Our news...what's yours

HEY FAM!!!!!
 
oh such a good week here. as always haha. well it was an ok week, alot of people let us down on appointments which is pretty usual. But we just keep truckin along and keep working. nothing big thats a big story writter happened this week. No I have not gotten your package. Yes i did get dads letter. He like knows my area better than I do. So yes um mom we are comming up on christmas and yes i do get to skype home. Yes that means internet video of me. WE GET TO SEE EACH OTHER!!!!! i am going to set up a skype account today and next week i am going to send you the information. I need your guys information to talk to you. I dont know the exacts of what time and all that but i will talk with my companion about it and tell you next week.
Yes it is smokin hot here. Its usually in the low 90's. nothing too big. but super hot. i have sweat stains on my shirts from where my backpack rests on my shoulders and back. its pretty gnarly. and yes my feet stink a fool. oh goodness. but thats the mission. you just get mission feet. and we are getting eaten alive by mosquitos. just a big ol jumbled mess of happiness is what it is. haha :)
 
Our investigators are mas o menos right now. They dont have a fire desire to be baptised or know things about the church. but we are hoping to change that. we have a cita(appointment) tonight with a guy that stopped us on the street saying he has been waiting for us to come buy so we will see how that goes. A member gave me some Jordans (michael jordan shoes) for free. they said they dont fit him, they dont fit me either so i am going to give them to Elder Brown one of the other elders in our zone.  yes.
 
I had a cool experience this week teaching a menos activo why i am on my mission. I just bore testimony to her that I am here to save souls who are lost and dont know about the truth. I am here to bring their family who had been away from the church for a long time back to church. Thats why we are here as missionaries, cause God provided a way we could learn about the truth to live back with God again after this life. God provided a way to be clean from our sins by being baptised, partaking of the Atonement, taking the sacrament every week. God provided every way to be back with him, we just have to find that way and do everything it takes. The big thing that always runs through my head is this question "If Jesus came this moment, would I be able to say "Yes lord, I am cleanof my sins"." I hope and have no doubt that each of you are living a worthy life but we need to make sure we are always doing good things so we are clean in the last day. I love you family, be safe and take care"
