This week has been very eventful but very slow in the
work.
Tuesday we started off kind of exciting. So we started contacting our street
references and we found a new family!
They invited us in and are really great!
But when we started talking, they told us of how scary things have been
happening in their house and how for the past 3 years, the 17 year old daughter
has had a dark figure come and bother her in the night. So we offered her a blessing and they
accepted. When we finished, she got all
weak, cold and sick so we were worried and offered to come back in the night
time with the other missionaries to bless her again. So we came back in the night time to bless
her again and since then she is sleeping normal and feels calmer! Rad!
Matthew 10:1
(He gave a lot more details about the blessing they gave but I thought it best to leave some of it out.)
Wednesday we fasted for that family just to be sure
everything would be okay, and the family joined us. It was a rough fast all day
in the sun but it was worth it because the family is happy and grateful.
Mark 9:29
Thursday was slow because it was NEW YEARS! Cool because 2016 and stuff but bummer
because everyone was drunk or out of town.
I ate 3 dinners though which was AGONY!
Friday was worse because everyone was hungover or asleep
haha so we had a zone meeting and did practices. but it was pretty important to help the
missionaries. That night while we were walking we saw a big glowing plume of
smoke so we walked to where it was and the sugar cane field was in flames next
to the houses! They were huge flames,
like 20 to 30ft high. Luckily it burnt
itself out and didnt hit the houses because the firemen came super late. But it was cool to watch! im guessing it was
a firework related accident.
Saturday was pretty normal.
The 20 year old son of the Arias family is getting super interested in
the church, but he's super smart and studies hard! he had all sorts of
questions but he came to church for the 2nd time! Cool!
Sunday we had normal 5 investigators attending church but we
are all bummed because we confirmed with like 15 and most blew us off. But its chill.
Today we hiked to the top of a mountain which was fun. I am BEAT though haha. But it was sure nice to get out and
hike. Anywho yeah. It was an alright
week! Casting out devils, new years,
fires, hikes, but nah im sick of the holidays.
I just wanna work hard again! But
its alright because this week is our chance!
I love you all!
