¡Eja! Muy pronto nos veremos... por la última vez. El tiempo ha pasado demasiado rápido.
What a crazy week full of learning experiences. That's every week here. And I love to learn.
Well
the first experience I had was when I went on divisions with an Elder
that barely has 5 months here in the mission and he is struggling bad.
He is American from Arizona. We went on divisions and I took him back to
my area to work. He told me about the problems he was having. A lot of
health problems. He had a doctors appointment that day because he was
having pains in his collar bone because he broke it a couple years back
and he thinks it didn't heal very good and it had been giving him
problems. So we went and the doctor told him that there was nothing
wrong. That it was completely healthy and that he was having pains
because of growth. So that was good news. But I think he is just trying
to find an excuse to go home. I tried that whole day to find a way to
help him and to make him feel better and make him want to stay and to
complete this calling with me that the Lord had given us. I felt like I was
able to accomplish a lot in one day because the next morning, he left
happy and motivated. And this week, they baptized a family of three.
That should get him motivated.
Also, on
Saturday, we had a pretty interesting lesson. We went to the house of a
investigator that we have but she wasn't there but we found her mother.
She accepted our invitation to listen to a short message. After talking to her for a
couple minutes, we decided to teach her the Plan of Salvation. We taught
her outside her house because inside it was an oven. It wasn't much
better outside but we did it outside. The lesson was going super great
though. We taught her where she came from before she was born and she
was amazed. Then we got to the creation and I started speak and just as I
started, I felt something fall on me, like it had started raining but
the rain was really hot. Then I look up to see a pigeon on a power line
that had just released its bowels all over me. It was all over my shirt
and pants and in my hair. Two seconds later, while me and the lady I was
teaching were still in shock, my companion busts out "and that is one
of God's many beautiful creations" and then we all just started laughing. It was a great moment. Then we made an appointment to come
back to her house and left to clean myself up.
Today
it got up to 105. It has gotten up to or over a hundred almost every
day this week. But here we are still working hard. This next week we are
supposed to get a thunder storm. I hope. That would be a nice break.
Well that was my crazy week. I love you all and hope you all are doing great!
Elder George
