Early morning soccer, and gun shot!

Early morning soccer


Howdy,

   This week was full of stories. jajaja everything from soccer at 3am, bullets, progress and rain.

   That sounds a little bit more interesting than it really is. But it has been raining a lot here which is great. It makes it a lot less hot.

    Soccer at 3 is a pretty dope story though. We had to take to sisters to the terminal where the bus leaves to go to Asuncion and the only bus left at 2:30 in the morning.  Santaní is a little bit dangerous at 2:30 in the morning so we needed to accompany them to the terminal so that they wouldn't get robbed or something. We decided to call up the other elders here in the city and invite them to play some soccer after the sisters were safely on the bus. To my surprise they came and we played soccer until 5 in the morning. it was super fun and an experience that I wont forget.

   This Saturday we decided to go by and visit an investigator who has tons of potential to progress and eventually be baptized. So we stopped by his house to invite him to come to church with us on Sunday. jaja  He told us that he wouldn't be able to because he accidentally shot himself in the arm and he needed to go have surgery on Sunday. Who shoots themselves in the arm?

    We gave him a priesthood blessing to comfort him and let him know that he would be alright. I think he was a little bit weirded out because that was the first blessing he had seen or received in his life. Afterward he told us that he had felt something pass through him. I would assume that would be the Spirit.  : )

    The work here is moving along. Not too many investigators progressing but we did have 3 less actives come to church yesterday which was fantastic. 

    Oh and we have changes tomorrow but i don't suspect that i will receive changes. But that's about it for this week. I love you all and hope you have a great week.
 
Love Jeffrey
