Hola Familia!
Well, I don't have changes. Like Dad said, the Lord knows why. But really i am shocked cause i will yet again have 7 and a half months in both my areas. I will have 2 areas in 15 months! Crazy.
Well this week was good, crazy fast as usual. Lolita is so stinkin bipolar I dont even know. We went to visit her on Thursday and she started by telling us that she didn't wanna get baptized cause it's a pecado. And then after explaining to her why she needs to be baptized and telling her its not a pecado using Doctrine and Covenants, she resulted in saying that she will be baptized, so we put the fecha for the 25th of November, then she brought out a white dress and told us that this is her baptism dress. She came to church with us yesterday too. Then we went and visited her yesterday and she said that she can't get baptized, the same thing always happens but by the end of the lesson she is ready to be baptized again.
Well we had contacted a family this week that is super nice. It's a dad and his little hijo and his girlfriend that all live together. We had the second appointment with them Friday and when we knocked a drunk old man answered the door. He let us in then we started talking to Karen and he went and laid on the bed. So we started teaching her and as soon as we said Thomas S Monson, he comes in the room and starts talking about how he is an educated man of the bible and he believes in God and only God and blah blah. Then he leaves the room and comes back with a BOM, I was shocked, but then I open the book and out falls pictures of his baptism!!!!!! Turns out he was baptized last July with some hermanas. It was crazy! We were soooo shocked. Then he just keeps talking and starts to say that he doesnt believe in prohpets and we worship Jose Smith and a whollleee lot of junk and HR and I were just like alright pal enough. So we tell him that we came to talk to Karen and we will come back another day to talk to him. But he keeps talking. Eventually we decide to just keep talking to Karen while he talks. So we do and we start teaching about Jose Smith and the first vision and the Spirit was soooooo strong and as soon as we finish, the drunk guy goes and opens the door. We both thought, YES he's leaving! But then he just opens the door and holds it open and says, this is my house, I dont want any of this here, que les vaya bien. And he kicked us out. So we left. The good news is the family came to church yesterday and they are super cute. I just remember like they said in conference that Joseph Smith's name will be known every where for the good and the bad. It's so true and sad but awesome. But moral of the story is I've been kicked out of houses 3 times for preaching the gospel. Waddup waddup feeling like a thug. Only once with gun.
I think thats all for this week. Love you all lots, thanks for everything yall do. LA MEJOR FAMILIA EN EL MUNDO!
Love, Kelci
