Alma 26

Hola Familia!

I'm trying to find a word to describe my week without being negative... Well let me just tell you about it. We had lessons set up all week AND THEY ALL
FAILED(not robel though because he is cool). So we basically just
contacted on the streets all week and if I didn't know A Coruña
before, I do now!!!! Contacting is fun but when that's all you do all
day, all week, it's gets kinda old. Also, Spain is not as Catholic as
everybody thinks. There are two kinds of people in A Coruña. Old
people, who are so Catholic that they just look at you and run away or
the rising generation people, that are so atheist!!! You
mention religion to either of these people and they are gone. Also,
there is a third group of people and its the homeless and gyspy people
that you just don't talk to. Anyway sometimes contacting is fun,
getting to know the people and everything but rejection after
rejection it gets hard and I just don't feel successful contacting all
day, idk. Like we get people's number on the street, set up a lesson
just for them not to show up! Anyways, missionaries with experience
what helped you contact? ANYBODY have any advice to keep contacting
fun, to get people to stop? The Elders did have a baptism this week,
that was cool! Robel came! And he came to church! He is going places!
But with the elders baptism, the people getting baptized were a
single mom and her two kids, they were half an hour late! We were all
scared they were ditching, but it happened and the spirit was there!!!
As for our other investigators, Jose and Julio failed us twice. And
Alberto said he wants to see us but there are problems he needs to
take care. I did read some talks this week, I think were meant
especially for this week. Elder Wirthlin's "come what may and love it"
and President Monson's "find joy in the journey". Both great talks from
October 2008!!! Anyways, praying for lessons this week and excitement
for contacting!!!! Hope everybody continues to have a good summer!!!
Oh also it's not easy contacting when it's hot and sunny and everybody
is going to the beach, but keeping a positive attitude!!!! Anyways,
enjoy your summer!!! Read your scriptures, say your prayers and study
PMG!! Love you all!!!
