Tuesday-Wednesday
We taught this man named Oscar who is super funny! My comp wasn’t saying anything so I literally talked the whole time! When we were about to leave, I had a strong feeling to just invite him to be baptized and he said yes! Hopefully it will happen. The spirit was super strong in the lesson. Then we went to the church to wait for our Bishop to arrive and passed out on the dirty floor lol, we were so tired! We then had a lesson with the daughter of familia Bouti. It was the best lesson! I talked and testified a lot about the Book of Mormon and families. I also felt prompted to say the first vision. The spirit was so strong, it was incredible. On the way home, I had some choice words thrown my way by people on the street. Some people can be so nice lol. Best thing to do is to keep moving forward! Don’t dwell on the bad only the good.
Wednesday we had zone conference. It was about faith and miracles. It was kind of a coincidence because that’s all I have been studying. It was super good! It was all about doing our part and writing down the miracles in each day because when we remember we are putting ourselves in a position to receive more. After the conference, we took pictures and talked with all the missionaries. One of the missionaries said he is excited to go home so he can tell his family when they are watching BYU play that he served with me. It was pretty cool. After, we waited forever for the bus to pick us up from the zone conference. I pulled out a letter my lovely mother sent me. It was the newspaper of the BYU/ UTAH basketball game. I have never been so excited to read the newspaper before! I bet it was awesome!

Thursday-Friday
Thursday was the best day of the week! We had lunch with this family and they love BYU lol. It was so fun to talk with them. They said they are excited to watch me play and they love having us because we have a piece of heaven with us. After, on our way home, I clocked my head on a stupid pole. It hurt so bad and it was bleeding all day. Everything is so short here not for tall guys haha. We had a lesson with this lady named Andrea. She was awesome! I have never testified so much! The spirit was so strong! I teared up talking about Jose Smith. He died so we could have this gospel. I asked her to be baptized and she said YES!!! Albero, our other investigator is a different story. He wants to receive an answer. Please pray for him, he needs all our help.
On Friday, we had our family night activity that Elder Maza and I started. I came up with all the games from my last area but it was so fun! Man, I miss being a kid again. It was funny when we got all set up, we only had 3 people but we ended up having 10 people that showed up. At the end of the activity, we had everyone sing “ I am a Child of God”. The spirit was so strong, it was amazing!

Saturday- Sunday
We helped the guy that is building the house again. We almost finished the house and helped with the walls. It is looking really good! The guy is hilarious. We then planned an activity to play soccer. No one showed! On the way home, I was dribbling the ball and a car mounted the curb to hit me. It was inches away from hitting me. Miracle! Then we taught Albero again and on the way back a guy who was drunk swerved to hit us. I don’t care what anyone says, angels are real! I know they were protecting us both times.
Sunday was a funny day. We taught this member that is inactive. She said the church isn’t true because people didn’t say hi to her at church. Oh boy! It was a long lesson with her. After, we taught an investigator’s son. He tried to trick us into drinking wine saying it was fruit juice. It was so close! After that we taught Andrea the Word of Wisdom and gave a blessing of health to a man. The spirit was super strong. The hermana said the power of the Priesthood is amazing! The man was so happy afterwards, it was really cool.
Well, that wraps up the week. Always remember the little things and live diligently to be happy!
