My new companion is the coolest dude ever and the tallest dude ever, well out of all the missionaries in the mission. Really it's a blast working with him. He really has a love for the work and gets me excited to go and teach every day.
This week we've really been trying to find new investigators that we can work with this transfer. On Wednesday we decided to "knock some doors". Since were in Argentina we get to clap our hands. We clapped at one house and a lady came out. We talked for a couple minutes and she accepted us in her house, but her husband wasn't there so we planned an appointment for the next day. When we showed up the next day she wasn't there, but her husband was. She hadn't told him anything about us, but he accepted us in the house too. As we sat down to teach his wife, Cintia, showed up with their daughter. We were able to teach The Restoration to the whole family. It was one of the most powerful lessons that I've ever been in. The dad started to tear up after the closing prayer, and they are going to read El Libro De Mormon as a family and pray. Then yesterday they came to church with us. It really strengthened my testimony that The Lord is putting those ready to recieve the gospel in our path. It's super cool how The Lord can change our hearts. I feel like I've changed so much this week. Like I've found a new love for the people of Argentina, the mission, and the Savior.
Catch you guys next week!
