Hey
Family!
It
was a decent week. We didn't have very much success with our key indicators (numbers),
but that's okay because we still saw miracles. We witness miracles every week
in the mission. I seriously love being a missionary.
This
week we went to go contact a less active sister. We go knock on
her door and she immediately lets us in. We start talking for a bit and the
subject pops up about baptism. And her husband said, "yeah I really want to
get baptized in your church, but my divorce papers haven't been finished."
I
guess he had an interview with President Gelwix to see if he could get
baptized, but in the end he couldn't yet. And that was about a year or so ago.
So he kind of gave up until these papers could get all worked out. He specifically
said, "I was waiting for someone to come and help us get moving in the
church again."
Just
another miracle that we were guided to find a specific someone. You probably
get sick of these miracles I tell you (never, Taylor), but I love them. They just tell me how
invested the Lord is in the missionaries. That He truly knows exactly where
we are and where we need to be.
His
name is R. and he has an 8-year-old son and a 9-year-old son. We set a baptismal date with
him for July 7th and he said he wants to receive the priesthood the very next
week and then baptize his two kids. Sooooooo cool.
I
love being in this area. So much Spanish work. It was super weird cuz yesterday
we taught the only English member in our ward, and I realized how bad my English
is hahaha, I love it!

That's
so crazy that Nyal comes home this week! Give him a big hug for me. And Tyler
too. He's the best. Haha, I bet he has gone to Delski everyday this week
hahaha those two are awesome.
But
yeah, that was my week, pretty much. Oh, funny story, so I was talking to some "southern" people the other day on the street. Funniest day
of my life. Let's just say I give major props to Nyal for not laughing during
lessons. Hahaha man, gotta love the south. (Different cultures are just one of many great things about our country!)
Anyways,
Take care!
Love,
Elder
