This week was one of a kind hahah. All I can say is I have been rolling with the punches.
The new kids (aka new missionaries) showed up to the CCM this week!! I was so excited to scare them with my 3 weeks of Spanish hahaha!! When they pulled up I started talking to all the little hermanas in straight Spanish and they all looked like deers in the headlights ahaha I felt so bad for them because I was just like them a couple weeks ago!
Because all the new kids are here we are at max capacity of 152 missionaries hahaha It is so nice going to a small MTC because you seriously get to know everyone!!
This week took a turn when literally BOTH of my districts teachers decided to switch classes because there was a miscommunication??? It is such a long story but basically we got new teachers and it was a little hard for our district.
On a happy we note we got to teach our FIRST REAL LIFE INVESTIGATOR!!!!!!!! It was so so awesome!! We got to teach about the plan of salvation and the love god has for her. I learned that the spirit will move you when he needs you to get something done haha!
Then we got to go street contacting in downtown Guatemala city!!! I PLACE MY FIRST EL LIBRO DE MORMON!!!! I was pumped!! I was giving him the back story on it and then I asked him if he would read it that night and he straight up was like no. So I said, ¨"PORQUE?" and he responded with his concerns about the Book of Mormon, he said it does not testify of Christ so I cracked open the book and gave him some examples and showed it truly is another testament of Jesus Christ. Entones I proceeded to re ask him if he would read it that night and he said YES!!! It was the best feeling to know I helped bring some light to the subject of the Book of Mormon in his life!
I have been told that I am super BOLD when I teach. My comp always says that I am not afraid to bring up to questions nobody wants to ask hahah. I think I can thank the spirit for that. I know how important this message is and I know that it can change lives.
Me and my comp got to teach relief society this week!!! It was a super good experience and we have gotten so good at teaching lessons as a team!!
This week was just another week of learning patience with the language and having patience with myself. A quote that really hit me hard was "The Lord calls us in our weakness, but qualifies us for the work". I cannot say amen enough times to that quote. The lord will never call us to do something without being there to support us. He will always be there to raise us up during the times we feel the most unqualified. I love you all and hope you guys have an amazing week!! Dos semanas mas until RETALHULEU!!
Con Amor,
Hermana Salisbury
