I are already on our 3rd P-Day together! I feel like we just got back
to our apartment on her first day haha. It has been awesome to learn
and teach beside her these last 3 weeks! I am so thankful for the
opportunity to be the trainer here! I just keep remembering my first
few weeks, not being able to understand Spanish, not knowing how to
teach at all, and being completely confused about the area and the
buses! Now, I can just get around wherever I want and I can understand
everything without trying. It's truly amazing that after only 7 months
that I can speak Spanish!! It's such an amazing gift from my Father in
Heaven!
Little up-date on our investigators...
Brenda is doing good. She came to church again but she still has lots
of really deep questions and doesn't fully understand the simple
stuff. So we are working on that slowly but surely haha. She loves
learning about the facts and the in-depth information and really
understands it but can't build her testimony because she doesn't
really have anything to build on.... so we are working on that! We
have taught her everything that we have to teach her before baptism so
now we are just teaching what she needs to progress to that!
Oriana is awesome too! We got to see her like 4 times since last
Wednesday haha. We saw her Friday and Saturday night at Brenda's
house and we got to meet her husband! And actually talk with him and
all of them together. It was awesome! He got to see that we are really
just normal people and not crazies haha. She finally downloaded the
Book of Mormon on her IPod so she can read it easier and we invited
her to read it in Spanish first because we have been teaching her in
English with her daughter but it's always so much easier to understand
in our native language! She is doing awesome though! She even helped
explain some of the things we were teaching to Brenda on Saturday!
It's sweet!!
Besides that, there isn't much happening!
But, guess what!?!?! It's so awesome haha
We were looking up a potential investigator and she didn't open the
door but her friend did. She is from Colombia and was super nice! We
were just talking a little bit about her friend and about us and our
church and stuff and all the sudden she asks me if I'm from Mexico!
She said, wow, you're Spanish is so good! I thought you were from
Mexico! Then on Monday we were at the mall for lunch with our Zone,
and we know this lady who we are trying to teach as well who works at
the mall. So we were talking to her and she asked me if Spanish was my
first language! haha I about died and thought she was kidding but she
was serious! She said, your Spanish is so good! I can't believe it's
not your first language! Can you believe that! It's soo cool!!
Haha, anyways, thats about all that happened this week! What did you
all think of conference! It was AMAZING!!!
Well, I love you guys so much and I hope you have an amazing week and
I can't wait to hear from you next week!
Love, Hermana Bloxham :)
