So I found out that I can fall asleep standing! =/ May 29, 2017




Alright! so another week! I need to start writing these things down because I don't ever remember what happens! we walk a whole lot, but that's not new haha. I've been reading the book of Mormon in Spanish and translating it into English as I read it. it really helps with learning the language. I think I've shared with you guys that we are trying to share at least 30 books of Mormon each week. I feel that we are having a lot of success and we are gaining new investigators daily. everyone is super receptive to what we have to say! I made a goal to talk to the biggest scariest guy on the bus (only on the bus, i'm not trying to get shanked on the middle of a dimly lit street.) and it turns out they are some of the nicest people out here. they love hearing more and a lot of the times they have family's and they want to know more so I end up sharing the plan of salvation and we end up becoming friends. they  don't always accept but I know I have friends I can call in case someone wants to throw down on a dark ally. 

lets see, a lot of funny things happen too. for example last night we were on our way home after a very long day! we got on the bus and we shared our message with every one on this VERY CROWDED bus. so after we share our message my companion and I are standing there and my eyes start to get heavy. and I'm like no I can a do this. we have 10 minutes then were home. I can make it. long story short........ I didn't make it. so as I'm standing there, asleep, the bus driver decides  it a great idea to do a break check and I flew like 6 feet forward managing to dodge every person in my path of destruction. and I made this weird WHOA sound ( think R2-D2 from Star Wars) if you aren't sure what that is, look it up. I'm sure the words R2-D2 scream will bring it up. lucky I'm able to laugh at my self so that made it better lol. 

sorry my message isn't very long! we don't have a lot of time this week! still no pictures but I promise one day I will send them! 

LOVE YOU ALL!
