Hey family this was another pretty good week, with lots of
ups and downs. With new challenges
and new investigators. This week
we re found an investigator, Gabriela.
She is 16 years old. After about 2 weeks of looking for her house we
finally found it. I guess I noted her cell phone number wrong when she gave it
to me 2 weeks ago. So we were not able to communicate with her or find her
house. One day we asked another of our investigators and she said knew her from
school and told us where she lived. On Saturday night we went to see her, we
found her and the rest of her family. During this 2-week period she had read
the Book of Mormon and Moroni 10 3-5. She said that she prayed, and she said
she received an answer. She had a
strong feeling about the BOM and just knew that the Book of Mormom was
true. She did all of that without
the help of the missionaries. We were pretty shocked when she told us all of
that. Its people like this, that are prepared to receive the gospel.
Giraldo. the professional soccer player is doing well. We
give him scriptures to read through text messages and he calls his mom and
explains what he has learned.
We had to say goodbye to President Heaton this week. We all
had quick minute interview with him and his wife. In the interview they thanked
me for serving a mission, and for being such a great missionary. President
Heaton thanked me for training again.
They also thanked me for being with a few tough Latino companions, that
they felt like my example will help them stay active after the mission. I
really appreciated those comments.
For my birthday a member threw a surprise party for me. She
called me to the house saying that a light bulb blew out and she was too short
to change it. Asking if I could come and change it. We walked into the dark house and we couldn’t see anything,
and then the lights came on, people starting singing happy birthday in English.
It was quite a surprise for people from the ward to come to throw a surprise
party for me. They made me a cake and hot chocolate. Pretty fun.
Answers I did receive the packages all 4. Thanks so much.
Thanks so much family.
I love you guys so much.
