Hello everybody!!!!!
wow what a week! this place is nuts so much to do so much to learn so many people to teach and help and invite to come unto Christ!! its nuts! so probably the best part of the week was when we were teaching fernando of course and in walks one of his friends as usual and just starts listening to the lesson but he doesnt really speak french just spanish so fernando is like' keep teaching!!' so we do then we read a scripture and his friend is like 'mormon??' and were like ya!! and hes like 'i was baptized mormon in santo domingo! (dominican republic)' WHAT!!! ive only been praying for that my whole mission! to run into a member of the church! just like par hasard! just like out of no where! and he was like YA FERNANDO GET BAPTIZED!! so hes getting baptized the 30 of may. stoked stoked! he is so awesome fernando! another miracle was we were oging to teacfh him last night after he came to church :) and as were driving up hes walking to his house next to a lady and he offers to help her with the coconuts she was holding. he offerred her service! i dont know but it was precious to me!! so then we talked about service and callings and acted out the good samaritan with him. its fun to be a missionary :)
oh my gosh theres some stories i just dont want to tell you. haha like how we have a truck right. ya well its INFESTED with cockroaches! it is SO DUSGUSTING! hahaha me and my comp had to kill a bunch monday night because relief society gave us some cookies to give to a family. that was crazy!!
man so the members here just like LOVE the missionaries! ewpeically Leno who is basically our coahc the one who trains us in soccer.. haha because some missionaries are leaving like my comp and the missionary who baptized Leno, he had us all over for munch after church :) it was so nice! and he was like 'ALL OF YOU ARE INVITED TOMORROW NIGHT FOR AN FHE' haha even though someone had already invited us all and then he shut the door and was like 'NO IM LOCKING YOU IN TIL TOMORROW NIGHT THEN' hahahahaha he loves the missionaries! it is so nice to feel loved! then you can really just like magnify your calling!!!!!!!
oh also were teaching leno's daughter who has kinda of a hearing problem. her name is ashley shes the other girl in the pic. she is SO CUTE! i love teaching her! shes like dying to be baptized so we just need to talk to her mom.. shes so awesome..
so guyane is the best. and these last few months of my mission i will be TRAINGIN!!!! i get a new girl! let me tell you a story that elder cornish told me. ( of the 70) its called that there was this boy who earned a living for him and his mom through his cow right? but he asks the wise man who comes to town how he can make more money because he wanted more money, like everyohne! so the wise man looks at his property and his house and his cow and walks over and pushes the cow off the cliff and the cow dies and the boys like WHAT!! and the wise man is like 'youll thank me later' so the wise man comes back a couple years later and theres this huge house in the town and he asks 'whos house is that' and the poieple are like'the boy that you killed his cow!!' so basically. KILL THE COW PEOPLE. theres things were doing because were used to it and its NOT WORKING. or not producing our potential. so thats why im excited to traing because thsi new missionary will have NO COWS! and im not letting any cows come up in my life!!!!
so life rocks! i love being a missionary and ready for my new comp!
