Has it really already been another week?! I`m finally starting to know my way around, and people are starting to recognize me as that new American missionary that doesn`t really know Spanish but is always smiling (someone told that to my companion this week...little did he know, I could understand him). Haha I love this work and it is truly guided by The Lord.
Did I tell you about our new investigador that`s our other investigator`s son? Well during our lesson about the Plan of Salvation, he got really frustrated and juts walked out on us...that was a little awkward and we didn`t really know what to do, BUT we called him that night and he let us come over the next day. That lesson the next day was the most amazing thing I have every experienced. We taught about the Atonement and I didn`t even have to think about the Spanish as I shared with him my own personal conversion process and how I have come to know Jesus Christ as my Savior and Redeemer. Since then, I have seen the light of Christ increase in him, and I can`t wait to see his continued progress.
Sooooo yesterday we went tracting FOREVER. And we were having no success. We had doors slammed in our faces, people tell us we were of the devil, and it was just kind of discouraging. But as we were walking, I felt pro.
mpted to stop and look at our list of references/contacts. As we evaluated our list, I noticed one name we had overlooked before. Gloria. It just so happened we were standing at the crossroad of the street she lives on and the one we had been walking along. We went and visited her. We were able to get to know her and taught her how to pray. I believe the Lord has prepared her and guided us to her. She excitedly invited us to visit her again this week.
I absolutely love love love Mèxico. Sure it`s hard, and I`m still adjusting to all the little cultural differences, but I wouldn`t change this experience for anything.
I love you all so much! Thank you for your love, support, and prayers.
