Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!! This is gonna be my first Thanksgiving away from home ha it´s gonna be weird. But some of the people here actually celebrate Thanksgiving so it´s gonna be interesting to see what it´s like down here haha.
This week was an interesting one! We went to the doctor on Wednesday because I still wasn´t feeling to well and found out that I have Bronchitis! So that was kind of a bummer but I got some meds and I´m on my way back to being health again! ha hopefully it lasts for a while! It´s rained almost all day everyday this week so we think that has something to do with it. The doctor told me I needed to take a couple days and rest so we didn´t do as much work this week as we had hoped. But we´re hoping to get back at it this week if we can both stay healthy. My comp thinks he´s starting to get sick so we´re crossing our fingers that he doesn´t.
Tuesday we had an awesome day though. We taught some awesome lessons and the spirit was so strong! She was raised in the Catholic church and her family members are super against the church which is sad. But anyways Tuesday night we taught this girl about the restoration and prayer and the spirit there was so amazing. We asked her if she would pray that night to find out for herself if the things we had taught her were true. Wednesday morning we got a call from her and she was super excited and told us that she had received an answer to her prayer and she knew it was true! It was so awesome! We weren´t able to teach her again last week because I got sick but we set up an appointment with her for this week. We´re pretty sure she´s gonna be baptized pretty soon.
Other than that not a whole lot happened this week. The doctor said to rest for 3 days so we weren´t able to go out and teach as much. We still did a little but not a ton. But we had a lot of time to study the scriptures haha. It´s awesome the things you can learn when you read the scriptures. I love it! I wish we had more time to study because it seems like every time we study we find something that can help us become better missionaries by helping us in our teaching.
The mission is awesome! I love it! I love you all and thank you for all of your support and prayers!
