This
week we had interchanges with the zone leaders. I went with Elder
Massey in his area in Quezada. It was a really good time. We were able
to teach a lot of lessons. Something that he is all about is teaching
really simple short lessons, We don't need to spend 45 minutes
explaining every concept of the restoration. We can just give really
simple lessons with a couple principles to invite the spirit and teach
simple truths. And also sometimes people get bored if you try to teach a
lot. haha It was a really good day, even though I got a little
sunburned.
The next day we went to
immigration (I never thought I would go back there again) haha. My
companion this time had to go take out his residency. haha.
A
family that the other elders are teaching were getting married and
roasted a pig for the wedding, But we were there when they killed the
pig...... It was a little terrifying. They tied up the pig and smacked
it on the head with a hammer to knock it unconscious, then they slit
its throat open so it would bleed out and die...But i bet it was
delicious at the wedding! The elders also moved out of our house this
week, so now there is a little more peace. haha And we have been able
to clean up the house a lot more.
This week
has been a little rough, because we have been dropping a ton of our
investigators because no one was progressing. So this week we will have
to work hard to find basically a new teaching pool. But there are
always people ready to hear our message.
This
morning we also had the opportunity to do some service. We helped these
people at a tortilleria carry in their mountain of firewood. Fun stuff!
Also it is now August! Wow time flies. Have a great week!
