Hey Family!
Hope you all are doing good. This past week was pretty good, kinda emailing late today because we went to the temple this morning at 11 and we just got back, it was super crowded but really good. It's always nice to go to the temple. So earlier today too in the morning we went to go help a brother with roofing, which was pretty fun. I hadn't done service in a while so it was a good workout... but after like an hour and a half my legs were killing me! haha, man it was tiring - still good though. We have another service project this Friday with our ward mission leader, Hno. Webb, it's funny because he owns his own little bus! haha and it's always just cruising right in the front and so i don't know what we are helping him with on the bus, we might paint it or just clean it up a little bit. I'll take some pictures so you guys can see.
Oh, this past Sunday we had a sweet lesson with this family like right before calling it a night. perfect timing too, we got there at 8:30 pm almost, and they let us in and we taught them about about God of course and about prayer and they really opened up and it went way well. Afterwards it was cool because the husband came out with us to our car and just thanked us for coming over and sharing God's word with them because he really appriciates it and wants to keep learning and having us over!!!! wooooo! That's what i am talking about. We are pretty stoked about that. This other night, on Saturday, we went to go visit this super nice lady, and we taught the restoration and she thought God was a spirit and some kind of energy but we explained it and taught her about how He has a body and that it's the Holy Spirit we feel when we get that energy or whatever she was saying, and she just sat there amazed and was wow! ok yeah yeah that makes sense. So another fist pump! We were pretty stoked again and she's reading and praying, so now we are just trying to help her get to Church.
What else is happening... Oh Ricardo and Flor are still coming to Church, still ready for their baptism, it's on the 20th, but we have transfers this next week already, which is crazy! If you guys wouldn't mind praying that time goes by slower kus man it's going by too quick! So yeah, and we the branch is getting a little bit smaller too because a family is moving out, which is a bummer. Oh well, we got a couple more families that we are teaching and still trying to find more.
Um ...oh, funny story. We were in this appointment this week and we were talking about the Apostles - Peter, James and John. But i was saying their names, and i said "si, San Pedro, San Juan and then.." then i dont know why, but i couldn't say san santiago. Instead i said san diego haha. Everyone started cracking up, it was pretty funny. So now we got another new Apostle San Diego.
So yups. everything is going really good here. The work is getting better each week, it's like this ongoing ramp. which is way good we just got to keep it going. Oh, we found out that there is a less-active member who works at a donut shop...oh yeah baby! So we went there the other morning and got some donuts! She's a super nice lady too. i guess we got to keep going and visiting her.. oh well no complaints here. Hopefully one of these days the owner of L and L will be a member. Still got the fingers crossed.
Wel,l hope everything is going good. Love you guys! Have a good week!
Elder Thomas
