I'm doing great! Language is here! And sometimes not. I
understand a lot and I've been speaking a lot more with members and non
members. So that's always great to have. After a few long weeks of no solid
investigators we finally have two! It's a weird set of people but they're
amazing. We are teaching Ruth and Eduardo. Ruth is about a 60 year old lady and
Eduardo is 42. They happened to meet in the street because Eduardo was injured,
out of work, and needed a place to sleep. So Ruth, being the Saint that she is,
is letting him sleep in her room for a while. So here's where the miracles play
in. Ruth, has read the entire Gospel Library. And believes it all. The only
reason she isn't baptized is because she's never been able to find the
missionaries. Until now. We found her more than a month ago. Tried to teach
her, but lost contact. About a week ago she called us and wanted us to come
over. We taught her and she wants to be baptized SO bad. Not only that, she's
already doing more member work than lot's of American wards do. She's brought
at least two friends to every lesson, and one, being Eduardo, has the craziest
desire to be baptized as well. He's had really bad experiences with churches
but came to church yesterday and he told us the Spirit was talking to him and
that he knew he needed to be in this church. So Ruth and Eduardo are our
miracles for this month! Not only that, when we taught the Word of Wisdom, I
asked if I could take his coffee from him. He gave me two full giant cans of
his coffee and then told me how much he liked me and how much we liked to help.
Such a good week. A quick one for sure. And you'd never believe it. I have some
pictures for y'all. But I'll send them in separate emails. Love you all! Thanks
for the prayers!
A few members of the ward had a birthday party on the same
day as Elder Naressi's birthday.
Lots of non-members there too.
I found Zion. Mission: Complete. Jokes, it's a Lutheran High
School.
