Well this week has been pretty dang awesome! We have taught Sammy like 5 times this week! And seeing as brother Bryand is his uncle we got bunch of members present too! He has dropped some pretty seriously hardcore addictions in this past week! He dropped smoking and alcohol basically cold turkey and is 11 days today off heroine!!!! Yaaaaa buddy!!!!! He is soooo smart! He is learning so fast! We are going to run out of stuff to teach him haha and his baptism is still a month away!! the 15 of September to be exact!
We had district conference yesterday! It was pretty weird! The building was filled! That surprised me. A lot of people came! President Maluenda came and his voz fuerte is just amazazing. The guys voice is truly moving! haha Like when you ride a roller coaster and you feel the force just thrusting you back, yeah, that's what its like listening to President Maluenda!
This week we had our zone leaders, our district leader and his comp come to blitz our area. We ended up with about 8 referrals! So hopefully this week we can contact them all and find some of them with desires to follow Christ!
Last night we were talking to a few of our neighbors and they were talking about how they just love being (insert religion) because they (the religion) forgive you for everything! People do not understand the process of repentance! Elder McConnell told them a pretty sweet analogy to help them realize how stupid what they said was. He said to do something bad and then repent is like slapping someone in the face and then saying sorry. The first time you will probably be forgiven but if you keep on slapping the person in the face over and over you are not going to be forgiven because obviously you are not sorry! That wise man.
We went tie digging before emailing but I got nada! :( I have a horrible feeling I am leaving Laredo! The transfer is over after this week and I just know I'm leaving. If I go anywhere it better be to Argentina! Some of the elders here, the only word I can use to describe them is GOOBERS. Just a bunch of goobers. But then there are a ton of studs too so it's all good.
I love you all so much and what the... you didn't get my email from last week? I wrote one!!?!? That's pretty weird! I hope all is well and you are all being the best member missionaries as possible!
Con mucho amor y un abrazo bien fuerte,
Elder Spencer McKee
