Hello familia!
Well I am still a happy missionary in Merida! Time is flying.
This week was good, next week we have lots of goals. We found a couple investigators who are super prepared! Both of them are 17 years old! One girl, and one boy, I can totally see them going on missions! One focus we have right now in the mission is teaching lessons to future missionaries and also future elders( melquesidek preisthood) forgive the spelling. We are doing pretty good! 2 of the recent converts in our ward are going to get the melquisedek preisthood this week at stake conference!
BTS, fried banana ( there are lots of different types of bananas here) |
A common problem here is that people just blast music SUPER loud from their house. So sometimes we are teaching a awesome lesson and the spirit is there, but then Bruno Mars interrupts it from next door and we have to talk super loud and it kind of goes downhill.
Last saturday we had interviews with our Mission president. We went and waited in the mission office but there were a ton a missionaries before us and we had to wait a long time and then it was super late and there wasnt time for everyone so he took us all home in his minivan haha. And then the next day he came to our church and gave us an interview in his car. It was super funny. Presidente Garcia is really awesome! He has a lot of love, a lot of light, and a lot of spirit.
the young men came to clean up our backyard! Cut lots of branches off our tree and pulled a bunch of weeds. No one uses clippers here, everyone uses machetes. |
They also check our houses once in a while to see if they are clean, our house was suuuper clean! Hermana Garcia came in and was so happy and said great job sisters!!!! I was so happy all day that we could present a neat and clean house, without having to be ashamed of anything in there. It made me think, how wonderful would it be to arrive to Heavenly Fathers presence, and be 100% clean, knowing that we did well on earth, and not having anything to hide. How wonderful will we feel to be worthy to stand in His presence?
Sometimes it feels unreachable, we all make mistakes, we always fall, but through Jesus Christ, we can get back up! We can be clean of everything. His Atonement is real, His love is great, His plan is perfect.
I love you all so much!
Have a wonderful week and I will see you on Sunday!!! 4:00 pm! be there or be square!!!!!
