On Wednesday,
we had the pleasure of contacting a reference from our zone leader. She
was very friendly and kind. She had been visited by the missionaries
before quite a few years back. When she told us that they had only come 3
times, my companion and I felt a little bad trying to think of why they
had stopped visiting her, maybe because of transfers and they both left
or they missed their appointment and never took the time to come back?
We didn't know....until about 5 minutes later. This woman is very very
catholic and likes to Bible Bash. Of course we didn't bash back but oh
my goodness. I sat and listened to her tell us that we needed to look
through the eyes of God and not through the eyes of men and see that
every person has the original sin (meaning we're all responsible for the transgression of Adam) and that we needed to realize that our Book of
Mormon was full of errors when compared to the Bible and on and on. Man,
was I ready to get out of there when we finally got to leave. My
companion was a little angry and I was just a little frightened.
Especially because my companion set another appointment with her! O.O
Our next appointment is on Wednesday
and I have no idea why my companion decided that it would be a good
idea to return. Not that she has to worry though, seeing as how she has transfers.
Also on Wednesday,
we found out that I'm going to be a trainer! O.O Talk about excited and
terrified at the same time. Excited because the Lord and the President
think I'm ready to train someone new and terrified because I don't think
I'm ready at all. =P
We had intercambios (exchanges) this week and it was
awesome! I was in Amalucan with Hermana Martinez who is just the most
lovely and kind person ever. I didn't want to leave her area or her. She
was so encouraging and loving that I felt like I could do anything. :D
We had the opportunity to do a lot of service on Saturday.
We visited a less active member who broke a bone in her right arm and
now only has one hand that works. We helped her fold her clothes and
wash her dishes. It was great to finally get to do some service. Then we
visited one of our investigators that has a water purifying business.
She was alone and so we decided to help her with her work of fill up
bottles and bottles of water and sealing them so that they can sell
them. It was alot of fun and very very wet. =P
