Hello everyone,
Sorry I didn't write
yesterday, we were helping some people in the zone move from house to house, so
here we are emailing now. This past week was interesting. Some really cool things
happened, and also some really dumb things happened. First, the cool things!
So
we had another sweet temple trip with this lady named M. C. She
is virtually a single mom with two really sharp kids, R. (11) and J. (7).
The reason she is single is because her husband was a bit of a problematic
person who decided to take the wrong path. None of us had ever met him though.
Until that night at the temple trip! He decided to join along and he was very
impressed, felt the spirit, and received a "reality check" and
realized he had to change. So we set an appointment with him for a later
date.
Another cool thing: Long story
short, this really humble couple straight from Jalisco basically invited
themselves to be baptized and are going strong.
Last Cool thing: So we were walking
around on Friday and then all of a sudden we stopped and Elder Blanchard asked
if we could say a prayer, so of course we did. Elder Blanchard prayed
specificlly that we could find a family ready to receive us. Later on, we
knocked on a door and the neighbor opened up! The neighbor is a maid at one of
our investigators' house, super humble lady who has a husband and a kid. Sounds
like a family to me... So we are going by her seperately now. Awesome!
Dumb things: So a newer missionary
in our district managed to have one of his investigators fall in love with him
so they passed them off to us. But now they don't want to get baptized... So
that has been cool...
Dumb thing 2: So T., M's husband guy, received a text from us confirming the appointment we had. Then he
responded a bit negatively and was all machista and didn't let us go over... So
that was that.
But all in all, it's been a good
time here in Lincoln Heights, I am learning a lot! I can't imagine what I could
teach others haha, but I guess we will find out! Love you all!!
