As far as investigators go, we got Carlos a Book of Mormon in english so he can read better. That was his excuse for not reading it so hopefully that helps. He´s doing good. The Flia Vega continues to be clutch, they couldn´t come to church for family reasons, but this week is going to be good for them.
Another investigator, Gonzalo (the soccer player), we found out he actually plays in the professional league in Mendoza. So wanted to go to the game today, but we asked the Zone Leaders and they gave us a huge no. Dangit.
It´s actually been pretty rainy this week, sadly. This week was also Semana Santa for Easter and stuff, so it´s supposedly hard to work, but we managed to teach a bunch of lessons, it´s really all about attitude. We taught this guy named Fernando yesterday the restoration and then he gave us some way expensive chocolate bars. It was great.
The mission is making a huge effort to talk with everyone, cause God has put them in our path for a reason. Elder Banks and I made the effort to talk to everyone. We got to the point that when people pass us and we don´t talk to them we feel bad. Haha.
I was studying a lot this week about the pride cycle in the Old Testament, the whole Prosper Pride Wickedness and Destruction. I was just thinking about how we must remain humble even if we are prospering. If things are all going well there is a better chance they will stay well if we thank God for it, instead of thinking that it came from ourselves. Without God we are nothing.
On Friday it was Elder Banks´s birthday, turned 19!!! I told the members we were eating lunch with and they gave him some super awesome dulce spread. That was fun.
Well that, my friends, will do it for this week. Have a good one.
love,
Elder Anderson
