hey everyone, good stuff in mexico, maybe even an investigator to go with us to church tomorrow! oh ya by the way, to family, sorry for blindsiding you with a saturday email day, we had p day today cuz the mission president invited all of us to eat at his house today, so we all took our pday today instead.anyways. not as many investigators as id like but yanno what, the Lord gives us trials to work with always, and i know as long as i keep faith ill find some people to listen. I have one person in mind though since i got here, well like my first day i met her. Her name is Cristina. shes a sister of two members, one inactive and one active. cristina is pregnant, and were trying to teach her but shes skeptical. shes had it pretty rough and what not, but last night we ended up talking to her again after about a month, it was funny cuz she thought i didnt understand anything she was saying and she looked at me after i said something and asked, you dont understand any of this do you? whats going on tell me.. and then all of a sudden Elder Day who hadnt said much and had been thinking what to say tapped in and told her what was going on, and i saw a change in her eyes, that maybe we do care, and that she might want to listen. after she went inside and helped her mom who is sick, and then she sat on the couch right inside the door and quietly listned as me and Elder Lopez talked to her sister. i think shes starting to get worked on in her heart though, cuz right then i saw a change in her eyes, that she might want to know more, i dunno really honestly i feel an attachment to her, not like girl and guy attachment, but that im supposed to help her into this gospel yanno, and i have felt that since my first day, so i think that is one potential that i will keep working on, cuz i really just want to bring people into this gospel. it was funny, cuz i had to contact a Jehovas witness this week, and she went on to tell us that we were confused about everything that we were talking about, man those guys are hard to crack really. lol. but what im getting at everyone is that if i didnt believe in what im preaching, i wouldnt be here on my mission, its a lot of work, but its fantastic. so as i go on i want to let you all know that my testimony is growing of all this. the Lord has blessed me with miracles already, in spanish and everything, and i know that this is the Lords work and His restored gospel, and that he loves every one of us, even so much that he sends out missionaries around the whole world to preach this gospel, i believe it with every part of me, and i have felt the Lords love work through me to testify to people that He has a restored church on this earth for all of His children. i love you all! and i hope that you know im doing great! sorry everyone once again for blindsiding with a saturday email cuz you all werent able to email me this week, but i miss you all and hope its all good. and also... Tre Barnes where the frick is your letter you promised me on my mission!!!! quote "no dude dont worry im better at writing than answering the phone" .... fool imma kill you! write me fool! and RJ, and Jackson, Email me, cuz first off, RJ i think you sent me a letter via dear elder, but you didnt put your name or your address you clown, and i could only guess by your language in your letter that it might have been you. fool. jackson. sorry i didnt write you back bro. but do you have an email that i can email you on or something? cuz i think by now if i send you a letter it will take forever to get to the US and you will be on your mission by then. so ya. ok i miss all you guys and hanging out with you. ok everyone i want you to know you are in my prayers as much as i remember! and i love you all and all of your prayers for me too they really really REALLY help. talk to you all next week!
Love Elder Day
