Wow, this week was a little different but in a good
way. We finally found some people to teach and had a little bit more
success in this area. I don't know, things finally just started to click,
but really I only want to share about one of our investigators right now
named Yvonne. Haha yeah when we received the reference for her I really
didn't know how to act cause thats definitley not a Spanish name. But
anyway, a member called us Friday night saying that she met this German
lady that really doesn't speak Spanish all that well (so I have no idea
how they met cause this hermana only speaks spanish??) but Yvonne can
speak english alright. And that she has been going through some really
hard times with a divorce here and got kicked out of her husbands house, doesn't really have a job and she is basically out on her own in a
country where she doesnt speak the language. So, we were pretty hyped to
teach this lady and we set an appoitment for the next day. And really I
realized how much spanish has been drilled into my head more than
anything. As she wanted me to say the first prayer in english I was like
okay, I haven't done this in the last 5 months but cool, and yeah it kinda
came out in a weird spanglish. After, we taught the first lesson of the
Restoration and obviously she felt something because she agreed to come
to church the next day and we translated more for her there. And we are
going to continue teaching her this week. I don't really know where I'm
going with this story but I thought it was pretty kool that I was
teaching a german lady in english in Argentina. I never would have seen
that coming, but more than anything with this experience and a few more
this last week I have realized that this gospel really is for everyone.
It's someting that I testify of everyday that really the information and
testimonies that we have can change lives, and all we have to do is
share it.
Well anyway, next week I'm going to be writing on
Tuesday because transfers are already here again and I'm 90% sure that I
am leaving to a different area which is going to be so weird cause this
is still the only area that I know and I have made some really good
friends here. But never the less, I am excited to be able to know other
parts down here in Buenos Aires.
Love all ya'll.
