We are getting ready for Caterin´s baptism for the 5th of September. She is really excited about it. We have also started teaching a girl named Scarlett. She is like 25 years old and lives alone. We actually contacted her at her mom´s house and she told us to go to her house later on in the week. Well she is really accepting of us and really open to what we share. She told us that she doesn’t believe in Jesus Christ, as in that she doesn’t think that God would let His Son go through all that he did for us. She is really accepting of everything else and yesterday, she came to church. She liked it a lot but had to leave after sacrament meeting. She asked us if we could come by on Saturday and that next Sunday she would be able to stay in church longer. Other than that, we are busy looking for more people to teach.
My companion is doing well. His Spanish is getting a lot better and we are getting along great. Someone actually found a picture of us from my blog and sent it to his brothers haha…weird how things get around. This past week, I did interchanges with elder Watkins. It was fun to take him around my sector and chat a bit. Well that’s what all is going on this week. Things are going well and all.
Take care and love you guys! Chao elder nelson
