Good Week! February 1, 2016

Hello my peoples! SO we got ourselves the transfers. I am staying here and another GRINGO is coming! Loco huh? It will be my second gringo companion! I am happy because I heard he is a good hard worker. Lets just pray huh? So I have many expectations for these changes coming up. :) Woot Woot! SOOO let me see. That is the big news. This week was super interesting. We had some AWESOME lessons with this new family. And they understood EVERYTHING!!! They read the Book of Mormon together and all prayed and got an answer! They were all super excited and us too! And then we challenged them baptism... And they got serious, and the father said, it is just that I have a lot of faith in San Judas... It is one of the many saints for the catholics. Basically we talked to him a little bit. And well he is going to pray about it. But I just couldn`t believe it. He says HE KNOWS that it is all true, but doesn`t understand that this saint doesn`t really do anything or exist... Haha Man sometimes I love the mission. :) But we are going to keep going with them a little because they are awesome! :) We have another awesome family. But they haven`t been able to go to church because they just had a baby, and she is a little sick. But it is very interesting how they transport there baby in a backpack and their other daughter in between the two on a motorcycle. :) But they are doing very well. And their testimonies are growing and that is what matters. But something funny happened this week. I knocked on their door. And they have a dog that is normally really calm. But this day he hadn`t eaten and so he didn`t want us to come and delay his food or something like that. The point is he attacked me! :) And for the first time in my mission I kicked a dog right in the face. :) I didn`t really mean to, it was just a human reflex because the dog was biting me! And I made the dog do like a double backflip in the air. Ya it was like a full swing kick :) And then our investigator came out and grabbed the dog. And I thought that he was going to be mad that I kicked it in the face, but he congradulated me on my reflexes. And said I hope he learned a lesson. Woof what luck! That is a true sign of Golden Investigadors. :) But ya! And in the same day another dog attacked me, but it was like the size of a hamster so I wasn`t as worried you know. But it was a good day! :) So that is the great story of the week. :) So this week I was meditating a great deal about our blessing of having the Book of Mormon. It is really a cornerstone of the church and the cornerstone of my testimony. There have been times in the mission when people have said things to me that really made sense! That might have brought questions to me. But then I can just remember. I KNOW THE BOOK OF MORMON IS TRUE, And right there ends the doubt. It really is a blessing to have it. I know that if we follow it`s teachings, we will grow closer to God, and strengthen our relationship with him. I testify that if we can all make time everyday to study it, we will note the difference. Even if you are focused on another book of scriputure. Make time or listen to the Book of Mormon on your phones. :) And I promise that you will note the difference. I love you all and have a great week!
