So I accidentally lied last week. My companion is not from Tooele, he's from West Bountiful. Oops. :(
My companion and I had so much fun this week teaching our investigators and doing the like 100+ visits that we did. We were able to chat about the zone, the mission, funny memories, I hastle him, he hastles me. He is rather hilarious. He also is a wonderful example for me. He is so kind and loving to everyone he meets, something that I need to get better at doing. I'm not always nice to everyone, especially when they're rude or just plain stupid. But he is so charitable. I am adapting and becoming better at it.
My companion and I have so many great things that we would like to achieve as a companionship. We want to be better missionaries, we want to have real success and be united as a companionship. So we are studying more together, we talk all the time. Yeah. So this next change is looking great. :)
Elder Lundquist and I are determined to help him start some kind of easy-up business when he finishes his mission. We are working out the kinks right now, slowly but surely and we're gonna see what happens when he gets back.
So, this week, if you're feeling rather charitable, could you all pray for a couple of the people I am teaching? First we have Luis and Judith. They want to get baptized, but the husband is hesitant. They didn't make it to church this Sunday, so I'm a little cautious as to what might happen when I see them tomorrow. Next is Marcelino and Carina: these two are fantastic, except Carina is just a little nervous about getting baptized again. We've been working with them and we are going to do all that we can to help them enter the waters of baptism this week! Coolest thing, they're both legally married. That is a huge surprise. We're trying to help both of these marriages rise from the ashes, as they are both struggling and want out of the hole they are slipping into.
Well, I love you all. Have a fantastic week. Don't worry. Be happy. Read your scriptures and say your prayers and everything will turn out all right.
With much love,
Elder B
