Week Thirty-two!
This
week has been pretty good. We are working with a lot of new people this
week and they are all really good. But I
have been thinking about my time here in Mantaro and really there are a few
people that stand out.
First is Omar 1:
Because there are two and I think I have said a thing here or
there about him. He is an attorney his
wife is a less active return missionary and they’re about 30 but he also
studies a lot about science and philosophy and he has some belief in a God like
being, but also has a lot of questions. It
is so fun to teach him because I get to share the way I think of things. Like I’m not just sharing my testimony I get
to share my process in gaining a testimony. Like he was talking about the Big Bang theory and
because of the Big Bang Theory he thinks that God is more of an energy and Hna
Salinas is like wut! I’m just like, okay,
let’s think about it because in the church we believe in this energy it’s the
priesthood but something or someone needs to control it because you can’t just
have baking soda and vinegar sitting on a table and expect them to mix and when
we have someone controlling it, That is God and when He is ready (snap)
bang. It is so much fun and he accepted
to get baptized this October
The other is Omar 2:
Yep. He is a 19 year old
kid and he says that he is a hipster and it is so funny but he is just so ready
to listen to the gospel and is so open to new Ideas, he’s pretty cool.
And last but not least is Maricio:
He is a little old man. One
day this week we contacted him and he was like yeah I love learning about religions,
come by and we can talk, and were like, yeah okay. We went in planning on talking about the restoration,
but he was doing all the teaching. Like
he was talking about how it’s hard that we are away from home but that it is a
great learning experience and he told me that I have a strong personality I
don’t show it but from the inside it’s a strong one and just gave us a lot of
grandpa advice and let us tie it into the gospel and it was so cool and he
is a great guy.
That’s really all I have
today.
Love you
