Hola!!

Hello Everyone!
Hope everyone had a good week last week. This week was pretty good for us. So I'll start from the beginning of the week.

  SO not much happened during the beginning of the week. On Wednesday we had the conference with the Mission President. They are always good, we always learn a lot and it helps us focus a bit more. But other than that, not too much out of the ordinary happened this week. I guess I'll just talk about the investigators and stuff.
  So we've been looking for more people a lot this week, people who are going to progress. Most of the time we get into the house the first time, teach the lesson, but then for the 2nd appointment they're never there. It's a bit frustrating at times. For example looking back at Tuesday we had a day full of appointments, but only 1 actually happened. But looking for more people has been fruitful. So on Thursday we talked to a young kid in the street named Ricardo. We talked to him for a bit, then we got an appointment for Friday. We came back with a member that day, and it turns out they used to be neighbors a while back. The appointement went really good, he accepted a day to get baptized, and accepted to going to church. And he did come to church and had a good experience. So he is someone we are going to focus on, I'm pretty sure he'll be getting baptized sometime soon.
  Also on Thurdsay we had a cool spiritual experience. So we were about to head to lunch, but we decided to take the long route to lunch. So on the way we found a person we contacted and taught a while back but haven't found since. It turns out she was not too good, her neice committed suicide. So we shared with her and she said she felt better. It just goes to show you that the Lord has a reason for everything, even if it means walking an extra 5 minutes.
  Another cool experience, we went and taught this lady a bit at her fence, then got a return appointment for the following day. So we came back and her neice was there, who happens to be a new convert to the church. There we had a super good lesson, and the neice 'happened' to have her written down testimony with her, something she normally doesn't carry around. SO the lesson went really well, and it just goes to show you, again, that this is the Lords work, and that he is always helping us.
  Ok, so one final spiritual experience. So remember last week we taught Carolina? I forgot to write last week something she told us. She said that we really have helped her in her life a lot. She said one day that she was about to leave and go do something stupid, but someone knocked at the door and guess who it was. Us. This week really helped me realize how much we can see the Lords hand in our everyday lives.
  So among other investigators...Juan Carlos escaped from his moms house and went to his grandmas. This lead to his mom being mad, so she didn't let Jocelyn get confirmed this week. Ugh. And Juan Carlos still hasn't gotten the signature. Ugh. There's only so much we can do, and they rest, the other people have to do.
  Also, we decided to go see an old investigator. Not sure if you remember Natalia, she lives like 20 minutes away in bus, and is 9. The only thing keeping her from getting baptized is that its hard for the family to come to church on Sundays, due to lack of transportation and money. But the good news is that it'll be easier for them to come to church now because the dad isn't working on Sunday, and the missionary who baptized the parents of Natalia will be coming here in March, and they want him to baptize Natalia. So hopefully that will give them the boost they need to get to church.
  Well, I think thats about all I got for you guys. So I love you all, the church is true, and I'll write you all next week!
¡Chao!
