This week was good! and super busy. We hardly had time in our area and this week will be pretty much the same. I honestly dont have a whole lot to say. My companion has a electric grill so weve been making good use haha.

Germene came to church this week! Its a suppppppppppper long story, but ever since she was baptized (6-7 months ago) she hasnt came to church. She was baptized with her 85 year old mom, her kept active in the church but moved and so is now in another ward. we tried hard to help germene come to church but for a lot of reasons she lost her desire. this week (multiple times) i felt that we should go to her house to see how she was doing, but i didnt. I guess i felt that it was a feeling coming from me, and it didnt really make much sense. but i was extremely humbled when i saw her at church. Obviously i feel bad for not having listened to the Spirit but I am extremely grateful that my desobidence didnt stop her from coming to church. Its hard to describe the feeling i had when i saw her walk in. Im hoping she came back for good!

Mateus (who was baptized a month ago) is doing really well!! he does visits a lot with us and the other missionaries and is going to institute as well to prepare him to be a missionary in a year! we were with him yesterday and we had to stop but our apartment to get a paper we needed and so he waited outside and i had to call someone which ended up taking a while, so elder tem stuck his head out the window to tell mateus that we would be a minute or two more, and mateus was talking to someone on the street about the gospel and church!! he talked to two people while he waited for us 🙂 isnt he incredible!?

well i think thats ill, im doing well and i hope you guys are too! till next week!
