this week was really good. i really like my companion. we worked really hard this week. the mission had a goal to get into 25 houses this week, which when they first told us was a little hard to believe because it is usually pretty hard to get into someones house, street contacts are usually pretty easy and i can do them pretty well, but door contacts i really havent done as much in my mission. but this week was awesome we found so many great people. there were several people that just let us in right away it was awesome. we came into sunday with 17 needing 8 more, but we did it, it was such a miracle. my companion is from Minnesota but he is a really good missionary and likes to work which is always awesome. it is starting winter here so it is starting to rain, but not to bad yet. they say that usually by this time of year it is pouring rain but luckily it hasn't rained to bad yet. it was also funny this sunday we were on a bus to church and as we were getting of the bus my companion askes this drunk guy who was on the bus if he wanted to come with us, it was really funny he got off he sat through the whole first part of sacrament meeting but then left half way through. it was funny but it made me think as well. a lot of times as missionaries we only focusing on the people that are ready that are golden. but everyone needs the gospel not just the people that dont have problems, or are easy. we shouldnt judge anyone, Heavenly Father loves a homeless man just as much as me, his soul is just as valuable, he has the same potential as me. i remember in my first sector my trainer showed me this older video about this violen that is made and is brand new and is sold for a ton of money. but then this punk kid gets it and messes it up drops it and breaks some of the strings, and then sells it and it goes on like this and gets keep getting badly treated and sold to another trainer. finally there is this auction and only one person bids 5 dollars for it. then the maker of the violen comes and cleans it fixes teh strings tunes it and plays a great song with it.. after the violen is sold for thousands of dollars. the related the story to people there are some people who have had really hard lives and have faced some really real trials. so it was a good experience for me, i learned a lot. this week was awesome, and i expect to keep having a great cambio. love you all, thanks for all you do.
