This week was pretty good. Tuesday we went to the branch presidents house for dinner. He asked me to give a talk Sunday. So Sunday I gave a talk on the gospel of Jesus Christ. Giving a talk in sacrament meeting is always scary but when it's in a language that you're not fluent in it's a little more scary. But it turned out all right.
Thursday we met Jose. He is cool. We just knocked on his door and invited us in and gave us Gatorade. We had a good lesson with him. He then he gave us a $40 gift card to the restaurant that he works at!
Then Saturday we went to see an investigator Edwin. His wife Rosa was outside cooking some authentic food from El Salvador. She fed us the amazing food while we talked to them. It was really funny because Rosa had heard some thing about the church that aren't any where true. So she went inside and got her Bible ready to bash us. She came out and asked us a few questions about the Holy Ghost, Jesus,and Heavenly Father. She was really confused because she didn't think Mormons believed in the Holy Ghost or that God is our father but we do. Edwin knew we did so he was pretty much teaching her it was cool. They then asked well what the difference between our church and yours. After teaching this they said that it came down to. Coffee, dancing (it's apparently a sin to dance in their church), and prophets. Then about an hour and a half later we had dinner with a member who fed us a ton. Then an hour after that we went to go contact a referral and they were having a big fiesta and invited us to eat. We were really full that day.
¡Espero que tengas una buena semana! Gracias para toda que has hecho para mí! Te amo!
