Happy Monday!
We had a great week again! We have been having some great successes is our area! Every day we are seeing miracles!!
We just recently had something called our "Super Planning Session"!!! It's like a weekly planning that lasts 6-8 hours haha. We couldn't proselyte for elections day so that's what President came up with. It was so good we came up with a lot of ideas to hasten the work a little bit more! We came up with a lot of stuff to improve our street contacts. One of the things we will definately apply is singing hymns for door contacts, like hymn caroling!! It had a lot of success in our exchanges with Chincha II. We put a lot of goals about the Book of Mormon! We decided that once people begin to actually read and ponder the Book of Mormon, they won't be able to put it down!!
We had a lot of success with General Conference, even though it didn't really look like it at first. We only had 3 investigators, Edita and her children, Tatiana and Matias. that watched conference but they loved it and are doing the things neccessary to get baptized!! It was amazing!
The only thing is, I didn't watch General Conference haha. The Church of Jesus Christ couldn't have meetings due to elections, I will watch all of it next week. I watched just the Sunday Morning Session when Russel M Nelson burned the entire church and Jeffery R Holland burned everyone that are holding grudges and when the YW President called Elder Uctdorf a German Shepard and when the Elder from the Seventy gave an absolutely fire talk about the Book of Mormon.
A little bit about the people. Our couples that aren't married absolutely lost their marbles and don't want to be married anymore. A seriously unexpected turn because they were all excited haha. The Paucar family got discouraged thanks to having no support from the family, and Luis wants a huge party when he gets married. Edita and Sergio just got separated because he drank again. It was a roller coaster for em. But we have an investigator that will get baptized on the 27th. Her name is Koraima. She knows its all true already. We just gotta work with keeping the fire burning.
That's about all from me thanks for reading the good ol letter.
I LOVE USTEDES MUY MUCH!!!
