This week went well.
On Friday we had a leadership meeting in the mission home like all day and we talked about being disciples of Christ.
This week we have been teaching lots of people. We are teaching a couple named Norberto and Helena. They started to talk to us when we were on the bus like 3 weeks ago but we didn't get their information or anything. Then the other day in the street, we ran into them and they told us to come to their house. They are super-crazy and have a bunch of problems but are super-good. Helena almost got baptized like 15 year ago. They both really want to get baptized now after coming to church yesterday, but it's gonna be really complicated because they aren't married and Helena doesn't have any type of identification. She is actually half-American and always says that we are countrymen which makes me laugh.
Then we are teaching some teenagers, Solange and Kevin who are grand-children of a less active woman. Solange has been coming to church for like two months now and really wants to get baptized but her parents won't let her. But this week we ate lunch with them and met Kevin her older brother and invited him to church and he came and it was awesome so we willl have to see what their parents say.
We are teaching a man named Alan who is 28 and just got out of rehab for addictions. We took a member with us to visit him who had also had difficulties with addictions before getting baptized, and it turns out that they already knew each other so that helped a lot.
Anyway this week went well. I am enjoying everything and it feels like time is going by so fast. One funny thing that happened last night was like this guy come running up to me and said "wow how tall are you man" NO WAY! Then he run to his drunk friends and they all went crazy. But yeah it was a good week!
