Another Day in Paraguay!!

Hey guys, so the mission is the mission. This week we were able to see some awesome miracles. But the cool experience that I wanted to share with you guys this week is about a lady. She was a reference that we received from the general offices of the church this week. She went looking for the church website because she wanted the elders to come to her house. She lives literally in the limit of our area and the reason why those elders never could pass by her house is because they can't cross over their limits. So we called her up and she told us to come over. We went to her house and she had so many different questions. We didn't have much time to teach her but we gave her a Book of Mormon and explained why it was important and invited her to read it. We also explained a little bit about the restoration. So we left her with the Book of Mormon on Thursday and we came back to her house Saturday. She had read up to the 4th or 5th chapter in first Nephi. She said that if she finds out it is true she will be baptized. She is different than any other investigator that I have ever taught. She is so prepared. She said that she wants to know more because of some of her friends who are members. She said that we are the only church that she has seen that say and do the things they say. She seems pretty interested. She didn't come to church this week but we will be going to visit her again on Wednesday.

Transfers are in one week. I love this ward and I don't want to leave but a transfer will help me keep my mind off things. I really do what ever thing I can to keep my mind here in the mission. This week we could see this because we had 5 investigators come to church. 9 lessons with members and 19 other lessons this week. that leads to about 4 lessons a day this week. Not too bad. We have 4 with baptismal dates and 
we´re trying to find more people. We´re working. I told my companion that the only way we would be happy this week is if we got to work. So we did. 

Nothing is really new. Its hard being here. I love being in the mission. I'm here and this is my life now. I am actually dreading the day that I have to come home and face the reality that faces me there.  So I'm good. I really was able to see a whole lot of miracles this week. I didn't have time to think about anything else but the mission. 
Sorry my letters are so short. love you guys tons,

This is what it looks like after just 2 minutes of rain!
This was conference day waiting for the bus. These are the rocks that I walk every
single day. All of the roads are like this and by the end of the day.......my feet kill!


This was yesterday proselyting in a little park in the area.

 She is 12 years old and we are teaching her and her sister, and her brother. She loves to read the
 Book of Mormon. This is where we taught her, in the Young Women's room.
