Dear Family,
Welp, the rainy season is definitely
here in full force; It's a love hate relationship. I love biking when
it's raining and it is just pouring buckets on you, so fun!, but the not so fun
part is when you are soaking wet and walking around in soggy socks for the rest
of the day:) But its so great and it mixes things up a little bit cause
sometimes it can be a little chilly! What an exciting time to be a missionary!
This past week was really good-there
were something that were frustrating but a lot of really great things that are
continue to happen here in Clear Water!
We have this family that we are
teaching and they are actually not a family quite yet, Vantha and Chantha,
They are living together and they are not married. They are a young couple and they are super great investigators and love learning about the gospel. We taught about the Law of Chastity and how they either need to live separately or be married in order to be baptized. They are kinda at a wall on what to do because they say they can't live in a separate place and that they can't get married or else the organization that they are learning through won't let them learn there if they are married. We encouraged them to pray about what they need to do and we promised them blessings that they will receive by keeping this law.
We are going to keep working with them.
We were able to visit with our BM leader and he shows some great potential to come back to church he said that he for sure will be there this week. But that yesterday he had a field trip for his school. Having an active Branch Mission Leader will be a real nice perk!:)
We have another investigator that started to learn with us who has learned about Christ before who a member referral and a good friend and neighbor of a member. Things are continuing to grow and are just going wonderful. We have a lot of investigators and we should hopefully be getting them in the water real soon!
