This week went by really fast! Let me try to remember what all happened...
Well,
Hna Clark and I had a lot of awkward moments this week. Some super
awkward contacts.. and we even had to run away from a few doors! I wont
do into all the details, but I will say that I am so grateful that we
are able to laugh those things of and continue to work hard!
This
week we received a phone call from a random person. She introduced
herself and we found our that she is a member and she had an
investigator for us! (always super nice to hear as a missionary) She
invited us to dinner to meet this person. And that was about all the
details we had haha. So, the night the dinner came around and while we
were walking over, I realized that only as a missionary would I have the
confidence to go to a strangers house, to meet strangers, and teach
them the most life changing news they will ever hear. We had no idea
what was going to happen. However, it ended up being the most ideal
situation! Like, the experiences that you read about in Preach My
Gospel. Turns out that Ricardo is the boyfriend of Sonia (the member,
baptized three years ago) and we were there to teach him. He told us
that he had bad experiences with missionaries before but was willing to
listen (which made me super nervous cause I was afraid of messing up) We
had dinner with them and it was super great because we got them
laughing, then we moved into the living to have a lesson and the spirit
was soo strong!! We were able to invite him to be baptized and he said
yes!! He is getting baptized on Halloween!! :) And it was so sweet
because the first thing that his girlfriend said after he accepted was
"Aww..Podemos tener una familia eterna!" (We can have an eternal family)
It just broke my heart. Because it is so true! I am so grateful for the
Spirit that we felt and for member missionary work! :)
Yep, other than that I am still loving the work!! I am learning something new everyday!
I love you all! Have an amazing week! :)
