We´ve had an interesting week. We woke up in the middle of the night on Tuesday to travel the 3 hours to Nanuque for our zone meeting, then travel back again after. Wednesday, we helped out at a service project for some inactive members where your´s truly ever so gracefully sprained his ankle. That kept us in house arrest for the rest of the day, and the work went...slowly until I fully recovered yesterday. However, one of the inactives came back to church yesterday, so it was all worth it!
Later in the week, as we were walking to an appointment, we passed by a man sitting on the street curb who appeared to be pretty worn out and tired. As we passed, he asked us, ``Where can I find a church here?´´ We decided to take advantage of the situation and jump right into teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He told us that he´ll be here in the city for about 6 months working on a home reformation, and that was why he was so tired. He humbly stated that the work was hard, and that he was far from his wife and son (he´s legally married!!!). He invited us to see the house he was working on, and it was easy to see that there was much to be done. He accepted both an invitation to church and for baptism, and thanked us for stopping by.
That seems to be the most of the news for this week. We´re hoping for a more eventful, and less painful work week. :) Love you all and see you soon!
