We went to go and teach our investigators (which came to church again!!!!!). and we taught about testimonies (its not something that they tell us to teach at the beginning but i have found out that if the investigators know that if they want to know if the church is true or not and if they should get baptized or not that they need to know how to grow a testimony and how that will help them so that they know the answer when they receive it. (because many times we always try to have them find the answer and we explain testimony to late for it to work in time for the baptismal date) and then we explained about the plan of salvation and the word of wisdom. and at the end the dad spoke up and said... well.. personally, I really enjoy what you guys are teaching and i want to keep going to church because i feel something different when i am there and when you guys are teaching I feel something i havent felt in my whole life.) and then we ended with prayer and asked them to keep reading the book of mormon so that they can continue growing their testimony and preparing themselves so that they can know if the church is true and if they should be baptized or no.
and there is always something interesting here in mexico. because we always contact people in the street and like always no one wants us. but there are alway different groups of kids in the street playing futbol. and we have become friends with many of the kids that play in the street and we alway saque appointments with them so we can play them in a game or two. but one time we didn't show up because we had a meeting with the president. and now every time that we walk past the street 8 kids will just run to the windows and scream at us that we didn't show up and how they were totally going to kick our buts and all that jazz. and finally after like two whole days like that ( yeah i know i don't have much patience) i went up to the group of them after they had yelled at us about how we were wimps for not showing up. I told them that we didn't show up because we didn't want to make them feel bad with our awesome soccer skills cuz they wouldn't stand a chance against us (speaking total crap, they are way better than us). That if they want to we can have a tournament this wednesday if they are up to it. haha and that is when a kid said that it should be another day because he has school at that time on wednesday, but the rest of the kids said it was ok so we told them that we were going to be there ready to play. (and i think that kid is going to be ´´sick´´ on wednesday hahaha)
but that was our week. nothin crazy.
