Furnace of Affliction

Hey guys how as y’alls week been? It sounds like everything has settled down a bit with not having all of the sporting events to go to. And yes there is only 2 more weeks in the transfer.... So what more does Dad need to do to be able to get his license? Man I can’t believe that Corbin is driving my baby, man do I miss having my dodge. I will love being able to go to the supermarket and back without having to carry all of the bags with me and I can just throw them in the car. It’s starting to get hot here and is becoming the "Furnace of affliction" (1 Nephi 20:10).  

But this past Monday was Independence Day in this country so it has been a hard past couple of days. For Jose and Isabel to get married we need to get her birth certificate and then we will be good to go. They are doing awesome and will be firm members of the church after their baptism. So we have found out in the past couple of weeks that Wilson, one of our investigators, has 2 women and has another family and kids but is always at Morena's house. So my comp and I told him that he couldn’t do that after explaining the law of chastity and for not being able to describe it in other words he got pissed! So he doesn’t want to share with us anymore but Morena wants to throw him out and get baptized. We are also working with our American Dominican, Luisandro, but he is indecisive between our church and another evangelical church. We are trying to find new investigators because we need them. At least we are teaching our 1st counselor's brother and he has a ton of desire to get baptized so hopefully we have his baptism in a couple of weeks.  

Tonight Elder Leiva and I are going to go and crash our Bishop's daughter's wedding in the chapel. We at least we are going to go and eat cake so that will be good enough for me. I hope that everything keeps going well and that y’all have a great week! 

 Love,

 Elder Smith
