We had a good week! We invited a family we’ve been teaching to get baptized. The hermana said no because she doesn’t “feel it” yet, but come to find out she hadn’t read anything from the Book of Mormon!! The Book of Mormon is the key!! The hermano said he wanted to keep reading a little more. We had a lesson with them last night and we showed them the 20 minute video of the restoration. It was good.
I don’t know if I told you about when another person we’ve been teaching told us he was on medication for depression, but after reading the Book of Mormon every day for a week he felt like he didn’t need the medication anymore! The BOM changes lives!
Last week Elder Harrop and I went on divisions and there was a national holiday that day so there were no buses or trains. We felt like we needed to go to Sol Y Verde though, so we walked from our apartment all the way to Barrio Kishner and back which is a little over 10 miles. On the way, a kid stopped us in the street and asked if we were the Elders. Turns out, he and his brother and sister had been baptized less than a year ago and just moved here to JCP, and they didn’t know where the closest church was. So that was a cool experience.
We had an activity with Locro in the church!! That big stew thing in the huge pot is called Locro. It has a lot of stuff in it including a few pigs feet (my bowl didn’t have one and I didn’t want to push my luck so I didn’t go for a second) and cow intestine!! (as seen above my middle finger in the picture) It was actually pretty good though!!
I sent a journal pic this week!!! Those state shirts are ugly. I loved talking to you guys as well!!! I’ll call again next week! Think of specific questions that you want to ask, it is easier to think of stories and things when I get specific questions.
Love you guys. Call you next week!! OH and I looked at all the pics you’ve put up!! Thank you!!
What the heck is going on in that video of Hunter and Ian hahahahaah??
