Email: Week#40 in Paraguay

Hi,

We haven't had much success with Adan this week, but we talked to the Sanchez family again. The dad wants to start coming back now. He realized how much better his life was when he was going to church, but now the thing is that we just need them to get to coming to church! But we are trying to start working with the youth to befriend the young kids to help them want to come... but the key is really the Dad, Valentin.

So something else super awesome is that we were talking with a less active, Everisto, and then his nephew came over to his house. We talked to him and set a visit with him later. In the lesson last week we found out that he wants to get baptized! So the next visit tomorrow we are going to put a baptismal date and see how that goes. But he is super ready and I am super glad that we were able to find him!

So something weird that happened this week was on Wednesday. We found this family contacting and asked if they were members because they knew a lot of stuff and they said no that they never were baptized. Then, the next visit we challenged them to be baptized and they said they never were! It was kinda awkward afterwards... but basically no one knows them so we are a bit suspicious because we haven't found their records.

We also found someone super awesome this week. His name is Wilson. We found him contacting and he then just invited us to sit down so we talked and taught him a bit and he has desires to learn more... just that he works a LOT and isn't home very often.

And also on Sunday we did visits with the ward, and that was super cool. This ward is really cool, like once a month they all gather together and do visits together and see all the less actives.

AND YES I GOT MY PACKAGE! Thank you so much for that! It was super awesome.
