So the Highlight of this week was that we found this new
family of venezuelans and one of the ladies in the fam is amazing! Her name is
Genesis. she is about 25 and lives with her boyfriend and his family. we left
her the first pamphlet, the Restoration, and she read it all, and understood it
all! she explained everything perfectly to us! even the Aaronic and Melchizedek
Priesthood, which blew us away! then we left her the Book of Mormon, with the
invitation to read the introduction, and when we came back, she had read the
first 5 chapters! she explained everything to us again! the family of Lehi,
that they had left Jerusalem, and had to get the brass plates, talked about
Laban and everything! then she said her favorite part of what she had read was
1 nefi 3:7!!! scripture mastery!!! We all thought she was pulling our leg and
that she was already a member! it was amazing how well she understood! but she
is not! she is just searching for the truth and now she has found it, we have
plans to teach the gospel this next time and talk about baptism, super huge
miracle!
we have been busy with interviews, trainings and things to
do with people getting married. but we did also manage to have a little fun
this p day, Elder Carrillo and I organized a soccer activity with president's
permission and attendance, so we went to this nice park where they practiced
for the olympics when they were here and played on this field, 11 on 11
soccer!!! super fun time!!! i hadn't played soccer like that for a while! i
felt like i was playing at a college stadium during president's cup, super
cool! we took a cool pic in the stands, ill be sure to send that as well! I of
course wore my Mexican Soccer Jersey, hahaha! Viva Mexico!!!! ;)
apart from that, not much to say about the week, just weird
to think that now i have less than 4 months in the mission! I'll try not to
think about it too much, if I do, it will go way too slow!!! hahaha
transfers are coming up this week, it will be fun to see
what happens! I think I am going to be heading to my last area in the
mission!!! crazy, so ill keep you updated next week on what happens!
love you all tons! hope you have a good week!
ELDER AUGER

for those of you that
speak spanish, the picture of the car is a good example of the dominican accent
and spelling!!! hahahaha :)
