week 20

So this weeks been a little interesting.  As always there's been blessings and good things that have happened, but unfortunately also sad/hard things.  First off my companions been pretty sick this weeks so we've been getting a little stir crazy in the apartment.  And through this I've learned that I really like being outside talking to people, and am not a big fan of staying inside.  But you do what you gotta do.  Hna Gonzales really is pretty amazing, she's been having to deal with an awful migrane and with lack of sleep, and she's been dealing with it with an amazing amount of grace.  The other major thing that happened this week is that we've basically lost Kevin.  We talked about what our purpose here as missionaries is: that we're here to share our message and invite everyone to ponder and decide whether they want to act on it.  Unfortunately he just wants to be friends with us, but doesn't have any interest in our message or on changing his life for right now.  I honestly loved Hna Gonzalez's reaction to that.  She told him that we have friends at home and that our purpose isn't to come here and to just pass time as friends.  Looking back that answer is pretty funny to me because its totally true.  Anyway I'm out of time.  Honestly there were miracles that happend in this week as well, sorry about focusing a little on the bad stuff.  but as always I'm loving being a missionary.  With lots of love
