Word of Wisdom at 10:15pm

So with the Olympics going on and such, I get to hear here and there about what´s going on. Heard all about Michael Phelps and his record breaking, and apparently New Zealand got slaughtered in soccer, which I heard about from a member in my ward who heard that Dad hails from that country.

This week, more snags as far as the word of wisdom goes. It´s funny, but basically everybody that we teach accepts everything until you get the coffee. I´d say with the vast majority of our investigators, the problems are the coffee, and getting up on time to go to church.

So yesterday we had a visit from the Zone Leaders, (Thanks grandma and grandpa for the letter! The Zone Leaders deliver them when they visit.) so I got to work with Elder F. Santos from the other area. He´s from Salvador, and a good guy, the only problem is that his accent and the way he speaks is a little hard for me to understand. I seriously haven´t had such a problem understanding someone since my first transfer with my trainer. But it went well and we managed to give a good lesson on the word of wisdom to Marribe and Nurian. Marribe is the one that already received an answer from her reading, but Nurian had some trouble accepting the part about the coffee. The cool part was that Marribe told Nurian how she got her own response/confirmation, which I thinked helped her a lot. I think that with her already having gotten a response, her testimony that she just barely received will help Nurian.

The only bad part of the night was that we missed our bus back to our house, and had to wait for the next one to pass. Arriving back in the house at 10:15 pm when the ZL´s come to town? Not the best thing to do…ha ha.

Well, that´s what I got time for this week. I gotta go mail some letters.

As always, hasta la vista until next time.

Excelcior!
