So first off... My birthday package arrived! I got the package from the fam! So thank you very very very much! I was way pumped. I love getting some USA snacks and things from the fam. So i was really happy about that. Thank you so much! I already opened most of it... haha i could kind of feel what it all was... so i just opened it so i could enjoy it haha. So thank you very much! Im enjoying it all :) ill send a picture.
This week was a good week. Were having a really tough time with the vacations here... EVERYONE is leaving! And if theyre not leaving, theyre people that dont live in our sector and are just visitingfor the vacations and so theyre leaving in like 2 weeks! haha. Shoot. So we`ve been able to share a bunch, but theyre all people that we cant continue working with... So we just write down theyre information and send the reference to wherever the respective location is haha. So hopefully we`ll be able to find some people of our own soon!
We made really good progress with Daniela and her Menos activo boyfriend Bryan this week! They were also out of town during the week. but so we did a really good verification with them by phone during the week and left some homework for them. It helped them out alot. And then saturday night they came back into town (so they were able to go to church on sunday) and we were able to have a really awesome lesson about the law of chastity with them. Because theyre currently living together... and thats not okay. So we talked to them about it, told them they needed to either get married or seperate themselves, and they understood and accepted to do one of the two. They didnt make the decision right off the back, but we invited them to go to church the next day with a specific question for God in their mind, and promised them the He would give them some guidance if they went to church with that question in mind looking for an answer. and it was SWEET because we had happened to have already talked to the memebers that week who told us they were going to speak, and that they were going to speak about.... MARRIAGE! and the importance and blessings of marriage :D How perfect. and then the second class was going to be about Agency! And the ability we have to choose. So elder Paulson and I were WAY pumped for them to come to church with their questions in mind. haha. And they did! And we havent been able to talk to them completely about it yet, but we do know that they really liked church and got some good guidance from the talks and classes :) Its crazy how the Lord just puts everything together so it all turns out just right. So that was a cool miracle we saw this week.
andd.... another cool thing is that randomly in the week one of the hermanas from the ward called us and told us she had some old couches that she wanted to gift us. That they were still good but that she was just getting new ones. so we accepted. and so now we have two more chairs and a sofa in our house. And theyre pretty comfy. It was fantastic. haha. So wednesday night we went and picked them up. It was great and were really happy about it haha.
On thursday night we got to play futbol with the jovenes. It was the first time ive played in awhile... Its so good for you to play sports. Its so healthy. I need more exercise. I felt so good physically after playing haha. But it was cool because we got to play with them and got to kknow some of their friends that we can visit! haha. So... I still love futbol. but i also still love lacrosse. And as of now still have every intention of trying to play again when i get back.
But more than that... There are just details from the week that i wont bore you with haha. I have few pictures, so ill send the few that i have. But im loving the work. I love being a mission. I love everything that i learn, the progression ive made and the changes ive made! Im basically loving the person im becoming from all my experiences in the mission! its the greatest.
But... Ill just send the few fotos i have now. I love you all and miss you lots. Im loving the mission and i know without doubt that this is the true church of Christ and his only true Gospel. Have a fantastic week and be a good person! haha. Hasta la proxima!
