Hola mi familia!!
This week was pretty good!! Sorry a head of time, the space bar on this computer sucks and it is making me really frustrated.
So on Monday we went to Parana to have a special pday. That
is when we can get together with our whole zone. We went to a park thing by the
river and ate and did a slack line. It was really fun and I got to see elder Poulton from the MTC which was the first time since we were in NC together.
This week I have been working on choosing to be happy. I was
realizing that I was not being as happy as I should have been and it helped me
to have a better week and stay more positive. I also got dad´s letter finally
and that was great thank you!
Mom I wanted to ask you if you have had any more news about that job you were trying to get? you told me
about the interview and then I never heard
more.
This week I have had a cold for most of the week. I am
feeling a ton better now but still not 100%... It is funny because it seems
like everyone i talk to has their own way of
curing a cold. Nyquil is the key. I could
use some more though when you can send some :)
We did some service on Wed. and we helped a member from
Parana paint our church. He just had us stain the doors and one wooden wall
(staining is still the worst... even in Argentina) but the church looks a lot
better. I am not sure how much the sisters in the branch like it but we like
it.
So German had an interview with Pres Britos yesterday so
that he can receive the priesthood next Sunday! We are really excited about
that! I want him to have it so when his mom finally comes around he will be
able to baptize his own mom. How cool would that be??
On Saturday we were headed to look for a few people who used
to talk with the missionaries and we passed this group of people with a huge
fridge in the back of a pickup truck. We offered to help and we ended up chatting
with them for a few minutes. They were super
nice and in the end they invited us to a party! The party was really fun but I
think we were the only ones not drunk...... JUST KIDDING. We obviously didn't
go! hahah
So last night we were going to spend a lot of time
contacting because we are needing more investigators. Turns out the 2 biggest
soccer teams in Argentina were playing against the 2 teams from Rosario. Long
story short, no one was answering the door.... We decided to go visit this less
active named German. (this turned out to be an answer to my prayer. I asked for
the help to find 1 person ready to hear the gospel) We get there and his aunt is
in town with her friend. They are both English teachers and her friend,
Facundo, speaks really well!! I fully believe he is ready to accept the gospel
in his life. He doesn't live here in Nogoya but he is going to meet the
missionaries where he lives in Federal. Heavenly Father is listening, but
sometimes the answers are not what we are expecting!
I love you all! Have another great week!!
