So, this week has been so-so. We haven't had many lessons with anyone and it has been very difficult to find our investigatores in house. We have had to drop a few people because they are so impossible to find and haven't shown any desires to contact us in any way :( But! Todo esta bien! I love the ocean :)
We had a lesson with Pablo last Friday, which was a sweet lesson. We talked to him a lot about how he needs to be baptized because he knows everything is true. He understands the need to be baptized and he wants to do it, but his wife is so unsupportive of him that he is afraid that his joining the church would ruin his family. He has a little boy, 7, Richard, that he (pablo) doesn't want Richard to grow up with two different parents in two different chuches. So, we are going to continue passing by like once a week to teach him, and hope and pray that his wife softens her heart. He really wants to be baptized, but he has a fear that his wife will never support him and it will tear his family apart. So... Yeah. Pablo is cool though. :)
We had a lesson with la familia Berdeja, but they are still super floja. Oswald, the dad, actually came to church on Sunday, which was sweet. They have a little 2 year old kid, who is super travieso, and so Maria and Oswald take turns watching him every other week while the other goes to church. The mom works all the time, so she can't do it. But, everything is well with them.
We were so close to having a lesson with Arturo on Friday too! We were going to go to a member's house to teach him, and we were going to meet up somewhere so he could follow us to the house. I don't think he heard us well enough over the phone, because he arrived there without a car and just hopped in ours... And we have a rule that we can't do that, so we didn't teach him :( :( :( he is super cool though and wants to know more about where his son went after death. He will definitely be baptized next transfer, if we are able to meet with him.
We dropped Alejandro because we could never find him and he hasn't shown any effort to contact us :(
We were going to have dinner with China and Elenor (the crazy people) on Thursday, but she had a doctor appointment that she had forgotten about, so we rescheduled for Monday (yesterday). Elenor made some SUPER good spaghetti. But, China is insane. She's like a funny insane though. Last night, her dad told a joke and she went off like, "Dad, I would TOTALLY come and see your improve show, if you had one. I would even throw tomatoes at you! I would pay so much money to see you do improve Dad! You are so funny!"
She's crazy.
So, I don't think the library was closed on Friday, but school was definitely out... They had a four day weekend! Crazy! Friday was a super nice day. Like, 80. The ocean was pretty. I took a picture.
Sounds like you had a SWEET weekend in Vegas! I wish I could have been there! Maybe the next one :)
So, Elder Hansen had to go to the doctor today. In Lake Forest! My greenie area! Man, it was so weird going back. I missed it though. It was cool to go back. :)
Tell Shanny and the cousins thanks for the package! I just received it yesterday and it was sweet. I will be sending my package out to you today, so expect it in a few days :) There is some cool stuff!
Well, I believe that it is it for this week. I hope everything goes well this week and I can't wait to write again next week! This is the last week of the transfer, and the last weeks always have SWEET miracles. So, be prepared to see some miracles next week!
Love, Elder Hunt
