Well first off sorry for the whole not writing thing this morning, we have been at immigrations all day which is a nightmare really. And then I have to be back there tomorrow at 6 am. Which means ill be up at 4.... Right after one of the most tiring weeks so far. So that whole no sleep deal you were talking about I know how you feel!!
Thats too bad about Bennetts sister, but at the same time I`m sure it was nice to see them!! Tell them hi for me and I wish them the best in their last month!! This week also was difficult because a lot of investigators we had we dropped them. One thing with the people here is that you have to be very direct. Its not like the US where if your direct the people hate you. The people here are humble enough to take and it really is the only way to be with them most of the time. For example this week I had a lesson with the two brothers that are in there twenties and they just kept telling me in specific because I was the one who promised them they would know that the Book of Mormon was true and they told me they hadnt felt anything. So I then asked after reading with us the first time how many times have you read? he replied 0. I let it be silent for like 10 seconds. After I asked how many times have you come to church?. He replied zero. I let it be silent again. I told him that really he hadnt followed the invitation of Moroni and because it says if you sincerely want to know you would read it more than once you would put it to the test and come to church. This is the most frustrating part of the mission I think. Things like this. and to be honest it happens quite a bit. I also taught Jehovas witnesses and had a little fun there it ended up with him giving me six pages of notes from the bible and a pocket New Testament, so you could tell that was effective.
P.S. camera cord is not working again. ill have to buy one next week but ill get it done im good and getting fat so talk to you guys in a week itll go by fast!!!! love you!!!
