Here we go, another week of missionary work. I love being
here. I have never had to work so hard for seeing such little results. But I
know I am doing what the Lord needs me to de here.
This week I was inspired by the story of
Joseph who was sold into Egypt. It is truly an amazing story. He is a faithful
servant of God who is put through a lot of trials. He probably didn't know
exactly why the Lord had put him in those situations, but he always stayed true
to God. Because of his faith, patience, and endurance in his trials, he not
only received individual blessings, but his entire family, and all of the house of
Israel were saved from the famine. That is super powerful to me. I hope to be as
faithful as him when faced with so many trials.
This week, we found a couple of news: Claudio, his father died about a month ago and he lives with his mom. We also found Mauricio, who lives with his wife. He is a bit of a drinker, but we will help
him with that.
I'm still with my same companion and he is doing well. His spanish still not quite there, but the people can understand what he says. The biggest trial is getting him to speak. He almost never speaks in lessons. I literally have to hit his knee or kick his foot or something haha. But it's OK, we are working on it.
I can't express how much I love it here, and how
much I love the mission. I can feel the blessings of the Lord and I am so
grateful for all of your prayers. They make a big difference in my life down
here. I love you all.

P.S. I'll try to bring my camera next week to send some pictures. Time is
flying by so fast.
I'm glad Renee and Joe are enjoying their new callings.
