My week was pretty great as Elder Brewer and I are really
getting along and learning from each other. I love having a newer comp
because he helps me remember the fundamentals which are really the most
important. It's hard just speaking in Spanish with him but we are working
on it. It's also hard to get him in on the lessons because he doesn't
talk much. He's trying though and I try to give him a window, but it
usually results in a silence ha.
We are trying to talk with more people on the street too and we
have the goal to talk to 35 a week when we should be doing 70 for our
mission goal. It's hard because we are always busy, but we are improving
and we found an awesome family from talking to a mom who was going to pick up
her kids from school. It was a miracle to find her house too because she
gave us what is commonly called a "Yucateco address" which is when they
tell you where they live saying that you have to turn a million times
looking for a certain coconut tree. Ha we found it in the night though
so I was pretty happy.
This week I really enjoyed seeing Fernanda really progress. We have
taught her for a while and in a week she has completely stopped smoking.
I couldn't believe how good she is doing reading and everything. She
going to be baptized on Tuesday!
SHOUT OUTS for everyone! Thank you so much for reading my blog!
I have loved sharing the Sacramental prayers this week Moroni 4 and 5.
FUN
FACT: The milk here comes in a milk carton like the little personal
ones we have in the U.S. and you can keep it out of the fridge for months. Its also
only 50 percent real milk ha. YUM! It took me a while to get used to it.
Have a good week! THE CHURCH IS TRUE.
Love,
Elder Shurtliff
