a normal week in the mish...

Another very normal week here in the mish. It was a good one but it is still really frustrating because we are just not finding people who are willing to repent and be baptized. The influences of other churches and everything is incredible and makes things really difficult but its all good. So basically we have nothing except a bunch of less active families. There were a lot of them though that came to church yesterday which was really good to see.

Tuesday I had mini cambio (I dont know what that is called in English) with an Elder Nef which was really good. We taught some pretty good lessons to people and had a good time. Thats really the only thing exciting that happened though this week.

But this week we did have interviews with our President and it will be the last time I think before he leaves. He helped me to see through his testimony that our goal as missionaries is to allow people to have the spirit with them always in this life and in the life to come. It is as simple as that. Whatever trial or challenge in our life, can be helped or fixed through the help of the spirit and of God. It was a great interview and gave me a new way to look at missionary work. But hope that you all have a good week!
