i might be in mexico but Im American dangit bobby!
this week my american comp and i decided that it was going to be independence week! we wore red and blue ties and spoke in southern accents. the members told us they think the heats getting to our minds.
well Wednesday we got some awesome news. two of our investigators told us they want to be baptized. their names are J and A. they are super awesome people. our goal has been to help sister A to quit smoking. at first i was a little unsure but she has had the determination to do it. she had us buy marshmallows and its been working haha. on sunday they both bore their testimony's and it was really powerful! they will be baptized on the 11th! thankfully we've had a lot of work! we never have enough time in the day and i swear we walk 10 miles a day. the bottom of one of my shoes fell off and i had to glue it back on haha then my comps back pack broke on the same day. thankfully he had another at the house.
this week we also had a lot of drunk people stop us haha. people say some pretty crazy things to us. i dont know if its because we're two gringos or if its the name tags but we're like magnets. they all feel so comfortable to share their crazy beliefs with us. were getting better at avoiding them. on friday night (since saturday night we were gonna be busy) we had hamburgers and the sister missionary's found rootbeer and made rootbeer floats. there weren't any fire works but it was still fun.
we've been really blessed with all the work we've had this week i just hope every thing keeps up.
