what another great great week here in south america! you know i always had the feeling id serve here! man it is so fun!!
WHAT DO I EVEN SAY!! all i can say is weve seen a lot of progress me and my dearest companion, in our area. ITS AWESOME! I attribute it all to the number of copies of the book of mormon we give out. SO MANY! daily! this book is true! this gospel is true! ANYWAYS! some fruits of oiur giving out eh boo of mormon labors were manifested in some AWESOME phone calls we received this week! hint: rarely ever do people call the missionaries, unless theyre AWESOME!!
so it was friday night and we had just taught our wonderufl ami FERNANDO!! 14. so awesome. he loves loves studying with us. and we had the talent show that night where i was a soldier singing we are all enlisted with the relief society and got to wear pants!! see the photo :) but ya so we had talent show and as were like on the way there fernando calls and is like 'madame!' yes he calls us madame haha were trying to change that hahaha but he says 'madame where are you.... i have 4 friends who want to study!!' haha but we had talent show! so then we passed by saturday and taught him and all hes friends again and he was like 'give them the book give them the book!' he told us like all week he couldnt come to church and then sunday morning he called us and was like 'madame! i need a ride to church!' haha and brought his bro and cousin. love him!!
another sweet phone call! we found this guy contacting at 8 oclock and went back and taught him and gave him a book of mormon and he was sweet! originally we had found his like wife but she wasnt there that day. but then saturday she calls us and says 'HEY! when are you gonna bring me that book!!!' haha UH TOUTE DE SUITE! RIGHT AWAY! and we went right away :) and she was awesome!
THEN!! friday night again we get a phone call and its this girl we had given a book of mormon too the wek previously and was like 'so is nephi like moses, i dont understand!' and we explained it to her and passed the next night and she had like felt so much peace just from reading like 5 pgaes in the book.
so these calls might sound lame but to a missionary it was GOLD!! haha THE BOOK OF MOMON IS THE BEST! it really helped us this week! and every week!
so ya we had a talent show and church was great! and i had soccer practice this morning! the branch loves missionaries its so fun!
OH MY GOSH AND OF COURSE!! we found a less active this week/ her name is angeline! we went by and heard from her cuz shes the sister of a recent convert!!!! anyways we went by just to meet her and she let us right in and we read with her and she cried and was like 'i want to come ack to church! now is the time! i want me and my family to come back!!' so that was awesome too. life is great i tell ya!
im grateful for family and the chuirch and God's plan for us! i love being a member of this church! we are so blessed!
