Heyoo!
This week was a good week. We were able to work hard and find some new people. As we were going to a lesson, some young 'uns started to yell at us in English, just saying stuff like Hello, How are you, Good morning (at 5:30 in the afternoon), so we just kind of ignored them because we had a teaching appointment to get to a little farther up the road. We knocked on the door, and no one was there, so I turned to my comp and asked if he wanted to go contact them, and he just kind of shrugged and said ok. So we went up to them and started talking to them, and they were just completely shocked that we could speak Spanish, it was kind of funny, but we talked to them about the restoration. Just a little funny experience.
On Saturday there were two baptisms in the branch, one was a boy named Oliver, and the other was our investigator Alex. It was awesome! Elder Rodriguez baptized both of them, and it was a really special day for everyone. It was great to see the support of the branch for these 2 guys. Then, we had General Conference on Saturday and Sunday. It was the first time I watched all of it in Spanish (#GratefulThatICanUnderstandSpanishNow). It was super good. My favorite talk was by Elder Craig Zwick. He talked about putting Jesus Christ at the center of our lives. It is more important that we do that now, more than ever, not only to bless our lives, but to be able to see other people as the Savior sees them. As we do that, we will be able to serve and bless their lives in amazing ways. Anyway, have a good week everyone!
