Week 31 in Chihuahua - July 9, 2018 - Happy 4th of July

Yo yo yo yo what's good people.

 

I actually completely forgot that we just passed the 4th of July hahaha... obviously no one celebrates it here lol and so I didn't even think about it.

 

It's been a pretty good week. We were able to bring 5 to church which was a milagro (miracle)and a half.

 

And we actually had a cool spiritual experience this week as well. Ok so I think it was on Friday we were just having a rough day. Literally like 6 appointments fell through so we just had been contacting the entire day. It was extra rough because it was extremely hot outside. I told my comp that I was gonna call a bunch of investigators to see if we could visit them. So we sat down for a sec to call and no one answered.

 

We were really just tired at that point, and kinda depressed. We decided to visit a member that is always home and always lets us in. On the way to the house I just had a feeling that we needed to contact a couple people more because I didn't want the day to end bad. I felt this feeling pretty strong but I was nervous to tell my comp that I wanted to contact a little more because he seemed pretty burned out but I threw the idea out there anyways and he accepted.

 

The first door that we knocked on a lady was sitting down eating with her family and said that we can't visit her because she can't walk or something and it was a lie because my comp said he saw her walk to the table and sit down haha and then I saw a couple painting their fence and I asked them if they needed help. They said they were good but were interested in what we do. I began to explain to them what we do and they began to explain to us that they actually had been talking and looking for a church to join because they want to become closer to God.

 

And then later when we visited them the wife told us that when she saw us walking she knew that we would talk to them about her and her husband's desire to grow closer to God. They are way cool and understand the messages we are teaching. I can't wait to teach them again. I feel like I really learned a good lesson about not giving up.

 

That was the milagro of the week. I'm super tired today because I'm running on like 3 hours of sleep because we woke up at 5 just to play bball and to get kicked out of the gym hahah but I couldn't sleep last night because we had to fit 5 missionaries on 3 matresses  and the matresses are really small haha.

 

I hope everyone has a great week.
