Week 47 - Laser Focus (9/18/2017)

So this week has been a really good week and a little slow one too. To start off with Monday, we had exchanges and we had the opportunity to go and teach three kids who are just way amazing! The youngest one, who is 9 is totally prepared! She is ready for baptism and the oldest who is 11 is starting to follow along!! It's so great. We then tried some people, but no answer so we saw our neighbor and asked if we could do any service for them. They didn't have anything ready for us then. 

Tuesday, the exchange continues and we went and saw a house over in Raft River, or as I like to call it the Peruvian house. We got to talking with one of the guys there and just had a really cool time talking with him. He brought a lot of questions and luckily enough, we had the answers to those questions as we testified of the Message of the Restoration. It was really touching. We then unexchanged and went and tried some families in the area, but had little to find. 

Wednesday we had correlation and we talked a lot about the Hispanic workers here in the area and as to how we can help them progress. It was a struggle as we were talking and trying to figure out ideas. We eventually just said we'll go by the spirit and that's what we did. We went and talked with one of the families out in the rain (more like sprinkle) and talked with them about how important this Gospel is for the family. We then saw some other people and shared the exact same thing. 

Thursday! Zone Conference!! Made the drive up to Twin Falls and had Zone Conference and had a wonderful time as we talked about readjusting our sights and focus. We then made the drive back in terrible rain and I did not like driving in it, but we made it back safely. We then had dinner and went and knocked on some doors in the rain (this time for sure rain). We got one family to open and we started talking with them and sharing about the Book of Mormon. It was really great as we talked about it and it's power in conversion. It was just great as we answered this couple's questions.  We then made it back to our place and called it a night.

Friday and Saturday... So my companion got sick and we pretty much stayed inside just so he could feel better and I did a lot of studying. Pretty cool things that I learned.

Sunday we went to church and came back and Elder Marin is still not feeling very well. He was just down and under. Luckily I haven't caught it yet and I'm hoping to keep it that way. Today is the same still and luckily it's preparation day where we can go and get him some medicine that will hopefully kill whatever bug he has. It's been a great week and I just wanted to let you all know that you are cared about and that Heavenly Father has a plan for each and every one of you and that He loves each and everyone of you. I love you all and I miss you all!! Have a great week!!!
