Well, it has been yet another tough week for us, and our leaders are letting us have it for the unsuccess that we are having.
This week, we actually had a great change come around, we found some new people to teach and they look to be good investigators, but they all decided not to come to church on sunday. It was very discouraging that none of the people that we were teaching came to church on sunday, so that puts them back even farther on their progression. But the ward is chaning and they are working to bring things back to the way that they were. They are visiting people and giving us references to new people. We still have visited any of them, because they gave them all to us on sunday, but this week we shall see how are these references. I am just hoping that they arent like the last 10 that we have received from them, which were the following. He is a drunk, doesnt live much in the house, and he needs your help, oh ad he doesnt know that your coming. So much for a reference.
Elder Muñoz is doing alright, but he is having a peeing problem, and is always getting up in lessons and peeing, not to mention in bed sometimes. Its pretty gross, and our room smells of it too. He is still learning how to be a missionary, but its as if he doesnt listen to me and just doddles the whole day. I just feel like i am doing this whole thing by myself, and then when we dont have great success, our leaders love to rip me a new one. It is quite a pleasurable time out here right now, im just hopin and praying that it gets better some time soon.
I hope you get to move into the house soon, and get this whole thing done. Im sure that it will get done in the near future. One thing that my president told me was that when we dont have blessings here, the people at home are the ones receiving them. So ENJOY YOUR BLESSINGS haha.
I did read one thing this week that helped me out a lot. I was looking in the teachings of the prophets by joseph smith and found a great couple of pages. I read that no person in this world is worthy of the celestial kindgom without receiving great and demanding tasks. Also that the people that survive through the trials, and WITHOUT complaining are the ones to be crowned with glory by the Lord. It has given me a little more drive and personal reflection, and i have changed me prayers from take away these challenges to give me the strength to learn from them and make it through them.
I hope you all enjoy your weeks and all goes well in your life.
