Things are really good! That said, no idea what to share.
This week I`ve been studying the Restoration and the Plan of Salvation in Spanish and my major impression has been the magnificence of the constancy of the restored gospel. True doctrine is true in any language and regardless of the missionary teaching or the person being taught. People say stuff sometimes like ``Well that`s just not ME.`` Which just is never true. Different people are prepared to receive the gospel at different times, but the truthfulness does not depend on the preparedness of the receiver. If that sentence makes any sense at all. Feel free to disregard things I say that don`t make sense.
We have a new investigator this week who speaks un peu de Francais, but whose first language is Portuguese (miracle, we had a Portuguese Book of Mormon in the apartment that we had noticed the day before and kind of been like, haha, now we`re set for when we start teaching the throngs of Brazilians we see every day) and we found out that we both totally understand Portuguese so that`s made us feel cool. We taught using mostly pictures, and it was really cool when we had her read a few verses from the Book of Mormon and she was just so grateful. Turns out, the human population in general is much more humble than I am.
We got to teach with President Phillips' wife this week! She came out with us and for our first lesson, the woman didn't show up so we went contacting with Sister Phillips and it was awesome. People ask us a lot if we're nuns, and this time they thought that she was our Mother Superior.
Ummmm I'm sure other things happened but I think that's all the typing I've got in me for today. I really love you all!
Souvenez-vous qui vous êtes ♥
Oh yeah, and I can participate sometimes in Spanish lessons. The gift of tongues is real.
