Well. Ill start out by saying, this change is going to be a growing experience. Its been a tough week. The opposition is working strong.
Id be lying if i didnt say i wasnt a bit discourged, but thats the missionary work. The discouraging part is when you do all you can for a person, but they end up choosing the world instead. We will keep moving forward. President Mickelson, our area authority promised us that if we teach at least 30 lessons without members present, and have at least 2 Baptismal dates every week, then we will see fruits of out labor. Elder Hernandez and I decided to put him to the test.
We have been working really hard to complete our goals, and in that sense, I feel good. I know ive done my part, and theres not much more I can do. We are going to keep on working, and try to fix some problems that a few members have. Sister Dominguez, the Relief Society President is our only support here, really. She loves us and all the members.
Everytime we see her, we actually get more excited to do the missionary work.
We hope to get a baptism this sunday. We have bent over backwords to help out a family. Tomorrow they should get married, and then after church on sunday, Marisela will get baptised. She came to church alone, yesterday, so that shows that she really means it.
We did get to visit some ruins in a city nearby. They were pretty cool.
The city was established just a few years after Moroni died, so everyone was stuck in some deep apostasy, but it was fun to compare what ive seen in other places in the world.
Thats so awesome that Jonny got his call. I knew he was gonna speak Spanish somewhere. 3 in Texas. We are just meant to teach the Texans and the Mexicans.
Have a great week everyone
