"You Only Know You Love them When You Let Them Go"

 Elder Shill and I literally got friend zoned on the mission, at least that's what it felt like. All thanks to David. 

 If you don't know who David is, here's. Little background. He's one of the 4 active members here in Las Varillas. His mom died about 10 years ago, which caused his life to turn around 180°. Dad did some bad stuff, sisters left the church, family didn't want to see one another. Let's just sum it all up as, inside He's really depressed Physically, emotionally, and intelligently, but outside, like a 36 year old Jokester(I think). He's the only person that helps the missionarys with their friends and tasks. Without him, the Branch would not exist. But his favorite thing if the world is to help the missionarys.


But this past week, he was letting his depression show. Not energetic, easly agrovated, and really annoyed at everything we would do. And you could see the pain and tiredness in his soul. Everytime we got in his car, he wouldn't let us talk to him. One day he finally burst, and this is what he told us "last week after church, when you decided to go home with someone else instead of me, it ripped me in half. I couldn't believe that you guys rode with somebody else, when I was really looking forward to taking you home. This expirience shouldn't have shaken me so much, because of it I realized that I love you guys to much. So this past week I've been trying to break off our relationship. Sorry but I can't help you guys that much anymore."

Elder Shill and I were shaken. He loved us so much that he had to let us go. Elder Shill and I that night started praying for a miracle, that he would have the desire to keep working with us. God heard our prayers, and he is helping us a lot more. David is the best!

Miracles

Spiritual Thought
Alma 36:3
And now, O my son/Daughter (your name), behold, thou art in thy youth, and therefore, I beseech of thee that thou wilt hear my words and learn of me; for I do know that whosoever shall put their trust in God shall be supported in their trials, and their troubles, and their afflictions, and shall be lifted up at the last day.

Put your trust in him, And all will be OK!


Weeks tend to fly by really fast! I can't believe that another week is over. Anyways, I hope you all have a great week, I love you all, may God bless you always. Here's my missionary email

  How is everyone doing? What's good over there in your neighborhood! I hope you did something enjoyable! This week was 100% different from the week before, and it's not in a bad way. All thanks to my companion, Elder Barrientos. Elder Barrientos How do I explain my comp... Just picture my best friend The baked bean (Matthew Bernal)before his mission, but just short. For others who don't know who the GOAT, the Baked Bean is, it's ok. Instead of explaining him like the Baked Bean, I will explain him differently. He is super Haz, super funny, always quoting memes, and always looking for a good time.        He has about 3 months left in the mission, so he is a little trunky, but im keeping him in check!    The reason why it is all super different is because he is from the city, And im from the farm. He has spent his entire mission in Córdoba capital. I have spent my entire mission in pueblitos outside of Córdoba Capital. Which working in the 2 are complet...

Witches, Dark Spirits and Jesus's Girlfriend

Image
  This week was full of surprises! We ran into some witches, dark Spirits, and even the girlfriend of Jesuschrist!  Witches We're teaching this family right now of witches! We passed by with David (overpowered member) to see if these people have interest. During the lesson, David whispered to us that they are a family full of witches! We were a little confused, because David has nevr met this family in his life! We shrugged that phrase off and scheduled another appointment! The next time we passed, she asked us to see her magic broomstick!!! She was also cooking up some stew, that was literally neon green, and smoking! Definently a Witch, David was right. Dark Spirit We were walking one day, and we knocked this door, that was hidden behind a few houses. A girl answered, and told us to come inside instantly and help her! We passed, and sat down with her and her husband! The first thing she said was "let me tell you about my husband" she then started blabbing, about all the...

Sleepy Times!

  Buen Día! How are all of you people? I hope your all doing well. This week was pretty exciting. Had a lot of things happen that made me find a lot of joy in doing this work. This week we invited everyone to baptism sin miedo (without fear). Because of this we saw the fruits of invitations. We put 7 fechas this week. 6 for the 23rd, and 1 for the 2nd. But sadly everybody is unperfect. Only 3 of the fechas pulled up to church. That means we have to take off all the fechas that didnt go to church. One Fecha named Gabriel, is getting baptized in a river. Sadly he asked my comp to perform the ordinance. That means I don't get to bap in a river.the planning for it goes crazy! We have to scout a spot, find a spot to change, what members want to drive 30 minutes for the baptism. The other 2 are little kids. We get to baptize them on Sunday in a font. Now for the title, I have been really tired every single day, and I'm trying to find a reason why. I think it's because of, my lack...
