Week 28 Cuidad Delgado

Week #32
9/19/16
Hola Everyone! this week has been really good!
I have just been coming to love more and more this area! Its super cool, and i feel like we are doing really good here! Tuesday we spent a good part of the afternoon contacting and found a few people, not super positive but more people to teach is always good! We also found one of the ladies that the sister missionaries were teaching before and she accepted a baptismal date! We will see if she is willing to take the steps necessary to receive her answer from god! Most people dont fully understand their part in the conversion. Lots wait and dont work, but conversion is really hard, they dont always get that. Our part is the most important.. we need to search diligently and read and pray, go to church. but lots of people arent willing to go or act. Thats the hardest part of the mission, helping people understand that! but then in the night time we visited a few of our investigators, we really have tried to focus on the Sabbath day, and getting people to church! Wednesday we did basically the same! we have been working with member and youth preparing for their missions it has been a lot of fun haha! but we also put another baptismal day with a guy named Rodrigo. he is the son of a lady we found the past week! but they both fell this week because we called them Sunday in the morning ot see if they were going to go to church and she said that she would appreciate it if we never came back to her house because their having problems in the family because of our visits.. we only went twice but the husband doesn't like that we have gone there it was sad but in the future they will realize what they're missin! Thursday we had a lot of time to do nothing! it was the 15th which is independence day here.. all day there were parades and things, until like 2. We weren't aloud to do anything then when we left we tried to contact people! it was great, everyone was home with the whole family but NOBODY let us in to share a message with them hah so after like 3 hours of that we went to visit some members. but it was cool we live on the street where the parades were so we saw a little! pretty fun! Friday we only had to plan an hour of contacting! We can almost fill our schedule with people now haha! were gettin there! we taught a lot of the Restoration! Saturday we filled the schedule!! but some appointments feel and we ended up contacting a but but it was good! we ran around inviting everyone we know to church hah! we went home really tired! Sunday was hard.. we had lots of people ready and committed to church but only the two that normally go went.. we had hoped for about 8 investigators! but theres always next week!! :) Anyways this week has been lots of fun and im grateful for the experiences i have had good and bad! im really lazy and dont feel like bearing my testimony in Spanish.. sorry haha! oh yea last night we found the key to unlock a staircase in our house that goes to the roof and we got to enjoy the night outside! it was pretty cool, we brought our pillows and blankets and played with my laser pointer! Pretty relaxing! Then it rained on us haha! well until next week! thanks for reading!!
I found a place that had coconuts and i had to buy one! haha! they're way different here but it was good!(The picture didn't come through)
Love,
Elder Beck
