Well I hope everyone had a good new years! Ha it was crazy down here just like every holiday here in Panamá haha.
Last p-day we went to this temple in our area called Templo Bahá´í. I guess there´s only 8 temples of this religion in the whole world! It was pretty interesting, it´s up on top of this huge hill and looks like a giant egg when you´re far away ha but it was pretty sweet to check it out.
This was a pretty good week though in the work! On Tuesday we went on splits with the AP´s. that was awesome!! We worked super hard and I learned so much from them! Because Elder Wade and I both don´t have a bunch of time in the mission we´re still trying to figure out what teaching methods work best for us. But the day we did splits with the AP´s we both learned a lot of new methods which we want to start using in our lessons to help make them better.
Last week as we were walking down the street and we stopped and talked to this lady that Elder Betanco and I had contacted last change but we were never able to go back and teach here. Well we were talking to her and she was super positive and wanted to learn more about the church so we set up a return appointment for this week. So we went back on Wednesday and it seemed like nobody was home so we were getting ready to leave and a bunch of little kids that were around the house started yelling at us and telling us that she was there. So we turned around and went back and again there was no answer. So we started to leave again and then the kids started yelling for her as well and then she came to the door. I guess she was in the back room of her house and couldn´t hear us. So we started teaching her about the Restoration and the spirit was so strong! It was so awesome! Ha it was towards the end of the day and so elder wade and I were tired so our Spanish was terrible haha but the spirit was there and it was so strong! We went back and taught her again later this week as well and the spirit was still super strong and she still super positive!
Ha I can´t believe it´s 2012 now. Last year went so fast! I’m super excited for this upcoming year though! It´s gonna be awesome!
Thank you all for everything!
