5/21

Well, lets just say this week has been insane!

 

Yeah tell me about summer. Were I am the temperature is just grueling. The only up side is there is no humidity here. So just standing outside doesnt make you sweet your face off! Haha, but we are walking so I still sweet.

 

No baptizms this week, but we will be having a number of them next week hopefully, just depends on how fast we can get some people married. We found a few news and so we are working with them this week. In this area there is alot more referals then there were in my last area, so most of my baptizms here have been referals. Me and my companion are getting along well, we are both kindof nerds and so we have nerd talks, but nothing to terrible. We dont think that we will be together after this change, he has 6 months here in this area, and this is useually the limit, so probably going to get a new one next transfer. Yep, I have Barbens email, so no worries, he is in my same zone, so I see him atleast once a week.

 

Ok! On to my news. This week, on Thursday we had a mission meeting were PResident taught us some new stuff. One of those things is that sometime in between July and September we will be having an Apostol come here to speak with us. Super stocked for that!

 

As for Investigators and really cool experiences, we were teaching Blanca the first vision and as we finished we asked how she felt, in response she basically told us it is true and that as soon as we started her heart exploded with the spirit. Super cool and as soon as we get her married she will get baptized!

 

Found another family this week, part member family. The mom is baptized but noone else is. We taught them and they all accepted the date for baptizm. The cool thing is as soon as we started speaking you knew that they could feel the spirit because they got real quite and attentitive. That and they most definantly need the Gospel, because they have 5 people living in a room no larger then the size of my old room. Super humbling!

 

Also found this guy through a reference named Daniel. He apparantly has had one heck of a life, from seeing spirits to having people basically threaten his life. He is very open and willing to change. He went to church and loved it, and said he will most definantly be coming back.

 

Had to give a talk in Sacrament this last week. The thing that sucked though was I had 5 minutes to prepare... Thanks goodness for the back of the BoM, looked up a few scriptures and shared experiences. It was interesting but I pulled it off.

 

Also ran into one of my MTC Resource teacher´s old investigator. So it was wierd to here them talk about him. It wasnt one of my MTC teachers, Demke or Jenson, but a resource teacher that caame in and taught us every now and then. Koons was his last name.

 

Well, I think that is it from the world of Mexico. This week was pretty mellow for events.

 

Ok, well that is it for this week I think. Love you guys a ton and a half, and hope everything goes according to plan this week. Take care!
