Hey well my 2nd week in the field went geat. It went by fast. We had a tough week picking up investigators but we just picked up 5 in the last two days and a few of them are promising. In this country you never know if they are going to keep there commitments or be at the meeting you setup so you just have to keep trying. we are still teaching a few Hatians and they are good we just picked up a Dominican who speaks english too. His parents work in the casa de campo I guess it is the nicest resort in the carribean but his mom speaks 5 languages including arabic. Some peolple are just born with the gift of tounges like most Hatians. We have one of the new converts helping us teach an english class and he knows 4 languages learning a 5 and he is only 21.
My spanish is coming along great. I can undersand a lot now and contribute more and more to the lessons. Elder Allen is an awesome teacher and knows the gospel well. We have a lot of fun together. La Romana is a nice place. there are 8 elders here and 4 hermanas so quite a bit. we went to contact down at the bottom of our area called La Romana del oeste and that is a rich area. At moments it seemed like we were back at the states. There were some big houses and we ran into a family that we were going to teach but they were moving at they thought out of our area. But we ran into and now are starting to teach them. I hope it turns out cause we have to walk about 30 minutes to get out to them. the public transport doesnt go out there. But we are hoping things will pick up we are working hard and doing all we can.
Thats about all i have for this week. Wish you all a great week. Trust in the Lord for all and do everything you can to follow the example of Jesus Christ. love you all
con amor
