Ok oh sorry last week I didn't have very much time to write. We were with
our ward mission leader and his wife pretty much the whole day and his
wife was teaching me how to cook Mexican food so I can make it when I
get home...yummy. I made mole which is a super classic Mexican dish.
Last
week was great, though, and this week is going to be suuuper good to. We
have an investigator named Sergio who has about a year listening to the
missionaries. He isn't married but he is living with a less active
member of the church. We are super happy because they are getting
married in the morning on Tuesday and he is getting baptized Tue night. The brother of the less active member is named Miguel Angel, and we
baptized him about three months ago, I think. It is happy to help less
active families come back to church.
Also yesterday was probably one of
the best days of the whole mission because one of the areas that we have
hermanas has about a year that their ward hasn't baptized and
everyone in the mission always prays that they won't get sent to the Crespa, but yesterday the hermanas baptized 3 people. It was a great
baptism because everyone was so happy. One thing I have learned a lot
in the mission is a lot depends on our attitude here in the mission and
in life.
Anyway, not a lot happened this week because I spent most of the
week in other areas...oh ya, I remember a story from this week. We were
working to find new people to teach in an area, and a lady passed that I
felt like we should contact but we were late to go to lunch with a
member so I didn't contact her. But then I kept thinking about her and
thinking about her until I told my companion we had to go find the lady
in blue. We had no idea where she went, so we spent a good amount of time
looking for her until we saw her in a store, so we waited outside. When
we finally talked to her, she was super happy and said that she had gone
to our church many times and loved going but she had lost contact with
the missionaries and they stopped visiting. What I learned from that
experience is your life will be a lot better off and easier if you listen
to the spirit the first time.
Oh yea, I also ate brain this week for the first time in my life. Brain
tacos are actually one of the most expensive tacos they have.... it was
actually the yummiest taco I have ever eaten.
