The surgeon has been pretty busy this week setting some new trends around the CCM haha! My companion had a tie that was given to him, and it was kind of fat... so I decided to pull out my sewing kit haha and make it into a skinny tie lol! I cut up the back of the tie and then pulled out the thicker fabric that holds the shape in the middle of the tie and then shaved off like an inch on each side and then folded over the excess fabric and stitched it up! It actually turned out way good, we were talking about it with our zone leaders and a bunch of other elders and now everyone is making their ties skinner, I’m sure all of our moms will be proud! I think I’m going to hold a little tie sewing "merit badge" for some Elders in my district tonight haha!
It’s crazy how fast time is already flying by I’ve been here for just about seventeen days but it feels like I’ve only been here for like two. Thanks so much for all of the prayers!!! They are definitely helping a lot! My Spanish still has a ways to go but it has gotten so much better over the last week! I’ve been praying a lot for the gift of tongues, and also the gift of discernment, which has definitely helped me a lot with my comprehension, so now I can actually understand a little bit when people talk to me. I was able to memorize the first vision and it’s been great to be able to recite it with some of our investigators. It never fails to bring the Spirit, even when it’s just a simple role play! There has been a lot of construction going on within the CCM, so our teacher decided it would be a good opportunity for us to go place some Book of Mormons. So me and Elder Atkin went and found a guy that was working on one of the lampposts and then we started talking to him... After we explained that our Spanish was "muy horrible" haha. We started talking to him about the Book of Mormon, in some broken Spanish. I explained that there was an important promise within the book of Mormon and then I shared Moroni 10: 4-5 and I bore my testimony about the Book of Mormon and then we gave him a Book of Mormon and asked him if he would read it and then pray to know if it was true! He was flipping through it as we were walking off, so hopefully everything works out! We are going to try and find him within the next couple of days if he’s still working here so we can follow up!
Elder Brant made it to Mexico!!! He’s in my zone so I should see him around the CCM quite a bit! haha We hit shoulders and back this morning lol! It was great to get a pump with my old gym buddy from back in high school haha!
Much love,
