This
week went by so fast. This transfer is only 5 weeks so that the mission
will be on the same schedule as the MTC so time is flying by.
This week we did a lot of finding and we actually had some decent
success. They say that 1 our of every 1000 doors that you knock will
actually let you in. This week we actually got let in twice so that was a
miracle. These Hindu guys let us in and we started talking with them
and they told us they have 23 million gods. It was a pretty crazy chat
with them. It makes me happy that our religion makes a lot more sense.
Most of us can't even listen to one let alone 23 million.
We are making some good progress with two of our
investigators. One is Italian and speaks Portuguese and Italian and the
other is Brazilian and speaks Portuguese. We have been using Portuguese
speaking members to translate for us and it has been going well.
Saturday a member invited us and our ami over for dinner and a lesson.
We taught him by using the member as a translator. I have sat in on so
many Portuguese lessons that I don't even need the member to translate
what the investigator said half the time. It's crazy how much all the
Latin based language are alike.
We should be fixing some baptism dates soon so that will be good.
This
will for sure be my last week in Lux. I am looking forward to a change
of scenery but it will be crazy to leave after being here so long.
Hope you all have a great week. I am so excited to hear about Brady's mission call!
