hey every one, how's it all going.
this week was alright, we found a family of 6, so that's cool. we are teaching all big families. so that's awesome. the purpose of the gospel is to unite families, and hopefully that's what we are doing.
but it was also a funny week, I'm going to tell a funny story. this week was the first time in my mission where someone actually tried to rob me. it was funny. he was drugged out, cause the night before was carnival. but we had talked to him before, so he called us over, and we went to see what's up, and he asked us for 2 pesos, we said no, and then he pulled out a knife, and was trying to hide it but we saw it and, i asked him what he was doing with a knife, and he was like nothing, and tried to walk towards me, and i held him back a little, we told him we would pass by late, when he was a little more coherent so we could talk to him, cause he said he wanted to change. and so we left him there, and then we went to the cita across the street. they weren't there, and so we started walking back down the street, and he called us over.....(now i have a big problem that if someone calls us i go, and because i knew he was harmless, we went back)... my mom is probably mad by reading this.... but so when we got back, he was a lot madder, and said he wanted his 2 pesos, or he would shoot us. we started talking to him once again, i had to hold him back, and then his mom came out... this is the funny part, cause he really is a good kid, he is just a drug addict, but once his mom came out, he changed completely and we started talking to the mom, trying to help her out, we put a cita to go back and visit her and her son... but the son was saying how crazy it is in buenos aires, cause they kill people for like 10 pesos, and he was like the world is going downhill... but it made me laugh a little, cause he tried to rob us for 2... but yeah, then after that, everything was fine... we went to the cita, he was normal but the mom wasn't there. so we told him we would pass by when the mom is there. but that was the funny story of the week. but it was cool, cause the mom is way interested, so that worked out good. blessings.
but yeah, aside from that, the week was normal, we had entrevistas thursday, and it was nice to talk to presidente. but yeah. it's been good, the week. another funnny story is that we talked to a dude of another religion that gave us a weird compliment, he said that God would look at us with mercy when He comes even though we are wrong.... it made me laugh, i just told him thanks....( got to know when to pick the battles) but yeah.
over all this week was nice, the biggest miracle we saw was that we are going a lot better, a little more energy, and animo. and for that we found a family that's pretty good. but it's been fun, the mission. this week is transfers, so next Monday i will tell you if there are any changes, i doubt it. but we will see, i actually hope not. but yeah thanks for the love and all the support, and the prayers.... i love you all and the mission.....
peace out...
PS... don't freak out with the story of the dude who almost robbed us, you can tell the people who you can bend and you can tell the people who you can... so we were always good with him.......mainly for my mom and dad... love y'all
