Week 48 - Rain Rain Go Away (9/25/2017)

So this week has been a pretty fun week. As for last week went on a quick split to teach 3 kids who are progressing so well and are on date for Baptism!! It was so amazing to see how excited they were as we set that date for them.

Tuesday Elder Marin was still sick so we spent all day at home till he recovered and we saw one person that night. The Miller Family. They are an amazing family and we went all the way to literal corner of our mission and saw them (found that out today). 

Wednesday Elder Marin was feeling a whole lot better and we saw some families after our District Meeting which was pretty cool. We then went and saw some people and struggled to find people home, but nothing too unusual. 

Thursday we had our weekly planning and we were going to do exchanges that night after a Baptismal Interview. All things went well and I was in the area to lead it out again which is always fun. Got to drive through mud in our nice Nissan Rouge which is now caked in mud. Pretty nice if I say so. We saw some people and then called it from there. 

Friday the exchange went on and right as soon as 10 hit, we were out seeing people. Literally had the hardest time finding anyone at home. It made me sad. We unexchanged and went to find more people. Ran into a problem since Elder Marin held onto the other Elders' phone so we had to run back and give it to them before dinner. Had dinner and tried some of the names dinner gave us and found some pretty cool people. We then went to the Dairy and tried some people, but met with one family and talked with them which was awesome!! They are like the only family at this dairy that fully listen and engage!! It's awesome!! We then called the night.

Saturday we went into Raft River and still had the same struggle, but we talked to as many people as we could. Had some success talking to people outside and people telling us to come back so that's always promising. We then talked to some people who didn't want us to come back, but it's okay. We did what we could. 

Sunday came and it was great. We went to church and after church they had a potluck lunch and we got to talk with a lot of the members getting to know them and finding out who speaks Spanish. Cause that'll help a lot. We then came back and did all of our studies and had dinner and then went a visited a family and they are so hilarious! They are just great. They told us they were going to General Conference which is exciting!! We hope they have a good time there. We then came back and saw some someone we've been trying to teach, but haven't been able to since Elder Marin got sick, but he faithfully goes to church! So we set a time that we could come back and talk and also a Baptismal date! 

This week has been pretty good and something to remember! I come closer and closer to my Savior each week as I try to walk that path that he has for us. I encourage all of you to listen to Spirit and listen to the Prophet's voice that we so gladly get to hear every 6 months. I know we've got a living Prophet today who leads and guides us. He loves us and our Heavenly Father Loves us. I love you all and I hope you all have a great week!!
