Week 50: Endure to the End

To be honest it is kind of crazy how fast the weeks go by! It doesn´t seem real! Well just to start I want to say that the mission is so much fun! This week wasn´t the best in finding new people but when things are tough that is also when you need to learn from them. We had some very good appointments this week and many with good spiritual experiences. The way we are trying to find right now is a little more effective because we are visiting all of the members and asking for them to start thinking of friends and invite them to the activities we put on like movie night, English class, and another fun activity that is for young single adults. This week we had a really good turn out for the movie night. We watched the new Beauty and the Beast. We had about 40 people there! Of those 40 we had about 8 investigators and it helps them have a better relationship with members. 

Some of the best lessons we had this week were probably with less actives. Two of the less actives are recent converts but we have them a very well planned lesson on enduring to the end and what happens if we don´t. Lets just say they went to the activities and church this week for the first time over 4 weeks. The better one though wan´t even to planned. We passed by and we taught him mainly about the Plan of Salvation because his dad died and he is now doing bad things. We talked with him about how he can see his dad again but has to make good choices and the Spirit was super strong and he cried and I almost cried too. 

It was a pretty fun week too because we had a member leave with us from the young men. We had good appointments with him and we even found a lady we have been teaching for a while but then she left out of town for a while but is now back. The English class went well too and I got to talk with Elder Buhler who is one of the senior couples in the mission and a less active who knows English.

Well this week was great and fun but I hope you all have another great summer week! Oh FYI, I will be home in exactly a year from now.

Love ya!
