Hello my beautiful email list, honestly every week in here is crazy fast I feel like I got here yesterday, but definitely a fun week
On this weeks top story lets talk about the most anticlimactic night of my life. So basically, this family invited us to their family home evening and they said they were bringing a non member family for us to teach. Now for a missionary, that is straight gold. So me and Elder Jones were like dude were dunking them all lets go. So we pull up, turns out its a mom and her daughter, AND THEY LIVE IN BOLIVIA! Like what on earth were we supposed to do, the sad thing is they were super interested and we totally wouldve baptized them. We even asked how long they were gonna be here in case we could have quickly baptized them and sent them off. But they literally were leaving the next day. Its okay, the mom basically just told us how impressed she was that 2 gorgous young men were spending 2 years of our lives serving the Lord. Gained some self confidence in the process so
Anyone that said ya boi was gonna get dawged on in fútbol here was just wrong. We had a noche de fútbol activity at the church on Friday and i was dogging on the Kids there. They're some Kids that are cracked but Elder Clouse is him. I may see 1000 stray dogs a day but safe to say im the only DAWG here
Also its become a tradition here that everyday we find one "crazy person" Someone that just like tries to bible bash us and call us rascist or something. Im like bro go read this book of mormon then come back and talk. You know how i know the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is the only true church. Because anyone can gain a testimony on their own of this church. We dont have to be preaching to you for you to know our church is true. Anyone person that truly wants to know if this is the true church can read the book of mormon and find out. I testify that it is the most correct book on the earth today, it answers your questions, and you WILL feel closer to God after reading it.
Alright now that I just converted every non member on this list I'll continue hehe. OH YA, i totally forgot we did an "intercambio" or a comp switch on Wednesday and it was so fun. I went with this dude Elder Bigler for the day and I was just like im sending it today. So I basically just started talking w everyone I saw and I was prolly hittin them with sentences that made no sense but my confidence was at an all time high. I even challenged a family to be baptized cause im just him(they said no). But right before we left, we stopped this one lady and she started crying when we gave her a book of mormon, lowkey almost put me in tears. The great thing about missionary work is you can get rejected 1000 times but the minute someone accepts its all worth it.
Also we got a baptism this week. You know what that means. Me and Elder Jones only get oreos and chocolinas(chocolate crackers) if we baptize. So safe to say nothing hit more different than breaking your fast with an oreo. But thats besides the point, we baptized this women named Yuri, her daughters were the ones that help me with spanish and I love them, but it was so cool to see Yuri enter into the covenant path. We got one more left in the family until they are a complete family, so were gonna be working with their son to get him baptized but i am so grateful for the oppourtunity I have to be in this area with these people!
Closing with a promise I love from President Nelson. There are 5 promises we recieve from reading the book of mormon everyday
1. We will make better decisions
2. The Windows of heaven will open for us
3. We will receive answers to our prayers
4. You will receive direction in life
5. Satan will have less power over you
Im so grateful my mission is so focused on the book of mormon. This book has changed my life and it can change yours. I challenge you to read the book of mormon everyday this and you will see those 5 promises take action in your life!🐑
