A Cali Sunset |
So today we get to go to the temple and I am really
excited!
Eric, is there a temple close to where you're at in Guatemala? Also I
don't know if I already told you this or not but keep an eye out for Hermana
Andreason once you are out of the MTC. She was one of my companions in the MTC
and I think she is in your same mission.
This week we did a lot of finding
again. We have been visiting part members families and have a lesson with one
of them tonight. We visited [x] again this week. He is doing really well and
seems to be really understanding the message and making changes in his life,
but he hasn't come to church! He always says that hes going to come, and the last two
Sundays we called in the morning and he said that he was sick. We are planning
on teaching him the Sabbath day this week, so I hope he comes this next Sunday. [x] tells us that he has had dreams where he is with us in our congregation,
and he knows he's supposed to come but he still hasn't.
We also ran into one of
our former investigators this week named [x], and he is probably the
funniest person I have ever met! We couldn't stop laughing. He talks like a gangster and
says the funniest things! He said he was going to find his Book of Mormon, so
we might stop by again to see how he's doing later this week.
Last night we
went to visit [x], a less active member who we used to teach. He was
baptized in Mexico when he was 12 and only went to church for a year and then
he stopped going. We have invited him to church many times but he never wants
to come. We were talking to him at his doorstep and this guy named [x],
who we used to teach walked by. He is friends with [x] and so he came and
started talking to us. We asked [x] if he still has his Book of Mormon
and he told us that he is just going to read the Bible. Before we said anything [x] started explaining all about the Book of Mormon and how important it
was, and telling [x] about when Christ came to the Americas. He started
quoting scriptures and sharing his testimony.

It was awesome! He remembers so much! We ended up being
able to make another appointment with [x], and [x] is going to try
to come. It was a cool experience.
This week our Mission President's wife called
my companion and I to come help write names on the back of all of her pictures
for the photo albums, and so we went to the mission home and hung out with
president and his wife for a couple of hours. It was a fun way to use our service hours for the week!
:) We are probably going to go over again soon to finish up.
Well I think
that's about all that happened this week. Thanks for all the letters and
support everyone!!!! Love you all! :)
Have a great week!!!!!!!!!
Love, Me
