Hey Momma!
We had a great time down in the city
today. But luckily Bro. R was nice and bought our lunch.
Yeah! I have read about it on Lds.org.
(the bombing in Brussels with the missionaries) Wow! I didn't know Elder Hillstead knew him. That is crazy. There has to be some sort of reason. That is just
so scary and what is happening over there. Cody was the first one I
thought of so I checked to make sure I did not see his name. I
definitely am aware. I just can't imagine how that will impact them but
it seems the missionaries stayed strong.
We
had a great week! Plenty of people at church this week. N is still
doing great. We are still teaching E, and he actually is already
ordained an Elder! But actually now we are teaching his work partner.
She is very interested too and we also got another new investigator! Her
name is J. She is the girlfriend of a less active who is slowly
starting to come back now, and it would be so cool because he could
baptize her! N would definitely be the closest to baptism I believe
right now. This week we taught 17 lessons so it was a great week. There
is a less active lady that we are teaching and she had a son on a
mission who actually just returned home! On Wednesday. He is basically
helping her get re-activated. His mission completely changed him and he
is going to start helping us out so we are excited. His name is S.
J who is J's wife finally came to church! He ended up having to
work. We were pretty bummed about that, but we are going to see them
again this weekend. It is just hard to believe that transfers are coming
up! We had a good Easter. Our dinner cancelled actually
cause sister S, the wife of the family that was going to feed us,
got sick. But luckily another member just called and said to come over
to eat so of course we went. But it was definitely a different Easter.
Just did not really feel like it. But we had some great lessons this
week. I don't really have some crazy spiritual story from this week but I
definitely feel I'm listening to the Spirit easier and really trying to
just let it guide me because it does all that time. I'm just excited
for General Conference honestly cause I love hearing from the Prophet
and Apostles.
Translating
doesn't make me nervous but it helps my Spanish a lot. I am trying to
really continue improving and I love it. It is very tiring though for
sure.
Time
definitely keeps flying! Hard to believe we will be skyping so soon
again. I have some pictures to send home so
I'll send them. I'll tell you more about our day today next week and all
of that cause I'm kind of short on time. I'm glad Dad enjoys it out
there. Sounds like it was definitely meant to be! Well I love ya momma
and I'll send pictures! Talk to ya soon!
Love,
Elder McArthur
