This week I am so grateful to have had. Elder Bentley and I went hard this week and now in the mission we started counting how many people we have contacted in the week. This week Elder Bentley and I contacted 120 people and we only found 2 news. There was definitely frustration but Elder Bentley and I kept our heads up and kept working hard. I remember last night as a cita fell with a family that we were so looking forward to and Elder Bentley kind of just looked at each other and we said to a prayer asking the Lord to know what we should do because we felt that we had done all that we could and weren´t sure what more to do. I remember when this cita fell that I had the words come to my head "Go Home." Elder Bentley and I knew that it was only 8 and we had another hour left to work so we kept contacting. We ended up not finding any like cool investigadores and last night when we got to the house I was just pondering on what had happened in the week and what we could do better. I was reading in Doctrinas y Convenios en la seccion 58 and the verse 3 and 4 stuck out to me. Dice:
3 Ye cannot behold with your n
4 For after much tribulation
I know that these scriptures were an answer to my prayers. I know that what we are seeing in our work right now is not what the Lord has in store for us. I have so much confianza en el Señor and know that this week there will be someone prepared for us to teach them and they will need the felicidad that this Gospel brings. Put your trust in the Lord and everything will be alright, the Lord loves each and everyone one of us and everything will be alright.
This week Elder Bentley and I celebrated some Dia de Muertos with some Pan de Muerto. It is so good, I am going to miss the food so much here when I leave. Oh ya I also beat my comp in Bean Boozled this week. We had a very compettive game but he couldn´t handle the dead fish and ended up throwing up jajajjajajajajjajaja. This week we got super wet as well and just doing the work. I love it so much and everyday there is no greater feeling than a hard day of work!
This week we had a cool experience with one of our investigadores se llama Martin that we found in bad shape when we first found him. He had drinking problems but he already stopped drinking and echando un buen de ganas. He has a fecha for the 24th of Noviembre and he is so awesome. He recieved his answer that this is the true church just from teaching the Palabra de Sabiduria. I know that the Lord is working with us here and it was so awesome to hear Martin accept the fecha the 24 for el bautismo with so much animo. I hope all have a good week.
