I knew coming out here I
would gain a testimony, but I didn’t think I would gain as much weight. During
district meeting I ripped my suit pants which really was just so sad because
they were my favorite pants and is also a sign I’m getting fat. Other than that
it was a pretty great week out here. Monday we had a pretty relaxed p-day, and
after p-day we visited with people and saw some less-actives. We got a call
from the AP's and they told us we had to move out of the apartment that night
so that wasn’t fun. We had to move back to the super ghetto cigarette
apartment.
Tuesday we had an awesome
lesson with one of our less-active families who are trying to go to the temple.
We talked about the temple and the priesthood, and the dad got pretty excited
about it.
Wednesday, we had a really
good time at food bank and talked to a lot of people. We talked to this husband
and wife and they said we could come by and visit the next day. We were on
exchanges so I was with Elder McGill. We biked all over and had a lesson with
one of our investigators Maria, we talked about prophets and invited her to
watch conference and she said she would if she didn’t have work. We then were
leaving and saw these two white people so of course we had to talk to them and
they said "hey our vice principal is a Mormon" so we went and talked
to him, he was a really cool guy. We then went over to a member’s house for
dinner, she can only feed two of us, we had an amazing dinner and it was fun. We
then went to the church and found out we weren’t supposed to eat with her this
week but next week ahahha. We played volleyball with all the youth and members
it was super fun. We had a less active family come and play which was awesome
to see them.
Thursday, we had a long day
of planning, during planning we got a call from the AP's in Mexico telling us
about a member who is about to move here. She then called us and asked us to go
and visit her son in jail. We spent a good hour driving in the wrong direction
hahaha. We didn’t get to visit him. We then went and tried one of our new
investigators named Norma, she was outside and said she was busy but we talked
with her anyways and we talked about the Plan of Salvation, she loved it. We
went to visit the family from the food bank and the house they told us was
empty so we were walking around and we saw this old guy and asked if they still
lived there and he just got mad at us and told us we shouldn’t be there and
that he was going to call the comps and then started waving his bat at us.
Friday, we had a pretty good
district meeting, and then after we had lots of time which is nice, we got to
ride bikes around and tried all of our investigators and tried talking to
people. No one was home but we got to talk to a lot of people which was really
nice. It was super hot though which wasn’t fun.
Saturday, we did service all
day for this one lady, she has a son who is in high school that is a super cool
kid and a super good member missionary, we got to talk to him and do service.
We then went and visited a couple people till dinner. We ate at the
church, and while we were there they were watching the women’s session but only
3 people were there, and two were the missionaries.
Sunday, bladdimir texted us
again with a lame excuse saying he couldn’t come again. We had pretty good
lessons, we had to watch a couple of little kids so the parents could go to
gospel principals, and it was pretty fun. We went out with a member and tried
tons of people but no one was home, we then tried the Vargas family and they
were home. We talked to them, and mid-lesson a mouse trap goes off and the
mouse got away and I had to step on it. Well good week out here. Love
everyone.
