After we went and found a new investigator that was alright, named juliana. After that we put together a lot of little lessons that didnt last to long but were still pretty effective. Then we had a super awesome leson with Karina and the hermana lopez. If you guys can please do visits with the missionaries.. it really makes all the difference. Overall today was a pretty good day.
Viernes: Started a division this mornign with Elder Quintana from Peru. He is a good guy, seems prety cool and is about 2/3 of the way done with his mision. WEstarted the day off super well and had a great amount of stuf accomplished before lunch. then after lunch the day just fell through. We have been planning alot better as a mission recently and i have never had a day where no plan for 5 hours went through.. it made for a lot of contacting and finding new places to teach but it seemed like not that meany peopole wanted to listen to us for some reason. We did have a super good lesson with the kid of an investigador who nknew almost nothing about religion.. it was intresting to teach him but went really well. Then we visited the maritniez family and the swung by matías and Ilsa it ended up being a prety tiring and tough day but it was preety good.
Sabado: Switched back to be with elder phippen and then we started to work. We had a good lesson with the wife of an old investigador who was very catholic. It went really well actually and then we headed home to cook our own lunch. After that we went and had good lessons with Christian a 17 year old kid who seemed pretty cool , and with rueben who was cool but travels a lot.. after that we went and visited sandra who just keeps getting stronger and strogner. after that we went and had a good lesson with cecilio a new guy we are teaching as well, hopefully someone will be able to get o church of all these people we are teaching though. After that we went and visited Eva whose kidswhere going crazy!! it was insane but it was funny at the end haha. After that we went and visited Ariel who said that he would be in church the next day so thats super good!
Domingo: TOday was good we had 67 people in church with 1 less active and 1 investigator. unfortunatley it wasnt lucy who went so we will have to postpone her baptism again... its a strugle. I had to give a talk in church and choose to gave it on the importance of scripture study. It went well and i felt liked at least some people listened hahah. After that we went to lunch and then started teaching we went by alexadrias house and then had a meeting at the stake center with all ward leaders and our mision president. It went really well and hopefully we will be able to get a little more memebr support this upcoming months.
