| Pday in Negreiros -- It's not as desolate as we thought--8/13/12 |
So this week was good. We're making progress with the family of Jesus. He's been out working to provide for his family this week in Tumbes....what memories haha. We got the rest of his family to go to church,and the mom of Matilde (wife of Jesus), who is a member menus activo, said that she was going to come to church this Sunday with her daughter. I feel like we're finally making progress with this area.
We had cambios this week, and me and my comp are staying in the same place with the same company. We're content. We had the opportunity to talk with the person who had started the house chapel in Negritos. He is super inactive, but I can see his pain and sorrow. We've got his son active again. He and his friends really love basketball, and we had the chance to play with them one Saturday. This district is finally coming to life, but I think it will be years before they actually have a chapel here, at least I can say that I helped!
This week we're gonna try and put a date for the two chibolos (kids-slang) for the end of the month. I'm pretty sure that they will be content, and we're planning on having the dad baptise them. That will be good for him so that he feels responsibility. We're not suffering here too bad haah, but the sun sure is strong here, I'm gettin on top of that with some sunglasses haha. This week, I'll be lookin extra legit!
Enjoy the rest of the summer, and I hope y'all have a good time in school and work! Just know that I always pray for you guys and hope that all is going well, Life is fast, but I'm sure we can out run it! haha peace!!
