Week 4 in Rosario Mission

Hola Mi familia! This week has been a good one for mi, and it sounds like it`s been a really good week for the family back home! This Week  Not a lot happened to be honest, but it was a great week for some of our investigators and their progression, as well as finding new people to teach :)  At the start of this last week we visited a lady named Nora. Nora is from Peru and is probably like in her late 50`s more or less, she went to church once  when she lived in Peru but only went once with a friend and it was along time ago, so she didn`t really remember anything about it. So anyways this was our 4 lesson with her, and we were talking about the doctrine of christ. Fe, Arrepentimiento, Bautismo, el don del espiritu santo, and persiverar hasta el fin, and when we were done explaining these things she told us outright that she wasn`t going to be baptized in our church haha she is  very direct.

 Sunrise is Rosario  M essi`s house is one of the towers that are twins! he lives in the one on the right! for the boys haha  Mission home Hey Mom :) Sounds like it was a great week up there in Canada! I can`t believe Karlyn is leaving already!!  This week was a challenging one as far as statistics were concerned... We only probably had 7 lessons maybe and everyone that said we could come by canceled, it was super frustrating... So we contacted a lot this week and I`m super tired haha but it`s good,we found like 4 new investigators to teach and the work is moving along slowly, we are programming like 9 people for baptism but they are taking longer progress for some reason. Down here it`s a huge sacrifice to people to go to church, like and it`s for weird reasons sometimes haha like it rained the day before Sunday and there was only like 30 people in sacrament meeting... because it rained the day before haha it was different.
