Cherry DP and so much dang rain

This week was awesome. Elder Sanjinez is already a pro, we've been finding a ton of a new investigators and working with the ones that we're left when we came to Vilcanota, we found a new investigator this week Raul, the house he lives in is full of members and already knows about the church. We had our first lesson with him on Saturday and we decided to just straight up invite him to baptism, they tell us a lot to try to invite people to baptism the first lesson and honestly I haven't been doing it that much, I don't know if it's cause I get scared about what they're gonna say or what but I decided to overcome my fear this week. Actually I made Elder Sanjinez do it but still haha. Raul accepted!! It was a really good lesson and it all worked out really well, of course Raul told us he doesn't feel ready but I knew he was going to say that, but we explained to him that over the next month we'll be doing the best we can to prepare him. He really does want to learn more about God and come closer to Christ, he talked a lot about that on Saturday and it made us really happy haha. He has a date for February 17, I know for a fact he'll be ready and we'll be focusing all our efforts on him. He also came to church yesterday;)

Things have finally died down a bit after being really stressed about the whole new area thing but we're getting into the routine now and we have investigators to teach, I'm learning SOOOO much teaching Elder Sanjinez. Yesterday we talked a lot about how much you can learn on the mission and it was a LOT. I've been doing a ton of thinking this past week about just how much I've learned, it's crazy. Hopefully I can keep learning as much as I can before time runs out, but I know I'll just keep on learning;) 

So yah things are good! Hope all of you have a good week!!! Moroni 10:32-33 (Sorry If I repeat scriptures, don't remember)


32 Yea, come unto Christ, and be perfected in him, and deny yourselves of all ungodliness; and if ye shall deny yourselves of all ungodliness, and love God with all your might, mind and strength, then is his grace sufficient for you, that by his grace ye may be perfect in Christ; and if by the grace of God ye are perfect in Christ, ye can in nowise deny the power of God.
33 And again, if ye by the grace of God are perfect in Christ, and deny not his power, then are ye sanctified in Christ by the grace of God, through the shedding of the blood of Christ, which is in the covenant of the Father unto the remission of your sins, that ye become holy, without spot.

Mery went to Arequipa this week and bought me a DP cherry, it's been about 15 months since I've had one, It made me happy.
