Well this week was good. I'm getting to know the sector better and we are finding really great people to teach. Losing some others but praying for them as well. We are trying to work with the members more and really inspire them to this work. The work of the members is so dang important and really we are nothing without them so we've been focusing a lot on that this week.
So this week...
we had someone tell us we focus too much on Christ. HA! Never! Quite the opposite.
We happened to be at the church when another meeting was starting and the stake president asked us to come in. i sat down and for a second felt really funny because everyone was dressed up and i hadn't come prepared... then I realized that I’m always dressed up. lol.
We found a great family with 3 teenagers and they all just listened to us so intently and kept asking questions and it was just great. The people here in general are AMAZING because they get it and the gospel just makes sense. They work a lot more here in the city so we have short hours to teach everyone and the only thing that holds them back I would say is that they are scared or that it's just easier to keep to what they've been living their whole life. But they're cool. They’ve all had the same face lately of just "oh. That makes sense." And it makes me smile every time! Because it does! It just makes sense. In your head and in your heart. The church is true!
I love you! Hope your week is great! Have you seen the missionaries lately? Oh my. The members are great to us here. We don't have to pay to clean our clothes and one of them just brought us jam just because and he just gave us more minutes for our cell phone which was like SO nice! And like SO needed! (He then asked me to talk on Sunday but that's beside the point)
Oh i don't remember our address. We live on the corner of padre hurtado y vicuna makenna en Los Angeles baby!
Also i love the cartoons from mom and Tate. They’re a little too true. The missionary ones anyways. If you want to know more about the mission just read the missionary cartoons.
Love you all and miss you!
