September is already here! That sure went by fast. I absolutely LOVE this season! College Football is among us. Well I guess its just among you guys but I still love hearing about it and seeing pics haha. Fall here in mexico is also super fun! Im gonna start hearing more mariachi, eating more posole which is super good, we have the 15th of september celebration coming up, etc! What a fun time to be in the mission.
This week was pretty good; we found some pretty good new investigators! One of my favortie parts of the week was when we were calling all of the old investigators in the phone. Of course most of them didnt answer, we don't even know who these people are but we needed to clear up space on the phone and before deleting the contacts, we wanted to give these people one last shot! So long story short, I got a hold of a lady named Luz Maria who answered the phone and said "I just finished the book of mormon and I would love for you guys to visit me"!! Of course we were super stoked about it! That same day, we went to go visit her and I think shes gonna start progressing well! She even went to church with us on sunday.
The rest of the week was pretty normal, I had exchanges with a brazilian elder which was super fun! Portuguese is honestly so similar to spanish, it was fun to try and understand him speaking!
I just barely finished reading the book of Job. He is one of the most popular figures in the Old Testament because of his faithfulness! I love one part where he says, paraphrasing, "If we receive blessings from God, shouldnt we also receive the trials he gives us?" we should be grateful for everything that happens in life. Most of the time, the hardest times are the times we learn the most from!
Les amo un buen!!
