Hey so not too much happened this week but I’ll try to break it down,
Last Monday
we went over to brother Steve’s house (the Philadelphia guy) and ate. He is
currently sending me play by play of the super bowl since the super bowl is
happening right now here. Then Tuesday we talked to all of these less-actives
who are part member families. Than Wednesday we had Zone interviews with President
Balledos-- which was good. After the zone interview, the Assistants choose one
companionship to work with as does president Balledos… so of course there's
like 14 or so companionships in the zone but
we were the chosen companionship to work with president. It was way awesome
though I learned a lot. But it was so stressful trying to teach with President
right there haha.. But ya so we worked with him. While we were with him we
taught Naty Esperone (who is an old lady) and we gave her a Book of Mormon
because she really wants to learn more. She said she can't read because her
eyes are bad, than presidents like, “oh I know a guy who makes eye glasses. I
will have him make you one, just send me the grade of your eyes.” So that was
cool. Then he wanted to see how we worked with members, so we walked into this
member’s house (sister Elizabeth) and were just talking than I’m just like.... “So
hey you want to work with us next week?” and she's like “yup sure.” So it's as
easy as that.
Then Thursday
we went to the Nicdao family and taught them. This is the 36 year old grandma
who's a less-active and sooooo nice and wants her son baptized... And she has
an 18 year old daughter that may or may not be pregnant we are too scared to
ask haha...
We went
back to Jessica’s mom--the one who said no to her being baptized-- and we took
a bolder approach with the 2nd councilor in the Bishopric....... But ya she
still hates our guts and doesn't want her daughter to be baptized... Jessica’s
grandmother (the member) bore a powerful testimony (it was in Ilocano so i
didn't really catch it) on how she wants Jessica to get baptized but the mom
is........ ya.
And that's
about it.... love ya all... been missing the fam lately
