Well
I don't have a lot of time this week because we went to TOLEDO!!! Just
the best place ever. But I will try my best to fill you all in on what
has happened this week and send a ton of sweet photos. We will see how
it goes...
So
we had the mission leadership council this week on Tuesday and so the
zone leaders from the north and the islands were with us on Monday and
that meaannss Elder Echegaray!! We went out and contacted on Monday
night and killed it in the street together. We got some sweet references
and it was really good to be back working with him. He's the best. I
love him haha.
Basically
the story of this week has been that we have been getting really close
to finding new investigators but we haven't had any success. We set up
and confirmed around 6 or 7 lessons with new investigators and every
single one ended up bailing on us or just not showing up. It was a
little difficult and frustrating but we can't make people hear our
message! We kept working hard throughout the whole week though and we
are hoping to find some news this week.
One
cool thing was that we had this amazing lesson with Vladimir and
promised him that if he were to read, pray and come to church, he would
have the desires to get baptized on the 11th of October. He accepted the
invitation and seemed excited about it. He ended up not coming to
church on Sunday though so that was kind of difficult.
Good
news though is that Baltazar is amazing! He has come to church 5 times
in a row and although he is super mysterious and doesn't want to set a
baptismal date, he is progressing really well!
One
of the highlights of the week was an activity that we had on Saturday
with the ward. We did a party of the nations or fiesta de las naciones
and it turned out reaaaally well! We made brownies and danced to Cotton
Eye Joe which was unbelievably epic. I cut up my arm a bit right before
we went on in a freak dancing accident but I still made it through. It
was suuper fun and we grew a lot closer to the members here.
Excited for next week! I know that the Lord has many blessings in store for us.
Love you all!
