Roadblocks and bumps. :)

It has been quite the week. Conference was incredible, and it helps so much for our investigators to see the prophets and apostle and feel that power. We have hit a few roadblocks with some of our investigators but we are going to work harder than Satan is so that we can help them. It has been kind of a rough week, but I have been able to learn a lot, and the opportunity to be involved in such a good work is always amazing!

Agustin is doing well. He has some bumps along the road, like we would expect anyone to have, but he is learning and doing well. After we were done talking to him outside the taqueria the other day, some lady sitting there stood up and asked if we were Jehovah's Witnesses. We said no and explained who we were, and she proceeded to bash all three of us. She was trying to convince him not to listen to us, and we told her he was a member. She told him that she was sorry for him, and that we don't have to earn our way to heaven, Jesus paid for it. It made me sad to see someone being very ignorant of what we actually believe, and then being so unkind to someone who is truly trying to follow Christ. This is a twisted world. Why can't we all just get along? :)

 

Maricela is an incredible investigator we are really pushing for. She is a single mom with two kids, and is so humble and willing to follow Christ. I hope we can help her to continue increasing her faith so she can be happy.

 

We are doing well here, it is flying by. It should be an interesting week with many more adventures! Thank you all for your love and support, and I am so glad things are going well there. I love you all and miss you all,
