Fall is BEAUTIFUL!
Hola todos! It's been a wonderful fall week here in gorgeous
Minnesota. There are trees EVERYWHERE here, so it makes all the fall colors
just beautiful. This week has been a bit on the slower side.
But we are still enjoying ourselves out here in
Faribault.
We've been able to come up with some creative ideas to
find more people to talk to. This week, the weather was great, so we went
around knocking doors and offering to rake leaves to anyone who looked like
they needed it. And we had some pretty good success! What was really cool was
we felt prompted to surprise one of the families in our ward and rake their
yard while we had some extra time. Turns out, the husband had a blood vessel
pop in his eye, so he was on bed-rest and she was stressing out about
everything. So, we helped out just in the nick of time! It's amazing how
Heavenly Father can use us as instruments in his hands to be an answer to
someone else's prayer.
Some other good news from the week - Bob received the
priesthood and passed the sacrament for the first time this week! We also set a
day this week to take him to the temple for the first time, which should be an
amazing spiritual experience as usual! He gave me and Elder Nielson both
birthday presents since they are pretty close together, he gave me a packers
beanie. Haha! I love him!
We visited a less-active Hispanic fam this week, and they
fed us home-made flour tortillas and "frijoles de vaquero" or
cowboy-beans. I haven't had home-made Hispanic food for a while, it was great!!
Our little man Derek is still doing great, and we even helped him give a talk
in his class at church! He's so awesome, and we are looking forward to his
baptism.
I hope you all have a wonderful week this week! I love
being a missionary and sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ with everyone. It
truly changes lives! Cuídense (:
