Honestly this week was a pretty hard one. The work kind of slowed down as we had a hard time getting with our progressing investigators. A lot of fallen through appointments, but also a lot of blessings!
One great thing that happened this week really shows how amazing these spanish people are. I like white people too, but they are incredible! ;)
We had an appointment one night and had about 15 minutes till. We decided to go see a dropped investigator and try to set an appointment with them and maybe share something, so on we went. When we knocked, they opened the door and had just finished getting dinner set up. Just right then, they set two more places, got us in, and had us eat dinner with them. Our appointment ended up cancelling on us not 5 minutes later. These people are so kind. But then after we were done eating, they bring out a cake, and it is their daughter's birthday! They sing, take pictures, all with us right there and in it. We had cake and talked, shared a message, and then left, feeling so loved and blessed. These people are amazing.
Church was hard, everyone who we thought was coming fell through. But we need to focus and work harder to get them there. That is where they can find the most happiness and they can see what we are all about. It is amazing to have them there, and we will try to harder to do that.
We met some very interesting people. Being up here in the hills, you see a lot of crazy ones. As we were leaving one appointment, we were about to turn on to the main road, but let a guy cross it first. He came over to my window without me noticing, which scared me real bad. But we rolled down the window, and he proceeded to give a very interestingly-worded, spirited, and hostile religious rant. The whole time I was very confused. I think he was commending us for what we were doing, trying to spread the word. But I am still confused. Haha it was hilarious. He talked to us through the window for about 15 minutes, as we just sat there with our blinker on. The poor guy should find help. But that is okay.
I am thankful for all your love and support, and I want to write as much as I can. Wish time was not so tight! I miss you all, stay strong and keep on pushing.
Love,
Elder Stone
