Hola Hermano Elder Johnson. Yo esto mucho feliz para tener te ouvido. Yo ensinei uno muchaco que habla espanhol. Yo endiendi que elle hablou para me. Buenes suertes com tu visto! te amo!
I totally just made that all up and I'm pretty sure that it is good Spanish for someone that hasn't ever really studied. I taught a guy from Peru last week and he spok in only Spanish and I was totally able to understand almost everything and with my broken Spanish I could teach him pretty well. It was really a good picker upper on the fact that I will be able to speak with
Russell when he returns. I just need to get a little studying down with el espanol.
This week was crazy cool! I did 220 contacts this week alone. (because still my comp doesnt feel like helping much). You would think that with all these contacts I would have found tons and tons of elects. Out of these 220 there is one elect that will be baptized next week, and the funny thing is....he contacted me.
We are commanded as missionaries to work dilligently and with all our heart might mind and strength and I am happy to say that I have been (excuse the language) working my behind off! The thing is... next week I am going to baptize a guy that didn't come from my labours because he contacted me. I got to thinking, we work to find people to baptize but I feel this week, I was working to show to the Lord that I deserved someone to baptize. This has become a testimony to me. My work and dilligence may not bring baptisms in its self, but in a whole it will bring baptisms because I am proving to the Lord that I deserve these people! His name is Sergio and he is very excited. He was taught by Sister missionaries about 20 years ago and he liked them alot but for some reason never was baptised. Last week when we were entering the church with him he said... the prodigal son returns to his father's house. I thought it was amazing.
So this week I'm going to call home. Sorry Russell you wont be there but just think about it this way.. youre going to call home in no time and I'll be there to hablar contigo there!
love you all!!!
untill Sunday
