I can't believe it has already been a transfer. Almost 3 months. wow.
This week was a very good one! We really saw the Lord's hand in His work.
Sometimes when you thing something goes wrong, it is really a blessing.
We went on exchanges with the zone leaders and we were going to go visit an old investigator that had been dropped. I ended up getting the address wrong and the lady was totally white, uninterested, and had no idea who the people were that we were looking for. Oops! But as we were walking back to the car a spanish family pulled up. We talked to them, left them a card, and set up a return appointment! We went to the appointment and they weren't home, which isn't uncommon, because love them to death, but Spanish just never remember. So we were a little frustrated but as we were leaving we saw the sister missionaries helping someone move some stuff. We went and helped them and they said they had jsut tracted into a spanish family nearby! We went to see them and they are amazing. We ended up seeing the family we were trying to see later anyways, and had a great lesson with them. They should be coming to church this sunday and they are incredible. Even when things fall through, I know the Lord will provide. He put you in that spot for a reason.
We got rain a couple days ago all day! It was freezing and I definitely need a jacket. Bleck.
I will probably have to write more later and send pictures!
We have been finding all kinds of critters up here. There are spiders everywhere, so no surprise there, but there was a scorpion in my bathroom and we found a lizard in the house last night. Fun times!
I love you all. Thank yo uso much for the packages and letters and all. As of right now I don't need anymore snacks :P We have a ton, and I love them :) But probably not much more for a little while....!
I really appreciate it though. Thank you for the music Grandma and the games! And thank you all just for your love and support. I miss you all, and I love you so much.
We ran into a guy this week who told us that he had an addiction to gambling and it destroyed his life. We told him about the plan of salvation and he just said he didn't really care about that because he doesn't love his wife and he is only there so the kids can have money to live. He has basically given up on life and doesn't care, and it all started from that gambling addiction. It is so interesting to meet so many people and learn so much, and sometimes very sad. But I am trying to take advantage of being able to meet so many people! It is an incredible opportunity.
I love you all. Thank you for everything. Keep telling me how you all are, I love hearing about all of it.
Love,
Elder Stone
