Hammers and Fences and Roofs, Oh My!


This week’s been really good!

I want to start by telling an experience of what happened this past Thursday.

We went by to talk with a man by the name of Carlos. He lived some 25 years in the United States! So, we went by his house because we planned to walk together to the church for the lesson we were going to have. When we get to the door, he comes out in a San Francisco sweater (it was 85 degrees mind you) and a bald eagle USA hat!! I loved it!! We walked to the church talking a little about his time in California and the things he liked about the states.

Once we arrived at the church, we were able to show him the chapel, baptismal font, and we watched a video because he was short on time. He really enjoyed our time together and said that he would come to church on Sunday! Really cool experience actually!! On Sunday, he arrived 15 minutes early!!!! 

Since being companions with Elder Moore, we have been doing lots of service. The members found out about my companions’ skills with building things. Last week we had some 10 hours of service hahaha. We built a fence for a sister in our ward and we helped to build a fence for another sister.

On Monday, we had a zone conference with the mission and it was awesome! It got us motivated and fired up! Great things are happening here in the zone and in the mission!
Afterwards, we went to the house and we went out and we had a really great day! We went to work, and we found a very kind Haitian man who was really humble and was really receptive to our message and even asked us where the church was before we invited him!! Looking forward to our follow up lesson with him in these next few days.

Following that, we went on splits with two future Elders from our ward and we were able to help them with their preparation for their missions. We had two really good lessons with investigators! 




Today, we went to the temple and we had a great day. It’s always great to feel the spirit and to be there.
