good week everybody :) Love you and gracias por todos. *ahem* I still love letters. 

Love your favorite person ever,
