how are you doing?
I just sent you a few pix from the Spanish missionary activity that we had this weekend. on Thursday night we drove with the zone leaders to the mission home in Raleigh and stayed the night there. Sis. Cotterral had cooked some soup for us, so we ate that (our second dinner that night), and then we went to bed. The next morning we got up and went to the temple in apex. We did a session in the temple, and we did it in Spanish. I was surprised at how easy it was to understand. It is really basic and simple Spanish. Then we ate lunch had some training/discussion/testimony meeting and then headed back to our areas. However with traffic, by the time we got back to our area, it was already 7 o clock and just had enough time to go to a dinner appointment.
We had a pretty good week this past week. I really enjoyed the Spanish activity, but it did take away a lot of proselyting time, but that's alright. I learned a lot of things that should help us out.
Tuesday was pretty crazy this week. Tuesdays are usually days that you spend tracting for hours on end, because everybody's at work. But we were really busy, we taught four really good lessons, between traveling and teaching the lessons, that's all we did that day. We found this guy a while back, and in the contact with him, we invited him to read the book of Mormon, to pray about it and then to be baptized if he came to know that it's true. When we taught him, he told us of an amazing story of this dream that he had telling him that it is true. We set a baptismal date with him for the 13 of august. But now were not to sure, because we talked to a few members that know him and we're not sure if he is quite capable of making the decision to be baptized. But we'll see how it goes.
There was a family that we were teaching. I think I told you about them, but we decided to drop them. They weren't will to give up the church that they are at right now. they told us that they had made a promise that they wouldn't leave the church that they are at right now. and their son plays the guitar in the church band (I've always thought that the church bands are kind of interesting, because they are breaking the sabbath day at church by listening to rock music in the church!)
Tonight we have an exiting night planned. Two of the families in the branch are going to have a family home evening, and invite a few of our investigators. So we're going to eat dinner, have a lesson, and let the investigators get to know a few members.
