When the Missionaries Get Contacted...

During the week, we were walking to an appointment when a white car pulled over. The young man inside and his friend asked us what church we were from. When we responded, 'The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints' he began to ask some clarifying questions about Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon. We explained a good part of the first lesson and invited him to call us with any questions. About an hour later, he called! We answered and helped answer questions about the Sunday services in the chapel. He had committed to come! However, he was unable to come because his job sent him to Mexico City for the weekend. However, we were able to have a visit with him about an hour after he came back to Juarez. He had a lot of good questions that we were able to answer. He committed to reading the Book of Mormon! After our appointment, we received this message:
'Hola Buenas noches, muchas gracias a ambas por darse el tiempo de hablerme un momento de Dios. Espero poder conocer màs de su Iglesia'
It was a tender moment for the both of us and we are excited to keep teaching him!

This week:

- we painted a fence for like 3 hours

- we ate an entire box of costco muffins 5 days

- we met a literal bear dog

- still refusing to eat cactus

- we met a newly wed couple that melted my heart. 

- we met a nice old lady and her daughter who gave us pumpkin rolls :))

This work means so much to me and i am so very blessed to be a part of it. I know that my Savior lives and that he knows exactly how we feel and what we go through. I love Him and I know that He loves each and every one of you. I hope you all have a good week! 

Love y'all! :)
