¡Hola!
Well,
this was a good week. We´ve been teaching more, and finding more
people. And we had an investigator come to church Sunday! His name is
Miguel and we might have kind of hauled him to church....but he stayed
for all three hours and the ward has kind of taken him under their wing
so it was awesome!
We´ve been working a lot with the
members to try and get them more involved in missionary work. ***BEWARE
PREACHING IS ABOUT TO START*** Because we can work in the calles all day
long and find a few people, but if we´re to start finding people who
really have potential we need references from the members...which we
don´t get all the often because the majority of them only talk with
their family and their friends from church...sigh... BUT we´re working
on it. We´re going to change the culture here in Chuburná.
Moral of the story is: give the missionaries references. They really need them.
Like
I said last week, we´ve been working with the menos activos a lot and
since my family sent me like 15 POUNDS of candy...does that say
something about me???... we´ve been using that as motivation. haha If
the niños will sit and listen to a scripture story they get candy at the
end.
Works every time. haha
Although, one
time this week we should up at the home of a menos activo and this seven
year old saw us and immediately said, ¨Hermanas, no tengo tiempo¨
(Sisters I don´t have time) in this really exaggerated drawn out way.
But what was the funniest is that we hear that a lot in day...a
lot...but it doesn´t usually come from a seven year old. hahah I
literally burst out laughing. I love kids. haha
Hermana
Castro and I get along really well - although she told me this week that
I´m muy cerrada (closed)...woops... But we work really well together,
and she keeps me laughing. Although I think she´s found every single
slug bug in Chuburná in order to hit me.
And there are a LOT here.
