Hey everyone! Hope everyones doing great! This week has been pretty
normal and nothing too interesting happened!
One thing that i have noticed in these past couple of weeks is that its
really pretty hard to do missionary work down here when the World Cup is going
on!!! Haha almost all the houses we walk by have the world cup going on and its
pretty rude to tell them to turn off something that only happens every 4 years!
So that has made the work a little more difficult in the past couple of weeks
but luckily it will be over soon!
My new companion and I are getting along great so far! He pretty fun and
hes a funny guy! He has some magic tricks and things he does to the kids to gain
their trust. I also have some magic tricks that we do sometimes and its a
really good way that we can get the trust of the people so thats something
pretty cool! Hes got a different way of teaching from Elder Flores but we just
have to get used to the way that each other teaches and thats something the
mission teaches you really well!! How to change and adapt to new situations! As
of 2 days ago President Risso went home and President Williams got here!
Today was the first day that we wrote to him and im pretty sure that on saturday
hes going to come to Jaen to present himself to everyone! Should be a neat
experience to have 2 presidents and to learn from each one!
This week we have been visiting Gregori and he finally told us a little bit
more about his doubts! He has Catholic friends that are feeding information to
him at the same time as we are so i think hes getting a little confused. So we talked to him and hopefully this week we can talk with his friends
too and maybe help them out too! Hes also been researching a lot about the Book
of Mormon and things like that and he knows a lit ow and he has a lot of
questions that really aren't super important! We told him that if he
really wants to know that the church is true he needs to read the Book of Mormon
first and analyze whats in it! Hopefully he can clear some doubts by reading the
Book of Mormon! Hes really got a desire to know though which is really good! He
didnt come to church this Sunday though so well have to see what happened when
we visit him tomorrow! We also went to visit Eduardo who is another investigator
who was ready for baptism but then he got bronchitis and the doctor said he cant
get wet. He's getting better slowly so he should be able to get
baptized soon! Other than that we have just recieved some references from some
members and some of them seem really cool! We just have to do some following up
this week and see how theyre doing! Other than them we dont really have anybody
thats ready to be baptized here really soon. So it looks like we got our work
cut out for us!
Other than that we havent really had anything too big happen lately! Hope
everyone has a great week! I know His church is true!! I have seen the blessings
in other peoples lives and the changes they have made and how they have come to
know that this church is true! God wants to hear all of you talk to him through
prayer too! He wants to bless all of you! Love you guys!
Love,
Elder Jarman
