Every Word Counts

Okay, so this week was pretty lit. We went and played American football with one of the recent converts in the ward, haven't done that in a minute. We did a ton of exchanges. I had one with Elder Maile freaking love this dude but no one tell him that he'll get too prideful, trying to get him to pull up to BYU. He's from New Zealand, served in Australia for a minute knows a couple of the people that I know, small world. We got to Invite our friend to be baptized and he's getting baptized next month. pray for Gonzalo literally chillest old guy ever, we met him in the hospital one day and he was put into the hospital to have a operation, and his brother that lives in Utah called us up and told us to head over and give him a blessing before the operation even though he's not a member. So we went over to give him the blessing. As we go in we find his bed but he's not there all the sudden we find this guy buying himself a soda at a soda mission all tranquilo and calm acting like nothing is going on. Told us he would be happy to receive the blessing but that he is catholic through and through. We gave him the blessing, the spirit was crazy strong and really softened his heart. The operation went well and now he's getting ready to be baptized. Anyways he's lit. Then had exchanges with elder Ence another goat, it's lit cause our zone has a ton of hard working, lit people so it just makes missionary work even more fun. We talked to a lot of people though and visited some members. Went to Alfredo and Carmens and they fed us some gas arepas. And a Maria cookie tarta, if anyone knows what those are. Vania and Sofia made us the best flan I've ever had in my life. Right now her husband is going through a hard time with his testimony so please pray for him. 

Lesson I learned this week: the words we say are important. Every word counts.

Love y'all!!
