This week was definitely different.... hit my 9 month mark this last week. That was beyond strange. When did this happen? I feel like I just started my mission, but almost don't remember what it was like to not be a missionary. It's a very strange time, but I've past my mid-mission crisis.
In other news, we had a very crazy week. Wednesday was exchanges. I stayed in the area. We had a awesome lesson with a man named H-----. He had read the whole pamphlet we left him previously, and then some, and he came with some very intense questions. We taught a lot, and it was a little slower than we are used to, but I received two very nice compliments -- 1. "that we looked to good for the hood", and 2. "that it sounds like I learned Spanish on the streets and not in school." I was excited about that.
Thursday we did a lot of service. Friday was Zone Conference, and we took the journey all the way to Nashville. We didn't get home until very late that night. ZC's are always so great, and we learn so much!
This weekend we got a lot of opposition from a large Hispanic church in town. La Luz del Mundo. It felt like everyone we met was from that church. One of our most excited investigator we found out was an undercover member from that church. It's a very strange copycat church. We took a visit to the church, and let them know we meant business, kindly and respectively.
We had two investigators and like 40 members at church. Then we get to the third hour and had one man and one woman leave. So we are gong to work on that. Overall, we had an amazing and busy week!
Hope everything is amazing and wonderful with y'all. We are working hard and have big plans for this next week!
Spiritual thought- Diligence is the key, but love is the motivation.
