Hola mis amigos wow what a fast week. But ohhhh myy I dont think i can fit into words how much happened
Im starting with a funny story because I love doing that. But me and my comp were just chillin talking to these Kids one day and we look over and just like 5 cop cars whip around the corner. We just started walking away but people who were like 20 feet away from us got absolutely SWATTED. It was insane. Just like 20 cops hop out with shottys and threw like 5 people to the ground. It was kinda hilarious. Dont worry mom my área isnt alway like this, just a highlight of the week
Also before I talk about my favorite part of this week lets talk about what I HATED. It was FREEZING. If you know me I literally hate being cold. Its like my kryptonite. Safe to safe it was pouring straight Rain for 2 days straight and it was freezing. However thanks to my first transfer of straight cold showers I was numb. But the work was so hard. There was literally nobody in the streets and the only thing keeping me warm was the spirit. Its okay I survived
Buttttt now to the title of this email. Yesterday (sunday) ELDER RENLUND came to our stake center and gave a talk. It was literally the greatest talk i have ever heard and it was in english so it made it so easy to understand. Dont worry they had a translator. But that was the most people ive seen in one church building maybe ever. There was like 100 people standing in the back because there wasnt enough seats oh my. He dropped an hour long talk of just straight heat AND THEN he shook EVERY SINGLE PERSONS HAND. Thats right, i got to shake Elder Renlund's hand (it was very soft)
And as if they wasnt awesome enough, our mission had a conference of the ENTIRE MISSION. Every single BAE missionary in one Place. What for you might ask..
Because not 1 but 2 people from the 70 came and talked to our mission specifically. Yes we shook there hands too. Still havent washed my right hand (prolly never will).
These experiences have taught me to things
1. This church is so true its not even funny.
I literally dont understand how people dont think our church is true. The spirit was basically visible during Elder Renlund's talk and I would be suprised if there was someone in that room that doesnt get baptized.
2. How Lucky I am to be a missionary
The mission is hard, but the rewards are unlike anything, i love my mission, my área, the work, EVERYTHING. Yesterday was such an amazing experience for me I loved it!
This week was definitely a challenge. And this is the first time in my mission thats it not because of the language. As far as spanish its not really a barrier for me gospel wise. But im really not seeing the success I want. However, all it makes me want to do is work harder. If your not seeing success, work until you see it. Sheesh that was a bar.
Go read one of Elder Renlund's talks hes a G!
