this week was good. it got up to about 105 this week. sunblock, umbrellas and waters been getting us through. thankfully its only hot from 11 to 4 then its in the 90s.
on tuesday i went in splits with the leaders de zona. i was with elder Ramos in his area. their area is flat in the city. it was nice not to have to hike in a tie. he was really fun to work with. when we left the house to start working some members invited us to eat at this Mexican version of KFC. it was pretty sweet. then we had a lesson with a less active guy and his girl friend. they own a tattoo shop, we taught them there. They are both from the US but moved to La Paz. they spoke a lot of spanglish with me. it was a really awesome lesson, the brother has a desire to come back and his girl friend has awesome questions and accepts everything we taught. we had a pretty successful day.
on saturday the stake had an open house and showed "meet the mormons". all the missionaries brought their investigators. this was the third time I've seen it in spanish. this time i pretty much understood all of it. the movies really powerful and our investigators really liked it. the members are awesome too, so after we saw meet the mormons one of my investigators said to thank you specifically for this sacrifice. she was really touched by the story of the mom . i hate / love watching that part cuz it also reminds me of you. all the missionarys get a little teary eyed when we watch that part. and so did my investigator. haha she told me she just wants to meet you and hug you haha by the way we will be baptizing her in two weeks! love ya
hope you guys had an awesome week!
