Another week gone,
It's been yet another week gone by in the mission field. Little
by little the time just gets shorter and at the same time the work gets more
enjoyable. We had some nice experiences this week.
We were pretty unlucky in terms of being able to get rendezvous
with Amis, but c'est pas grave because went you're not able to set up
rendezvous, that's the Lord telling you to go finding. And that's what we
did.
A couple of nights ago we went street contacting, and we came
across a man and stopped him. He stopped to listen and seemed very happy to see
us. Though the time we had to talk was extremely short, the good feeling of the
spirit was present and he told us at the end of our exchange of words that he
felt good to see us and felt the good feeling inside. We both felt it, too.
We're going to see him this week to share more of our message with him.
A few minutes later a very similar experience happened. We
stopped another man who most happily stayed to listen to us. He was a believer,
baptized in another church but doesn't necessarily associate himself with just
one church. We came in and explained our beliefs a little, and he was
captivated. He said he felt a good feeling inside while talking with us and
hopes to see us again, soon.
It felt good to know that we were able to bring the spirit with
us to those people, so they could recognize us as representatives of the Lord.
There's just nothing quite as satisfying.
Mais bon, the week to come will be in effect the last full week
of my missionary service so I'll try make it a good one.
Until next time.
Love,
Elder Aburto
