Volleyball by the beach this pdayy. We decided to just walk along the beach from our house in order to get to the park where the elders were all going to meet. The beach here makes me baggy bc it's all rocky like cali and I tried so hard not to get wet but the water came up and got me #aintnobodygottimefodat so ive officially had my toesies in the carribean!

"And when he falls he shall rise again, for his sacrifice shall be more sacred unto me than his increase" D&C 117:13
today fue meh. I still feel kind of disoriented here. We had the best pastelitos de pollo and the most disappointing topogigios.

Jueves 7 de abril:
"El Hijo del Hombre ha descendido debajo de todo ello ¿Eres tú major que él? 
Today I had the most exhausting lesson of my life. I was getting so annoyed but my comp was so cool she's awesome like seriously I was starting to get so sassy but it's just that this guy would not shut up he was just ranting. And always interrupting very rudely.
All the things he was saying were things we already knew because they're in the bible and we've read the bible. 
But we're trying to tell him about something he didn't know and he wouldnt let us.
He said that the bible doesn't say that we should have prophets and apostles today. He also condemned me for using makeup and wearing earrings. 
At the end we talked to him about the Book of Mormon and he said
"wow, Jesus never told me he had another testament!" 
if he studies the Book of Mormon as much as the bible he could learn and understand so much. I hope he does.

Viernes 8 de Abril
we started the day off contacting our neighbors and they said we are so much nicer than the other missionaries that have lived here. So that was pretty cool.
We only got 1 lesson out of it though before we went to interviews with Pres Klein.
It was super short, 15 min but it helped a lot.

Sábado 9 de Abril 
Today we contacted in barrio Ingles, en el callejón Nueva York.
Things are really turning around here and im so excited! the number of people preparing for baptism and the number of people progressing and the number of new people we've found has doubled since I got here.  yeah!



Domingo 10 de Abril:
Our chapel is gorgeous! and we had 3 investigators come to church! hopefully more next week.
I taught the gospel principles class about Faith in jesus christ and I highly suggest studying
Hebrews 11, it has so many great examples of faith. And I finished the class explaining that although we all have faith in christ, he has faith in us too, that we can accomplish any needful thing. That we can, even in this mortal life, discover our divine potential. My favorite part about teaching to be honest is asking questions, because when people open up and share their experiences, it's amazing.
I literally have soooo many experiences to tell but I have no time :( but this was me trying to catch up on my posts sorrrryyyy
