I hate this computer. I was writing a really good e-mail, and the whole thing just shut down. So, now you guys get to have the watered-down version. Sorry.
So it´s been raining for almost a week now. And raining hard. But, we´ve amazingly been able to teach a lot of lessons. It´s almost impossible to get into people´s houses in the rain, as most people aren´t even willing to come to the gate to talk to you, but we´ve had some success surprisingly.
On Friday, we were walking around in the rain when we passed a house with a Ford inside the gate. On the car were a bunch of stickers that said stuff like “Smith Bros. Roping Supplies-Texas” and others with a “Don´t Mess with Texas” saying on it. Me and Elder W. got a little curious, wondering if maybe some guy from Texas happened to live there. Anyway, we knocked on the door, but of course in the rain nobody came to the door. We kind of forgot about the house, and went on to others. About an hour later on the way back, it had stopped raining and we were heading back when we passed the same house. We decided to just try knocking again, and somebody actually came to the door. Long-story short, it wasn´t a guy from Texas, he just liked Texas a lot, but we found a family that seems to just have been waiting to receive the gospel in their lives. A guy named Vin... (24), his Mom, and his sister Ev... (19) all were very receptive and Ev... went to church this week and has a date marked for this Halloween. Vin... can´t go for now, as he has to stay in bed for a month or so. I guess he was taking a shower last month, when his bathroom floor just caved in and he sliced his Achilles tendon open, and has to stay in bed for another month or so. He said that he´s excited to read the Book of Mormon as he doesn´t have anything else to do. It´s funny, but I really think that the Lord inspired Vin... to put those stickers on his car to grab the attention of two American missionaries.
Our recent convert family, Ju... and Ro... are doing really well. Ju... got ordained a Priest yesterday, and he had a bunch of questions about it. The Branch Pres. asked him to bless the sacrament next week, so we got to help him out with the prayers.
I think that´s all from me for now. I don´t have any patience to write anymore after my big e-mail closed up.
´till next week, which will be the last one, I think?
