Things
feel more and more normal every day here in TEPIC! I’m slowly liking everything
more and more. We have a good pool of investigators and have been able to find
some more Menos Activos in our área so we have been kept busy! We had a Ward
talent show on Friday and oh my goodness it was so much fun! It did start an
hour late which was so bad because we had an investigator family agree to come
with us named the Bustamentes. We have been working really hard to try and get
them to go to church. When they agreed to come to the activity and their
daughter agreed to sing with the Young Women, we were so excited! We went and
picked them up and Patty the mom came with all three of her kids! We felt so
bad they had to wait so long for it to start we were so worried they were going
to leave but they didn’t. They stayed the whole time and it was so fun! The
Young Women sang a song call “Corre” that is really popular here and Hna Muro
played the piano for them. Then they danced to the whip song ha! People played
the guitar. The primary kids dressed up and danced to “Thriller.” The second counselor
and his little boy sang a song and dressed alike. They sang “You’ve Got a
Friend in Me” from Toy Story. The Young Men did a break dance thing it was fun.
The music was really loud and all of the missionaries were like “uh can we be
here” haha. It was well attended and everyone had so much fun not to mention we
had tostadas after hmmmmm.
I
guess I’m going backwards but Thursday was such a great day for me. I can
honestly say it was one of those days where I really truly felt like a
missionary. Sometimes it’s hard because of the language barrier for me to
really teach and help someone but on Thursday morning we went and visited a
less active, Irving. He had a lot of questions about the Book of Mormon and it
was the greatest thing. I was understanding all of this questions and without
help or anything I answered all of this questions and it just felt so good!
After the lesson Hna Muro told me that I sounded so good and I said everything
correctly. And honestly the rest of the day felt like I was on a spiritual high
or something haha I hope I can say that. But I can honestly say it is because I
had an amazing personal study. I gained an even stronger testimony that our
studies really do effect our day. But of course, this amazing feeling didn’t
last forever... Our entire building didn’t have water starting Friday night
till this morning... it was terrible and put us both in a pretty bad mood. And
then Saturday, nobody was home. Like at all. Our investigators left for the
weekend so we did a lot of walking around trying to find people to at least
contact. The Bustamente family promised they were going to come to church but
when we went to pick them up they weren’t home.... neither was the less active
that promised he was going to come. We were way bummed. And it was slow with
everyone still gone. But on the brightside we got our water back this morning
and we went to the Centro here in Tepic where they have a ton of places to shop
and eat. And we have appointments tonight so let’s hope everyone is back from
vacation! Although this week been all over the place, it has had its good and
bad, but I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else. I hope you all have a good
week!
Con amor,
Hermana
