We ate tacos for thanksgiving. I was going to take a picture but when i finally remembered, they were pretty much gone.
It´s been a great week in the favo. We´ve found quite a few people. We were able to teach a new family. We were outside the gate and the mom was outside the house working on some things, she said that we couldn´t be attended then but then elder castillo saw that they had a disc from some chilean group so he asked if they were from chile. They were and started talking about chile and then the lady let us in and we taught her and her kids the restoration. manso! We´ll be visiting them again tomorrow.
We found a few other people and taught several lessons but the most progression that we´ve seen is in the arredondo family. The part member family that came last week. The mom wasn´t able to come to church yesterday due to work but the husband, oracio and their daughter astrid came all the same! Awesome! They had a great experience. Earlier on in the week, we were planning to go by and visit them and that day the mom called us to let us know that she had taken out like a date for them to get married!!! January 2nd!!!!!!! WOOOOOOO!!! And on saturday they accepted a baptismal date for the 3rd!!! WOOOO!!! So they are doing great. Law of chastity, check. Word of wisdom... we´ll be working on that! We taught it last night and will be making a plan with them this week. On saturday we did service for a different family. I got blisters that hatched right open and were kind of painful, considering how many hands we shake a day. When we visited the arredondo family last night they cut off a leaf of their aloe vera plant and put the gooey juice on my hand and gave me the leaf to take home. They also made a tea... hot water and a plant from outside their house for elder castillo because he had a cold. So they understand really well the good use of herbs, they just need to work a little to stop smoking.
Yesterday morning we were running a little late getting to church. Elder Castillo mentioned how funny it would be if President and Sister Goates were there at church. We get to church a few minutes late. It hadn´t started yet but guess who was there... President and Sister Goates!!! Haha Elder Castillo has a gift for calling things like that! (not that we run late often).
So it´s been an awesome week. Things are going well! Always looking for new people to teach!!! Getting excited for Christmas!
Hope you all have a great week!!!
Love,
Elder Fullmer
