It was another crazy week with the World Cup!

It was a really good week!  It was another crazy week with the world cup.  It´s really interesting because we are walking in the streeets and there is NOBODY.  And all of a sudden, you can just hear screams at the exact same time from EVERY house.  All the families are just huddled up inside around the tv with a bunch of blue and white make up!  It´s absolutely the best, I absolutely love it.  The only downside was that yesterday, nobody talked to us after the game because everyone fell into a small depresion. But as for the work, it was and awesome week!

Nilda and Oscar are still the best and they are learning so much everyday.  They absolutely love us and they talk about us like we are their little angels.  It´s really cute because Oscar is 67 years old, but gets really emotional when he talks about the answers that he has received in the last little bit.  It´s the best!

Last monday, we were walking in the street and all of our plans fell through.  (shocker), but then Hermana Boyce says, "we should go visit Gisela."  Bueno, we listened and went.  She is a less active member with a huge testimony!  We show up and start talking to her.  She has a friend so we feel a little bad that she has company and we could tell that he´s a little shy.  But then, he starts asking us a bunch of questions and we start teaching him.  He´s 24 years old and was involved with a lot of things.  He´s just trying to change his life and he feels so good with us.  The elders were teaching him 3 years ago, but then he left on vacations and never saw them again.  Seriously, it´s really interesting that we are where God wants us to be.  I love that part of the work because it really does CHANGE LIVES!  Anyway, we headed to the church, and he was already there!  (that doesn´t happen much)  Every 20 seconds he said, "Wow, I absolutely love this.  I feel so good here."  

This is the best part about missionary work.  It´s being able to be an instrument and know that what you are doing is correct.  It´s a time in my life that I will never be able to repeat so we are trying to live up every second!  Man, we absolutely love it.  The church is true I have absolutely no doubts about it!

Love and miss you all!
