A Good Laugh

Hi!

This week was decent as far as I am concerned.  The weekly success of a missionary all depends on what happens on Sunday. To understand such a thing, you have to think about the process and the objective as a missionary is "to Baptize" and one can’t enter in to this covenant without the ordinance of the Sacrament. So if they don’t come to church they will never be baptized!! I was disappointed this week with a few people, who for one reason or another didn’t come to church.

We found and shared with a lot of people.  It is just they didn’t come to church and many of them have read and already are Great people and citizens who keep most of the commandments.  They will take a little more patience but they are doing fine.

It is amazing how understanding true knowledge of how the things really are, help one make the right decisions.  We are teaching the Ruiz Family; where the father has a great desire to learn.  And it was amazing how talking about Personal Revelation and the Word of Wisdom helped him understand the need he has in stopping drinking.   We have to talk and see how he is doing with that.

Hahaha.  So we were at lunch on Friday and the sister is telling us about what had happened last Sunday and why it smelled funky in the house. She said that her husband had cooked the dogs’ meat and had left it on the stove and went to lie down and forgot about it until she arrived home to a house filled with smoke and to find the bones more like charcoal than anything else.  Anyways, I see the face of my companion become incredibly shocked and I knew in an instant what the problem was.  I started laughing because he thought that they were cooking “dog meat” instead of the meat for the dogs.

Anyways, I got a good laugh out of that.
Love you all!
Have a great week!

Love,
