Hey Everyone,
I am feeling better this week after being so sick to my
stomach last week, and I have been working hard despite the ridiculously hot
weather we are having here. We actually got 3 investigators to come to church
on Sunday! One of them is this 19-year-old girl named E. She is super smart and
she reads the little pamphlets that we give her and she wants to get baptized
soon. She asks really good questions. She is so ready! We get to the lesson and
she is like, “Hey, I read the whole “Plan of Salvation” pamphlet and she is like, “I thought it was
interesting that it was part of God`s plan that Adam ate the fruit, and that it
was because we needed to come here to earth and we needed free agency to make
choices to progress.” We were like, “Holy cow, you already know everything!” She is a golden
investigator! She understands so well! We
are for sure going to have a baptism! She
came to church along with our other two other investigators, so things are
looking up for us. We only had Friday and Saturday to work this week because we
were traveling, but the lord blessed us with lessons and with people that came
out to church.
This week we have to travel again to Formosa and Elder Smith
has to go to Tucuman again, because the paperwork failed last week, so I am not
going to be in Clorinda for almost the entire week, I will be in Puerto again.
So in Puerto, Elder Pérez is serving there and is also training a new
missionary. I worked there with them and got to see some old members that I
hadn`t seen in a while! I also went to A’s house but she wasn’t there, but I talked
with her on the phone, and this week I might be able to go and see her. It was
fun to go to Puerto this week. I even got to see the dog that bit me, ha-ha.
It
has been super hot here and our pension is just like a brick oven!
Gilda
Lopez (The girl that just got her mission call to Brazil) helped our investigator
out in church because she is also the same age as E. We didn`t even ask her to
do that, she is a great member and she will be a great missionary!
The multizone this week is going to be sweet! I always have
fun with Elder Smith joking about things here like the dogs and the cars and I
really do enjoy a lot of the environment but the food here is killing me ha-ha.
There is always some funny thing that happens and it is fun to have these
experiences. Last night we got attacked by killer mosquitos and we literally
had to run to get away from them, ha-ha!
That is awesome that Colton and Amanda are having a baby!
And that you got a raise! Just enough to get me an exhaust system, ha-ha, just
kidding. That is fun that you got to see Zane. I am glad they are going to
Disneyland! That is cool that there are fun things that you are getting to do.
I can`t wait for nice winter clothes and no sweat ha-ha.
Anyway, there really isn`t much more to say but I love you
and miss you all and thank you for all the support. I can`t wait to see you all
again!
Chau!
