So this week has been pretty good. My district is doing mas o menos some companion ships are struggling. I wish I had more time in district meeting I always run out. Kind of funny because when I first started I would try to drag the song and pray and stuff out so I would have less time. It all take experience I guess. I'm really struggling to animate the sisters in my district, I can´t do divisions with them so it is left to phone calls and DM I have been talking with the ZLs but I don´t know.
Anyway this week we had a couple good lessons one with Olga the women who lost her husband. We went with Danny the new branch president, her nephew (i will get the that later) and he gave a very powerful testimony of how he is coping with the lose. She is doing great she looks so much better. We saw her in the street the other day something we had never seen before. Her house is so much cleaner. It is probably a blessing her husband died. He had been struggling for over 8 years and she has as well now she can accept the gospel and do the work for her husband.
We also had another great lesson with Flavia and her 2 older daughters that have not come to church due to a lot of excuses so we taught 1 Nephi 3-5. It was really good. I think they will read more when we got to the part were Nephi cuts off Labans head, they all screamed it was really pretty funny. They are really good they just need to come to church. That is always the problem. Other then that this week has been hard, lots of contacts and lots and lots of walking.
This week I did divisions in Juan Lacaze a small town on the beach. It was good. I was with Elder Durand de Peru. He is a great guy! Convert of 2 years and has a strong testimony. We found a very evangelica lady and it didn´t look like she wanted to change but they went back another day and she said she had thought about getting baptized. We also visited an older women who is getting baptized at the end of the month. And when we walk into her house it smelled just like grandma Kaisers house. It was so trunky at the end of the lesson she asked me to give her a blessing. It was a kind of strange request but I did it. Probably one of the best I have given. I also helped an older couple start there genealogy yesterday they didn't know how to use there new computer. It really made me want to go visit Grandma Sue. I love genealogy. I need to learn more about it when I get back. That's about it for this week, I got stuff to do. Oh I guess I said I would tell you our branch was reorganized of Sunday President came out with his family. He gave me a tie and our investigators pictures of Jesus Christ with the kids, the really famous one signed by the artist. He was his neighbor. Also PB&J sandwiches and Cinnamon rolls. I miss home. I also bought a few souvenirs today first time in my whole mission.
Love you,
Elder Wray
