Wow
it was an amazing week..... We had 6 people come out to church this week and
well I'll tell you the story of all of them
S-
S is the mom of 3 girls and has a boyfriend that drinks a ton and turns out to be a less active member. We found her last Monday. We taught her and the girls lesson one
which was alright, and then we invited her to pray and the end of the lesson.
It was probably one of the most from the heart prayers I have ever heard in my
entire life. She pleaded with God that her boyfriend leaves the alcohol and
that her family can be happy. God really did lead us to her house in a time of
need. We had another lesson with here Saturday and she had already read
like 15 pages in the book of Mormon and she had told us she was going to church
before we even said anything. And her daughters were fighting over the book of Mormon
so we had to give them all one. She is starting on journey to the happiness :)
They all showed up to church walking like an hour in some really hot weather
L-
He
is a young man we found last Sunday. Super nice kid but he is a little timid.
He is 17 but doesn't know how to read and is really timid. We are going to help
him open up a little bit with the youth in the church and help him become
closer to Christ. We are using a few of the youth from the ward in
the lesson to help him feel loved.
AO-
The super
smooth couple. they are super funny and are thinking about
getting married so they can get baptized. They love the church and the
other night we watched Meet the Mormons in the church with them and L also. A said that she almost cried when the missionary
leaves his family and they really are starting to see changes
in their lives....The Relief Rociety gave A a teaching of the prophets
book and she was soooooo happy. Her and O
were reading it Sunday night when we passed by.
I'm
soooooooooo grateful to be able to be helping these people on their personal
path to the salvation. I know that this is the work of the lord and i
enjoy each and every day. I love you all and pray for the people I'm teaching.
I feel like we are so close to seeing miracles.
I really am doing good. The feelings of the mission are super hard to explain. I have 0 free time and I'm enjoying myself lots... weird. Its
sooooo against what the world thinks.
I
feel like my mission is really starting to roll along :) I really feel good about
where the work is going.
I
got a little bit of mail and I heard that its opening back up so we will see
what happens tomorrow :) (Argentina has had a mail strike for the past month)
