Yes i got the package thank you so much i have it next to me
now. We just got back from the temple today is a temple p day so that is why it
is on Tuesday. i got the debit card and awesome i got 200 bucks. i might use
that today to get the hair cutters if i have time. I think that 700 will be
enough for my entire mission.This week has been simply amazing there are no
words to describe how great this week went. We as a zone decided to pray by
name for each other everyday and we have seen the benefits. All of us got 5 new
investigators and all of our Key indicators( Lessons with a member present,
Other lessons, New investigators, Baptismal dates.) doubled. Marcio is doing
awesome he really wants to be baptized he is super solid he was even
fellowshiping another elders investigator during church. He is awesome.
Unfortunately he leaves next month he will still be baptized here but he will
be going home to Brazil soon after.but the good thing is that he is really
excited about sharing the gospel with his family. Also Cholie our investigator
agreed to be baptized. The date is set for April 25. We are really excited for
her. Things has just been falling into place. We all know it is because
heavenly father has really blessed us. Also I had an experiance with an Anti
that was really interesting. I was on tradeoffs with elder Ostler from
utah and we pass by a whole bunch of them preaching and not doing so well. we
talk to one of them a guy just to be nice to show that we can all be friends
then his wife walks over and he moves back. She starts Anti-ing us. She was in
her 50s and has studied the bible alot. She started quoting scripture to us
trying to trick us into saying something wrong. But the spirit was with us we
stayed calm and did not get angry and we did not do it just to make her mad but
to bring her to the truth. We answered all her questions and we were not
confounded once we did not even stummer. we both said things we did not know we
knew. She was confounded alot we asked her many times to bear her testimony
about her church and she would not. every time we asked she would just say
"I got the bible" She could not answer any of our questions she would
alwase change the subject so at the end we said. "you are alot older then
us and have alot more experience in religion.We both have gotten trained for
only 2 weeks. We are only 18 and we have answered all your questions and have
not stummered once" Then we both bore testimony about The Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter Day Saints. then we left. She meant well but was just to close
minded to listen to the spirit it is saddening that she will not hearken to the
word of the lord .The church is true.
