My week has been good, I now have 3
investigadores and TRC (in field training) so time flies by so quickly.
We taught our investigadore Adrain he is amazing he is progressing in
the gospel and he left our last lesson in tears, and wants to be
baptized asap. It has been raining almost everyday here and so the bugs
and spiders have been so bad. Spencer Shipton arrived here yesterday and
another kid that graduated a couple years before me named Wesley
Billman.
Today we got to visit the Temple or visitors center because the
Temple is closed for remodeling but it was still super neat! We got to
go through and buy things and meet real investigadores. I bought a
shirt that says "I´m happy I´m Mormon" en espanól super sweet! I also
bought mini Poloroids of Jesus Christ.
So something really cool happened
as I was leaving the visitors center 4 strangers came up to me and
started asking me where I was from and just small talk, well we asked
them if they were interested in hearing about the Church, they were
immediately interested. I talked with them and invited them to go into
the visitors center and they accepted I was so stoked!
So last week I was telling you about the Eldre with the ripped
suit so I fixed his suit, he got a new one, then I gave him about $110
for a new one when he gets to Chile. When I gave him the suit and money
he began to cry and said "you have no idea how much I needed this". It was
a neat experience. I´m glad I can help people, and serve. Missionary
work is awesome. I´ve also fixed 3 or 4 skirts, 3 pairs of pants, 2
suits, and have a couple people bringing their stuff past my casa in a
little while.
In other news things have been pretty slow, my Spanish is
moving forward I´ve been studying a ton, and praying a LOT. I hope
everyone back home is doing well! As we were driving today to the Temple
I got to see a lot of what Mexico looks like. It was very humbling I
now understand why so many want to come to America. I saw many homeless
children looking for food. It breaks my heart, I want to pick them all
up and give them all I have! I´ve noticed the people here are sooo kind,
there is a bad stereotype in the US that they are bad. Not all are bad,
most are just lost. I love the people here, and God loves them too.
I hope every has a great week! Love you all.
