Alright heres the week!!
Funny story first of course. We had a big family night with a whole bunch of people in the chapel and played some fun games with water balloons!! So not many people got wet actaully, the water balloons idnt break very well (never assign the sister missionaries to buy the water balloons... oops) but all ended well when my comp and i pulled of the sweeeetest thing!!!
Alright so theres always that one youth right who, well, finds ways to win the games even if it meanshe doesnt follow all therules right?? So ya she didnt really realize that she wasnt helping it be as fun for everyone else, but at least she felt good right??? Lets let her feel good in her ignorance, and lets get her wet whilewe are at it so that everybody else feels abit better too. That was thementality of my comp and I. completely unplanned, just totally natural, she walked right inbetween my comp and i witha big waterballoon in her hands, and i reached over and squeezed the waterballoon as hard as i could and my comp pushed her a little bit from behind, PERFECTLY, so that the waterballoon broke, with ahuge explosion, andthen she sort of fell on top of it (didnt trip completely though) but it just exploded right in her face as she fell forward a bit, andit completely soaked her hahahaha!!!!
Ahhhh mycomp and i were soooo proud. It couldnt have been more perfectly executed!! So ya luckily she was a good sport and laughed about it but it was pretty great!!!
So my comp and i had quite aday yesterday. We got to church right at 9 oclock after speed walking around the WHOLE town trying to wake up our investigators and get them to go, the sun came up nice andearly yesterday and we were sweating bullets all of sacrament meetingsittingthere in our suit coats, thenn the teacher of the gospel principles class wasnt there so with out any time to prepare before hand, we hadto whip up an hour lesson for that class in thesecond hour, then the primary counselor came and found us in thethird hour andsaid she needed a lesson for the whole primary the thirdhour.... so ya my comp and i taught that class as well... that was actaully a blast though!!!
So this weeks been interesting. As zone leaders were told we haveto have thebest area, thatour proseyting area should be an example to all the others in the zone, and we taught more lessons in the week than any other companionship in the missionfor like the third week in arow,but we unfortunately have notbeen able to get the people to come to church... Ahhh so we finished this week with aton of lessons taught, almost all with members as well, but with all our other dats lower than the rest of the zone.... So at least the zone as a whole is doing well, but my comp and i are taking a completely different aproach this week... It should be interesting to see, we arent even going toteach much, just visit A TON of people, visit theneighbors of all the members, help them feel the spirit and then invite them to church and have the members help us to get them to go, weve tried just about everything else... The members here are awesome though so i think it should work pretty well!!!
Entonces asì finalizo mireporte semanal. Me esfuerzo lo màs posible por aprovechar cadamomento acà en la misiòn, el tiempo es demasiado valoroso. Pero tambièn, aunque siempre tienen que haber dificultades, el gozo que se siente al hacer esta obra es demasiado dulce! Sè que cuando la vida nosparece demasiado difìcil, y vemos nuestras debilidades, es porque hemos llegado a Dios, como se explica en Èter 12... Dejo mi testimonio del sacrificio expiatorio del Hijo, en el nombre de Jesucristo, amen.
les amo
nos vemos
