hey every one, this week was good. we actually found a lot of people and so we are getting started with getting them ready for their fechas... the biggest problem is finding our investigators after we found them the first time... kind of the story of my mission... but yeah. no complaints. it's funny how sometimes the Lord just wants patience out of us. like last week was way hard, to be honest so was this one but yet God blessed us and helped us find more people. so it was cool.....
Monday, we found this dude named juan, it was funny, it was raining, and we passed his house then we doubled back so we could knock it and he let us in. we taught him, he's a great dude. then Tuesday, we found some more people, a family of 3, well, more like a sister and brothers but they are way funny, they heard the lessons before and pretty much know everything. we just need to help them apply it. but yeah....
we pretty much found people every day of the week. and Saturday, we found the coolest dude. his name is Jeremiah... like the bible prophet. but this dude looks and acts like Chris Rock... he's way funny, heis 20 years old... but he had us laughing all the time in the cita. it was fun.
all in all, we received many blessings... patience is the name of the game. but it was a good week all in all.
but to try to answer some questions.....
here the only person that gives us food is presidente gutirrez, and to be honest, if we go to his house every day he will give us food... way good. but most of the week we fend for ourselves. and so yeah, we eat, hamburgers, pizza, pasta, rice, sandwiches, and whatever else we have in the house...
then the branch is still fun, me or my comp has to teach Sunday school. and then whatever other class the teachers didn't prepare. and we talk every sunday. wether it be directing, talks, prayers.... either way, the members here get the blessing of hearing my broken Spanish...lol.. well, strong yankee accent. but yeah....
but yeah, like i said, this week was a lot better, most of it was just in forgetting myself and serving the people and being humble enough to see the miracles..... God sometime kicks us on our butts so we can get better and progress. so after the swift kick in the rear from last week, I'm good until probably tomorrow and then i'll need another..lol.... but that's life, right? Progress, slowly but surely... like someone told me in an email "we ain't the losing team". just work hard, serve, love, be myself, stay chill, and it will all go good, or at least, the way it needs to go.
but yeah..... so thanks y'all for the letters i'm gonna try to answer all the emails i didn't answer last week. sorry, know I'm way gratefully to get mail. and love hearing from family and friends. so thanks for the support.
love y'all and peace out....
