This week has just flown by! We have been able to have more appointments lately which has been fun. I love teaching about the gospel and bearing my testimony. 13 investigators went to church yesterday!! We have 2 big families and a few others that have been progressing a lot and going to church. One family is the Lopez Elles family and the other is the Baez Rojas family. The Lopez family has a baptismal date for July 30th and I really hope everything goes well so that they can complete it. I really want to see them be baptized. They are a really special family. A few members of the Baez family have dates for July 30th as well. However, we don't know if they will all be ready by the 30th.
I had intercambios with Elder Zuñiga on Friday which was fun. We were also able to find 2 less actives yesterday while looking for addresses in the rain. For one, we were standing under a tree to look at a paper and he called us into his house. Turns out he is less active and is the husband of another less active who we were told to visit earlier in the day. They don't live together but we were able to find out more about the family and we are going to try and visit him now. For the other, we found the address that was registered in the church records, but she had moved a few months before. We were told more or less where she moved to and after talking to people and looking, we found who we were looking for. It turns out that her house doesn't have an address...fun! ha ha. But we are going to pass by this week and talk with her and she said that she will probably go to church this week. There are still some problems with the ward and some misunderstandings with the missionaries. Let's just say that I'm learning a lot. It's been tough, but there is still hope. Talk to you guys next week!
