Alright its been an interesting week, dont have a lot of time but heres the scoop
So someone passed us in the street on a bike, probably 50 years old, black hair like most latinos but dyed redish... when the person passed i asked myt comp if it was a boy or a girl... still not sure, so well say ``it`` to refer to the person right now... i had barely asked my comp the question when ``it`` turned around and came back to us, it then asked my comp what shoe size i am, not sure why it asked my comp. ii gues it supposed i dont speak spanish, cuz it got surprised when i answered the question... i said im size 44 and it said ``ah darn. a friend gave me some shoes size 41 and they dont fit meand i dont know what to do with them...`` i told them that they wouldnt fit but thanks anyways... kinda surprised that it had offered me free shoes just because im tall...
other story real quick. almost everyday we knock on a door to contact a new reference or something when the kids come and anwer the door. We dont even ask if the parents are there, cuz they know to say no, so we just ask them to go tell their parents to come to the door... pretty often they come back to the door after talking to their parents and say ``my mommy says shes not here``haha, but there was a MAJOR case of this this week. A little girl did this, and i asked ``oh really, who did you talk to just now then?´´ and she said `` to my mom`` then we asked again if she was home and she said ``well yes but shes hiding``... haha good stuff
Alright well thereve been a lot of interesting things in the work this week, but there was one super neat story i want to share realy quick. we went to a lesson with some sister missionaries in the zone to help them out a bit and they invited some recent converts to go with us too to visit a lady whos baptismal date fell through becuase she hasnt been able to give up coffee, and WOW it was a powerful lesson!!! Even though there are always tough moments in the mission, there are always just enough where you are reassured that The Lord is working miracles and the work will keep going forward!! Perhaps the most impressive were the testimonioes of these recent converts who honestly had a lot of difficulties themselves and werent so sure about everything before their baptism, but have been completely changed now. you can see the change that there has been in their heart and that they really have the gift of the holy ghost and have relied on The Lord to change their lives, it was incredible!!
Entonces les dejo por motivo del tiempo. Sè que la obra y gloria del Señor es ésta, llevar a cabo la inmortalidad y vida eterna del hombre! Siento honrado por poder participar en esta obra, sè que nuestro padre tiene un plan perfecto para nosotros, el cual hizo posible su hijo, en el nombre de Jesucristo. amen.
les amo
nos vemos
