10/30/11

What a CRAZY week! I started out with exchanges on tuesday with
We Found 3 new investigators this week too. Quite the successful week really! Two of them were referred from the tennis player guy we had lunch with last week. It is a mother and her son, Pablo. She really wants him to find a church that is best for him, and he says he can tell the difference when we prays and when he doesnt pray. he has 11 years and likes tennis. by the way, they run a tennis club! 6 clay courts that just CALL my name! haha But they are nice, its just hard to teach them cause they dont tell you very much. So we are working on helping them to understand everything we can! Our other new investigator is the brother of a recent convert we had. He was actually referred to us from someone who isnt a member but he was asking his friend and his friends said to ask the missionaries. It was really cool! And he is very receptive and I hope that he will keep this enthusiasm going for the gospel! its awesome when people light up like that!

We also had a lesson with a couple who are SO AWESOME! They both want to follow the commandments so much and they need to get married and they know that, but he has to get a divorce first but its really hard and long process here. But we shared the proclamation to the family with them and they just drank it up! It was awesome! They are so fun to teach cause they always have questions and want to do as they are suppossed to! I love it!

The one sad thing, we had all 4 of our investigators planning on attending church, all said they would, and then we had 0 of them show up. Ouc, that one hurt. It would have been good too cause we had the primary program, and who doesnt like little kids doing things!?! haha We need them to attend though, especially our boy with a baptismal date!

My funny storyfor the week, while walking to a cita we had at the top of the mountain, there is this guy who stopped us. He has a bottle of who knows what in his hard nand you can just tell that he is drunk. He walks up and asks us how to write something in english and then turns and (all tihs is spanish, just in case you didnt know) and he asks me if I am american and I say yes and he gets this big , very faministic smile and lifes a little, then he plays with my hair and SLAPS ME 3 times! hahahahahahaha Ya, imagine it, just imagine it! it was pretty funny! Thought I would share the fun! haha

Thats pretty much my week for you! I hope the next one can be just as busy if not more busy! I am lovin it! Though, im TIRED at the end of the day! haha and we are getting warm, summer is on its way! haha Love you all!
