Training again

Hola familia, This morning we received the call. And this week is cambios. Hermana Bustos has cambios...so I am going to be staying in the area...and YEP I am going to be training again. I´m actually really excited and I´m hoping that Im going to have a much better experience this time. Training is a lot of pressure and is really tiring but I´m excited to have the opportunity again. I´m hoping I´ll get to train one of those girls from Utah...but who knows what will happen. Tomorrow I have a meetin for trainers and then wednesday is the changes meeting. Normally when someone is training you are with that person until they finish training (which is 2 cambios), so whoever is my companion will probably be my last comp....thats crazy. This week we had a pretty good week, except for the fact that I had a cold for most of the week. That makes knocking doors and teaching in lessons really fun when your nose is running and you sound like a man. but its all good. haha I feel a lot better now. This week we had some interesting things happen with investigators. With the familia Posadas. We are still teaching them but they only have time for us on saturdays but I really feel like with them we just need to have patience and they will progress. They are just really scared to go to church first (more him than hna posadas...she is much more excited). They want to receive their answers first that this is true....but we have been explaining a lot of things and they really are starting to like everything that we have taught. There scared because of the things that other churches do here and they think it is going to be the same, but we have explained a lot more about the norms of tithing, the dress code, and rules like that and I feel like soon maybe this week they will go. Every time Im with them I really feel like they are chosen and prepared for us. We just need patience in teaching them. I have a lot of hope for them. The familia Martinez. We have been teaching them for like a month now. Rosa and her sister Magdalena went to church like 2 weeks ago. This we were teaching them and we were really sad because Rosa started working and had to work on sundays. We taught her about keeping the sabbath day holy but we didnt really think she was going to apply it in her life. During the week her sister, her husband roberto, and their family friend Joel committed to go to church but not rosa because she had to work. So then yesterday we passed for them in the morning to go to church and rosa was there in the house and we were so suprised because she told us she was going to go to church with us. then she told us she had asked for Sundays off and her boss wasn´t happy so she decided she was going to work there anymore. We were SO surprised. It was amazing that the whole family went to church. BUT .....then after church we asked how it went and they said they didnt have a good experience and i was just thinking...."What?" we were so happy for their efforts to go...and then they dont like it?? They said they didnt like how the members were on facebook on their phones during the meeting and how the talks weren´t using very many scriptures and it was more personal experiences. Honestly i think its more just that they are used to how the other churches are. It made me really sad...but I know we have done our part to teach them and help them to make changes in their lives. We are going to help them try and receive their answers that this is the true church...but its making it kind of difficult that they didnt enjoy it. Then we have Cesar. We just started teaching him like last week. he is like 24 and his uncle is a recent convert. He went to church and he really enjoyed it (haha its funny how in the same meeting the investigators can have completely different experiences). But we taught him last night and early in the week we had asked him if he could see himself being baptized in the church and he wasnt quite sure. But last night he told us that yes...and that in these days hes been reading the book of mormon and now he isnt going to drink coffee and he feel different. He has a baptismal date for 20th of december. We´ll see if he can´t keep working towards this date. But im excited to work with him. anyways thats all I have to say. Next week ill be with a new missionary! im really loving life so I hope you all have a great thanksgiving!!! Love you all! Hermana Groneman
