I was at a members house for thanksgiving. We had rice and meat, which is pretty common here but it was good all the same. They said ´todays a holiday in the united states right´ lol I had completely forgot. Oh yea todays thanksgiving. I have a horrible memory for dates.
As far as how my week went, we were excited to see two of our investigators: Karen Lopez and her mother in law Nancy come to church. We met Karen about a month ago and she is golden. She said she wants to come to church in the first lesson without us even talking about church. When we invited her to be baptized she said she was already baptized but she wants to be baptized again. Her husband also shares with us and hes also awesome but hes a little more anxious about going to church has in the past been a barrier because he always has chores and things for the family to do on sundays. His mother Nancy is also great and she is grateful to us for coming to share the word of god with her son who apparently has been distanced from god for a long time. He is off traveling for his work and Karen took the opportunity to come to church :)The little child of Karen was also with her. He is two and a half years old and kind of a little monster. During the sacrament he went off running through the pews and stood on the front pew in front of everyone for about two minutes and then came back. Luckily theres a member who always gives the missionaries juice and snacks(not exactly sure why) but I used it to share with little alexander and it seemed to help him sit still. Luckily its a family ward and it happens sometimes. The ward seemed to understand. I really hope Karen wasnt embarrased. It reminded me of me when I was a kid haha. We separated for priesthood and releif society and after that they just went home, we couldnt catch them before they left. it was kind of weird but were going to visit them this week to see how their experience was. I am praying they had a good experience.Well thats pretty much it. There are other people were working with but as of right now theyre the ones Im most excited about because they actually came to church.Thats all for now. I hope every one at home is doing really well. I love you all very much. Have a great week.
