Hey hey hey everyone!!!
Here’s your friendly neighborhood half Chilean
missionary reporting in! This week has been filled with nothing but hard work.
But then again, is anything less expected? I’ve taken really seriously the role
of trainer so I’m trying to be the best example I can be.
In Preach My Gospel, the guide that we have as
missionaries, it says that we should talk with everyone, and so we literally
talk with EVERYONE. It’s a lot of fun! And when the people don’t want to talk
we just say, "have a nice day!" It’s really funny to see the
reactions of the people. Some are really nice, others look scared, others look
suspicious at us. Yesterday we were knocking on a door and while the man opened
the door he looked at us for one second and said "OH NO!!!" and
closed the door as fast as he had opened it. Elder Ferreira and I burst out
laughing! The mission is always a lot better when you look on the bright side.
We have one investigator that is going to be
baptized on the 12th!!! Her name is Magali. She’s an older lady who we found knocking
doors. She told us that all her life she had listened to just about every
religion, but not ours! She went to church and she loved it! We're going to try
and start teaching the rest of her family as well.
The other day I had to go to another sector that
was more affluent, just for the day. It was just like the United States. I
honestly felt uncomfortable with all the space that there was. I was really
happy to get back to my compact area. I love it here soooooo much!!!
I know that this is the work of the Lord. If it
were not, I wouldn’t been giving of my time to spread it. May God bless you
all, and sorry for the short email. You all are the best!!
Love you all!
Elder Pomar
