| Saying goodbye to the familia Garcia |
This week we have been having some good times and working
hard!!! We have been focusing on some of the investigadores that we have and
preparing them for baptism. We have also been working a lot with less active
members and helping them, which really paid off because quite a few of them
went to church with us this week!! I am really going to miss this area and all
the people in it! I love all of them and they have all been so kind to
me. Andalucia really has felt like home these past 6 months!
Ok so something really cool that happened this week that
shows that the Lord is always helping us and there are no coincidences. We
were walking to comida last week and we got half way there and we were like
"yo did we lock the door??" and we couldn't remember so we went back
and on our way back we ran into this dude named Alberto. We started talking to
him and you could tell that he was pretty drunk. We talked with him and walked
him home and taught a little bit and he told us he really wants to change. He doesn't
live in our area but we told the other missionaries and then invited him to
church. The other missionaries started teaching him and he actually came to
church!! It was so cool and he actually speaks some english. It was a cool
experience that an impression to go back led to us finding someone! Oh and btw
our house was locked lol.
I have been studying the New Testament a lot and one of my
favorite verses that I have read this week is Juan 17:3 "Y esta es la vida
eterna: que te conozcan a ti, el único Dios verdadero, y a Jesucristo, a quien
has enviado." It says that this is eternal life, to know God and
Jesucristo. We should always continue learning about our Padre Celestial and
Jesucristo because that is how we come to know them. I love it in Spanish
because there are two ways to say "to know": saber and conocer. Saber
just means to know about them but conocer means to actually know, to be
familiar with them!
Well, I got to go but hope all is well!!
les extraño y les amo!!
con amor
