Hello family and friends!,
This week we worked hard and have had a lot of success and
also a lot of let downs. So we had two fechas this week but the first one
decided to go to an Evangelical Church and feels like he recieved
reconciliation with God and doesn't want us to visit him constantly and also
the other church prayed for him so he feels like he's found what he was looking
for. Also, our other fecha decided not to go to church because her dad had to
go do an errand and she can't go by herself because she is 10 years old.
But we are planning to get 2 or 3 fechas this week and
hopefully they can keep their commitments and also pray and specifically ask if
this is true. Because if they ask specifically, with a desire to know the
truth, I know that they will recieve an answer. Also, some great news for in
two weeks is that an apostle is coming to talk to us on March 18! It's going to
be awesome because its in the capital so we will feel a little cool when we go
to the capital!
So right now in Zacapa is starting the hot season and the
summer! I cant wait! NOT. haha I'm kinda tired of feeling hot every day and
every night. But it doesn't matter what I want, it's where the lord needs me
and where I will make the biggest impact.
So this week we got to try star fruit which in Spanish is
called carambola and we got another weird fruit from some investigators. So
some funny stories from this week is that we talked to a member and I asked her
if she had a testimony of the Book of Mormon and her responce was that she lost
her head a few years back and so she doesn't have a testimony...haha but she
attends church every week and says the church is true and the Book of Mormon is
true too... haha oh well.
Also, we ran into another guy in the street who said that we
promised him a watch the next time we saw him so my comp took out his half
broken watch and the guy took it and gave him a hug and told us where he lives
for us to visit him next week. Then on Saturday we had a lesson with some new
investigators and the 10 year old boy had a question. So he asked us how old we
were and we said, well, how old do you think we are? and he responded and said
my comp was 32 years old, Brandon (a member, who's a preist) was 22 years old
and I was 25 years old. haha I have never heard that I look like I'm 25 years
old! I have only heard that I am 17 or 18, so it made me feel like I am growing
up!;)
Ya so that was pretty much our week and also I was reading
in Mosiah 3 and 4 today and in chapter 4 it essentially talks about charity and
helping people and not judging. I invite you guys to read those chapters this
week and see how you guys can apply those chapters in your lives. I know that
we all can better ourselves in charity and in not judging people.
Well thank you guys for all your support and for your love!
I love you guys too!
LOVE Elder Flygare
