We had a good week down here. We found a lot of new investigators this week so that was great! The sector was pretty much dead when I got here. But now we have found some more people to work with! So we are excited. We just have to get the help of the people in the ward, and we will just be dandy!
Conference was great! I got a bunch of notes! All of the gringos watched it upstairs in English. So we were all eating snacks while we were watching! haha But I loved it! We had an investigator go and it was her first one and she loved it to! We are going to baptize her this weekend. But she is going to get baptized in Curico because that is where she has been going to church.
I liked the one talk from the second counselor in the Sunday School presidency. He talked about how we need to fix the way we teach so that the Spirit can teach through us. It was great, it is the one thing we are always trying to work on here. We are always trying to become more efficient in our teaching with the Spirit. We teach investigators not lessons is the saying! But it goes along with any calling in the church. We have learned that it is the Spirit who teaches not us. And it is the Spirit that converts the member or the investigator. It was an awesome talk.
This week we were contacting in this apartment complex area. And we walked by some steps to go up and there was a dog under them barking at us. So we had to jump up the steps so it couldn’t bite our feet! Then we ran up and the dog ran up and I slammed the gate shut! haha it was way close! Then we walked up and found out that it was the wrong stairs! haha so we knocked anyways and they didn’t listen. Then I asked the lady to help us with the dog and she walked down and we walked. Then we went to the next steps, and knocked and we talked to the lady we needed to talk to, then we looked and saw that the dog was sleeping, and we walked down with an eye on the dog, then it woke up! haha So I started to run! haha and the dog started chasing us and barking and I was like uh oh! Its Kobe time! but the dog stopped! it was crazy! I know without a doubt that the Lord was watching over us two missionaries that day.
Today for P Day we cleaned the house a little bit, then we went and took our suits to get dry cleaned, then we played soccer with our district, then we went to McDonalds! haha I ate a Big Mac, then we came here to internet, we still gotta go buy food for the week! It has been a fun P Day!
But I’m looking forward to this week. We really gotta find and focus on the people that want to listen to us and follow the example of Jesus Christ. It’s gonna be a great week here in Cancha Rayada Talca!
les quiero,
Elder Johnson
