This week has been pretty normal. We haven't had any more harmonica lessons, but we did meet with Luis this week and apparently he can play the accordion. He played some mariachi songs for us and it was pretty impressive. I hope I can somehow learn how to play it when I get to Mexico.
We had an appointment with an investigator but he wasn't home. We decided we might as well start knocking around trying to find people. We were doing so and then we came across some highschool kids playing soccer on a street ball court. It basically looked like a tennis court but had soccer lines painted on the ground, and had goals. We asked them if we could play and at first they were a little skeptical, but they allowed us to. We ended up playing for about 20 minutes and it was so much fun. I think they underestimated us. We invited them to church but none of them came. They said they wanted a rematch on saturday. I don't think we will go, but I guess we will see.
I am pretty sad to leave the people here in our little branch. Almost all of them are converts and they have the strongest testimonies. Our testimony meetings are always really spiritual. Yesterday, as soon as the branch president invited the congregation to come up and bear their testimonies, 9 people immediately went up. There was a line of about 7 or 8 people for the rest of the meeting. It was a very spiritual to see a small branch of about 40 active members have that kind of a testimony meeting. There were no long awkward silences while people waited for somebody to go up. They all just simply love the gospel and love to share their testimonies. I am going to miss all of them. Never be afraid to bear your testimony. Everybody has had their own personal experiences that makes their testimony special.
Well, the next time you hear from me I will be in Mexico, so hasta luego.
