Familia how it goes for all those back yonder Oeste, ustedes parecen
tan triste especialmente con la comienza de escuela jajajaja! This
week was pretty sweet not going to lie. I will give you a money update
on some of the investigators this week and some of the action out here
in the South.
Monserrat Castillo: I might have elaborated on her already but
basically she is an eternigator because her less active boyfriend
(have2 kids) and her won't get married for reasons of the unknown. She
isn't baptized and it is a difficult subject for her because she knows
what she needs to do. We met with her two days this week and we read
with her 2 Nephi 31 and talked to her about the importance of obeying
God's commandments and then she listened to a talk by President Eyring
called "Este Dia". Really trying to help her have the faith to talk
with her boyfriend about making steps towards an eternal family. The
BF has no testimony and so we really want to meet with him and teach.
Prayers all day every day.
Ramon Rodriguez: Honestly this is one of my favorite people I have met
on my mission. Ramon is the nicest most humble hispano Ive met here
and he has a sincere desire to learn about the Gospel and learn
English! He has such a sad story. Back in November his wife had passed
away from cancer and before that she had been previously pregnant for
7 months and lost the baby as well. Sobbing both him and I talked
about are experiences relating to death and the Plan of Salvation. I
am so thankful to know that God's plan for us is to be together after
this life in his presence. That the relationships we build here are
eternal and matter to God. And now he is here with no family working
and sending money back to Mexico. He came to all 3 hours of church and
really loved it. We were teaching him awhile ago but he fell off the
wagon but eventually one of the members he works with reached out to
him and basically set an appointment for us! Miracles baby.
Miriam Nunez: Lost sheep alert!! Elder Ney and I were out contacting
on a street and we peeped across to the other side and saw a few
Hispanic little girls! We went and talked to the family and their was
Miriam (who is the Mother) and we introduced ourselves and she told us
that she is a MEMBER!! Has been inactive for a few years and was
baptized a few years ago. She is in a really tough situation right now
and we are not sure if she is going to stay in town but we went over
last night with our Branch President and we hope that will help. She
is a really nice lady but really needs the faith to take some steps in
life back to te Gospel. Will update more on her later!
Bug Fest: One of the companionships here was helping someone move from
one government project housing to another. The place was absolutely
filthy. I have never been in a hope of that magnitude of sucio. Pero
lo qué pasó es que we were moving furniture in and out and I pulled
off the back on a recliner and I Kidd yall not, the sand storm of bugs
erupted from the furniture. Someone bought us poison and so we went on
a cockroach rampage which I will not lie I felt like I got a Chopper
Gunner in Call of Duty hahaha.
Elder Ney: great guy, still adjusting to mission life, spanish, and a
crazy companion hahaha. I sometimes feel bad for him with the language
barrier but I have been taking him to English areas as well to give
him some experience! I am going to help him speak this language and to
teach the people!
We are still riding bikes:) squad pic next week!
Prophecies in 1 Nephi 13 are unreal. Give it a read. Love y'all y Les Quiero
