It never stops raining here!!!!! And when it is not raining
it is so hot!!!!!!! I’ll send you some pictures, our street turns into a river
when it starts raining and we can’t even leave the house.
But this past week was awesome other than that. We had our
meetings in our ward for the first time in the 6 months that I have been here
and what a great help it was. It is so nice to have some help now. It takes a
real load off of our backs. We were able to get 6 investigators to church this
week which is the highest that I have had here in Mao, and all of them showed
up before the members and were ready to go. Jose and Isabel are doing really
well and we are trying to get them to the judge this week so that they can get
married and baptized. Winston went to church for the first time and it was a
little different for him without all of the yelling and people "speaking
in tongues" but he liked it. He felt a huge difference in our church and
the other evangelical churches he has gone to in the past.
We are supposed to get some good references this week to
start completing some families which will be fun and we should have some
success.
So funny story, there is a ward temple trip next week so the
bishop had our ward secretary pull up a list of people of expired recommends so
they could get an interview with the bishop and the first person that showed up
on the list was the Bishop, ha-ha and then he tried to deny it. Oh our bishop
sometimes...
Well I’m glad that Dad and Brittney got home safe, and that all is well. I wish y’all the best of luck this week and hope that y’all have a great week!!!!
Love,
Elder Smith
