So we were walking back to the pench on sunday night when I was in a threesome with the other elders in the pench since my companion had just gone to the offices to go home. Right before we take out the keys a guy comes around the corner asking us if we can help him out with a little money. I didnt have anything on me, neither did elder motta. and the other elder was new so he didnt understand what was going on. he then started to say how he always saw us come here and knew we lived there, we dont him we didnt saying we always visited members from the church that live here. so we said we would ask them"the members" if they had anything to give him and then he hiding around the corner. We pretended to contact the house and waited, meanwhile we hid our keys to the place, in case they took them from us and saw that he had left supposedly and we left to go to a members house that lives two blocks away from our pench. We start walking and he finds us again, we would have just kept walking but he had two other friends their one hiding in the shadows, we didnt know if he had a weapon so we stopped and the elder that didnt understand much, we told him before the guy came back that he was asking for money, and the elder turns out had five pesos. so when he found us again we gave him the five pesos and he told us he would wait for us to go get more. So we went to the members house and told him what happened. We called the asistents and waited in his house for a while and then he drove us back in his car to see if they were still there. They had left so we found our keys and went in and lock the doors. Thats about it, they never came back. It wasnt really that bad.
¡Hola Todos!
It was a good week! I always say that, but every week as a missionary is a great week no matter what happens! Gustavo is progressing well, hes on his high as a recent convert, loves everything. The other day we visited him and his neighbor was there so we taught him as well! Turns out he was recently separated from his wife and stopped going to his church because thats where is exwife goes still. He had a lot of good questions and opened up quickly to us. We felt to share the Plan of Salvation, even though we normally start with the Restoration, based on his questions and needs. He really liked it and we plan on going back today in the afternoon so we´ll see how it goes.
Our area continues a little slow but its helping us grow. The Lord hastens his work we´re just the ones that needs to make sure we all always doing our best, being obedient, and keeping the spirits up!
Love you all!
