Week 16

Well new years happened, and I know what you all are thinking. That it was NUTS in south america. Well... not in Carlos Antonio Lopez!! haha We got to stay up until midnight, and we were just talking, then we looked at the phone and it was 1202 haha. We had all the windows open, and nothing even happened. haha no noise. It was funny., We jumped up, high fived, and said HAPPUY NEW YEAR, and then we went to bed. haha were in the middle of nowhere

There was a huge storm here. It blew out the power in the whole city for a couple days. And we didnt have water for a couple days, either. But were rarely in our apartments, so it wasnt a big deal.

One of our investigators is the Paraguayan Kramer. He lives in a really nice house, but doesnt really work. Hes really skinny, and middle aged. He has the same hair. He makes the same movements. He kinda believes everything and remembers everything that anyone tells him. Which is both good and bad for us. Because he believes us, and likes the restoration, but also believes all the other religions, too. So thats a bummer.

We found two guys in their 20s with young families, who were both child hood friends with the familiy of members here. They really respect the family, and the religion, but had never heard the missionaries before. We taught them, and they both essentially said ´´well thats the most logical religion that ive ever heard of``. Which is true, but im not sure if thats really a good way to look at it. I truly hope that they will try to gain more than just logic. Because its not the logic that gives me my testimony, its the joy and happiness that comes from living the gospel, and truly seeking the Spirit. The feeling that i get from seeking the Spirit are incredible.

Well, i hope you all are eating well, because I have had the best meat that i have ever eaten in my life. Brazillian. Just like rodizio. Put the skewer on my plate, and saw off the meat, as i grab it with my fork. And its delicious

The church is true!

Have a nice day!
