Well I now have 4 1/2 months going on 6 here in David. We got the call around midnight Monday night telling us that Elder Oliva had changes and that I´m going to be staying here another change. We were both pretty surprised by it but oh well ha we just keep on doin the work! The Lord wants me here for a reason, so I´m gonna do all that i can to do His will.

 

My new comp is Elder Montero from Costa Rica and has about 5 months in the mission. He´s a really quiet guy ha he talks less than I do if you all can believe that. Our investigators were like he doesn´t talk very much does he?? Haha but it´s been fun getting to work with him so far, although he doesn´t talk much he has a really strong testimony of the gospel and is really good at teaching it to people. It´s been an adjustment after being with Elder Oliva for 3 months but we´re workin on it and I know we´re gonna see some more miracles this change.

This week we went contacting in a part of our area where I´ve only gone a few times just to see what we could come up with there. The first two houses we contacted were awesome! They´re actually right next to each other and they´re family. The first one talked about how a few years ago her husband died and so we began teaching her about the Plan of salvation, she was super interested and had a bunch of really good questions! Her sister, who lives next door, had a lot of questions about why there are so many churches and the differences between what every church teaches. So we taught her about the restoration and it answered a ton of the questions that she had.

 

That´s about all i have for this week ha changes took up a lot of the week but we´re looking forward to this next week to see what miracles we can bring to the people here in David!

 

thank you all for everything!
