The Lord is Preparing his People

Hola

This week was such a good week. Elder Bentley and I are having such a great time. This week we have worked super hard with the people that we had found Elder Alamea and I and we looked for several more people. Elder Bentley and I set us the goal to talk to everyone and be known from all lados. We want to be known as the "Guerros Locos" but that are always willing to help and talk to everyone. This week everytime that we see someone that looks at us weird because we are two Gringos we contact them. It is so funny because they are amazed that we speak Spanish, it is funny because some kids after leaving school or just shocked. This week we had an experience that was so awesome. On Saturday we were headed towards a cita when some dude started looking at us super weird and we said Good Afternoon to him and he responded in English but in really good English. We started talking to him in the street and telling him what we do but the hardest part about it all is that we did it in English, I don`t know why but it was super hard jajajaj. I have never preached in English before. His name was George and as we started to talk to him I could feel the Spirit so strong because he began to ball and asked for our help. He was actually on his way to buy drugs and said that he wanted help to get out of the problem that he was in. He lived in the United States for a while but ever since he came back to Mexico he has fallen hard. We talked with him for a little while and we invited him to church the next day. Yesterday he went and he stayed for 3 hours!!! We were so excited because he has the desire to change. We have a cita with him this week and we are excited to see what the Lord has in store for us and we hope that the Lord can help him in his change. He is a testimony to me that anyone can change and it is never to late thanks to the expiacion de JesuCristo!! Our Savior paid for our sins and we always have the oportunidad to change but only if we are willing to do it and recongize that it is necessary!!

This week had gone so great with Elder Bentley. We are working hard and having such a good time while we do it. This week we had an experience that was so funny. I went and did a interview for a baptism en el area Lucero and when we head back to our area we were waiting for a combi to get on. We saw the combi but it was on the other side of the street and there was no way we were going to make it but out of nowhere Bentley goes watch this and walks out in the middle of traffic and puts his hand up to stop the combi. Well he did a goodjob but the only problem was that he stopped all of the traffic as well and there were so many buses and trucks that got so mad and started yelling at him and honking their horns. Well at the end of the story we didn`t end up getting on the combi because he tried to go on the other side and itjust kept going and he was so embarrased because they were all yelling at him. I was dying laughing as it all happened because I had no idea what he was doing and it just turned into a disastre jajajjaja. It was so funny but I am loving my time here and the Lord`s work is going great. 

Well this Saturday we are going to baptize 2 and I am super excited! I have been waitng for this say for a long time and I will have pics next week!!! I hope all is well and everyone is having a great week! Almost done with el Libro de Mormòn and I am loving it so much!!!
