Well family and friends it has been another crazy week.
Hermana Gibson & I are still doing very very well. We are working as hard as ever. We have a lot of area to cover and we are trying to get to everyone. Our area goes from Benerjafe, velex-Málaga, algarrobo, torrox pueblo over to Maro. That is the outside and then all the way down to the ocean. Our bus trips are like 40 to 15 minutes whenever we go anywhere. Then our district leader asked us to go see some less actives in Almuñecar when we visit a reference from one of the members of our branch. That is a hour bus ride. We spend a lot of time on the bus. We try to contact as much as we can in our travels and we have met some amazing people. In Almuñecar we were running for our bus because we couldn't miss it because we had to be back for a meeting with our branch mission leader. We RUN into the station because we are 5 minutes late and this really nice man asked where we were going. We tell him Nerja and he smiles tells us to take a breath and calm down. The bus hasn't come yet and then proceeds to help us buy tickets. As we are talking like all good missionaries do we ask if he has heard about the Book of Mormon. He says he has but he has always wanted to know more. We got his name and phone number. He lives in Almuñecar. We gave the elders in Motril his info because that is technically not our area. The Lord definately sends us people to talk with.
Yesterday we went looking for an old future that Hermana Gibson thought we should go see. She wasn't home BUT her husband was. He invited us back. He has had the elders over before but he was really nice. We totally weren't expecting THAT! we are excited to teach them because that is a FAMILY! Families can be together forever. And it is always nice to share that with such a great family.
Investigators are doing very well. We of course have the same ups and downs as every missionary but the Lord never lets the downs last very long. On the days that it seems like no one wants to listen or even cares the Lord guides us to some of our best investigators. I feel very privledged to be able to share this message of the restored gospel of Christ with such great people.
Also we are trying to strengthen the branch. We have a Noche de Rama planned. Well being planned. It is going to be a Family home evening but for the branch. We are really excited. This branch is amazing. They love the Lord so much and are excited to share the gospel with everyone they know. We had a new investigator in church on sunday because one of the members brought him along. They are great missionaries. I hope to be like them when I get home.
Hope everyone is doing well. I love you all. Know you are in my prayers. I will try to write everyone back. It may take me a bit though. Sorry.
Love,
Hermana Petru
