The work is going well. We are still working really hard at finding new people. This coming up week we will be doing a small district blitz where we will have our entire district come and doing finding in our area to try and mix up the teaching pool. We are pretty much putting our work in the Lords hands, we have decided that it not only is the only smart thing to do but it is what He wants. We have dropped most of our investigators, those who really didn't have the desire to progress and didn't have a true desire to learn the gospel but would rather just "be friends" and we are trusting in the Lord that He can and will help us based on our effort and obedience.
We do still have that English Teacher named M*****. She is really trying. We really want to get her in church and try to bring some people who speak English to the lessons. I think this can help her to feel more comfortable in Church and with all of us here. We were able to meet here this week but she wasn't able to come to church. We really feel like she can be baptized in the near future if she can feel the push from spirit to keep going. She has lots of great questions and she is really trying to do what is right. I pray that she will receive and answer in the near future.
Anziano G********* and I had a very unique experience yesterday. we got split up for about 30 min. I had gotten on a train coming home from the Ranieri home(our branch president) and my companion was right behind me, but the doors closed on his arm and to get out he had to get off the train. Then the train started going. Luckily we were prepared and knew what to do so we were able to get everything figured out in about 25 min and still make it back to visit a less active that is going through a really hard time.I just took the train ride home alone and was able to talk to a lady about the gospel. My comp stayed at the station waiting for our branch president to pick him up and take him to where my train ended and he was able to talk to someone about the church as well. It turned out being okay but it did give us a little scare.
Overall we are doing good. We have been wasting a lot of time waiting for trains and transportation in general over these past few weeks and months since I have been here and so we are trying to figure out how we can figure that out and still work to the best of our ability. This past week we spent 11 hours waiting for or being on transportation. We don't have any choice though because we live in a town of like 100 people that all know the missionaries. In fact every time we walk past we have this one guys that stands up from his bench that he is always sits on and yells AMERICA!! Plus it would take about 3 hours up a mountain to get to where we find people and have lessons with them by walking haha
Well I hope you guys have a good week. Sounds like the family Reunion went well and that everyone is still doing good. Thanks for everything!!!We do still have that English Teacher named M*****.
