Okay, so something to share from this week is a journal entry I wrote. So, yesterday was basically a bum day all day. We walked around the whole entire day, found no one, entered 0 houses. Then, at the end, we had a family home evening with the Reque family. The wife and the husband have been having a bunch of marital problems. I haven't been sure if they're going to end up making it as a couple. But yesterday, they exchanging glances like I have never seen before. And right at the end, they comitted to continue fighting for their family. Yay!! But THEN, after dinner, the son of my pensionista (the sister who cooks for us) makes like he wants to chat. So, we're like, "Okay, we dig it." And he confesses that he's been wanting to go on a mission! And he says that he's thinking about going in January!!! WHAAT?! I'm McLovin' it because I was there when he first started getting that testimony back. When I first met him, he said, "Yeah, I WAS Mormon, but I haven't been in a looong time. I'm super, super inactive." And now look at him! And today, we went to see Nayelli. Maria, her grandmother, is not our biggest fan. And since Nayelli says that she does literally nothing without her grandmother, her progression's been pretty rough. But I love Hermana Escobedo because se just goes in there and attacks at full speed, no fear. And Maria starts to LISTEN to her! She looks at her like she's this supreme being who's been called to translate for te American. At the end, she's like, "Yeah. The Bible and the Book of Mormon are one in the same, just like God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit are three different people but one in purpose." Pow! Blew my mind.

My favorite part of this week was definitely the tour of the capilla that we did for an investigator this past Saturday. He's having a hard time progressing because he's afraid he's going to get super deep into the church only to find out one day that he was equivocado. So, him actually coming to the church was a big step. The Spirit was super strong. It was awesome. :) Lourvin' being a missionary. ...even though I'm realizing more and more that everything is more intense during this time. I think Satan works a whole lot of overtime on the missionaries. And I know that it's because of the work we do. While, it is super rough sometimes and I'd prefer that it wasn't the case, at the same time, it's somehow gratifying to know that it's that important. I'm just going to keep taking baby steps at a time. I'm lejos de perfect, but I just keep thinking that if I can just make a good decision this once today, maybe tomorrow I'll be able to make another one. So, that's the lesson learned this week. Also! We found out that Russel M. Nelson is going to be coming to our mission soon. Oh check yes!

Here is a really picture of Kuelap! (I think she is translating from Spanish to English, what do you think?)
