Hello everyone! I always feel a little wierd starting this letter. I´m bad at introductions. And spelling. Sorry bout that. 

This week has been good. We really focused this week on less actives and members to give ourselves a little break from knocking so many doors. Through it we meet some really interesting people.

There´s this one man named Luís. I forgot his name and so didn´t realize that Hna Brown and i had visited him once before and he doesn´t have any potential for coming back to church right now. I didn´t remember until we were at his apartment, but we already had an apointment set up with him so we went in. He was nice, but strange. He kept giving us the most bizzare complements. Hna Roan carries a pocket dictionary around with her and htat was the only way we were able to know what his complements were. He was calling us wise and ingenous. So random. He told us that he could read people´s personalities on their faces. When we finally managed to get out of his house we just stared at each other in the elevator for a few seconds, both of us were a little dumbfounded. It was one of hte strangest citas I´ve been in.

It was kind of sad too. Because at one point the Spirit was super strong. Hna Roan was testifying in a way I´ve never seen her testify before. We both bore our testimony´s several times, and we could see that Luís felt the Spirit in his face. But then he abruptly changed the subject and shut it down. I could almost physically see him push the Spirit away. Even if Luís didn´t grow much from the cita, he listened to more of a lesson than he did when Hna Brown and I visited him. So maybe one day he´ll decided to come back, you never can tell.

This week in one of our eating cita´s we got there and then foudn out a companionship of Elders was invited too. We asked who but they couldn´t remember their names, and so 10 minutes later when the Elders still weren´t there we started calling all the Elders, trying to find out who it was. I was feeling super awkward because the food was ready and everyone was waiting to eat. The family is from South America too (Dominican Republic) and food is REALLY important to people in those countries. 

So we finally get ahold of the right set of Elders. It´s the companionship that has the District Leader, Elder Johnson in it. But Elder Johnson is on exchanges with another set of Elders from a pueblo. So the Elders coming are Elder Johnsons newer companion and the companion from the other set.  They say their on their way and they´ll be there in a few minutes but to start without them. So we do. 

Twenty minutes later they still aren´t there so we call them again. They are SO lost. Neither of them know our area at all, one doesn´t even know Granada because he works in a pueblo (town outside of Granada). We give them directions and tell them which bus to get on. They accidently get on going the wrong direction so they have to get off and back on another bus and then take the time to ride the bus. By this time we´ve finished eating and are wondering if we should leave and just go pick them up, Because the Elder that works in the pueblo needs to catch a bus to go back to his town in about an hour, and it takes about 45 minutes to get to the bus station from where we are. 

The Elder ends up missing his bus because they come in to eat. I was feeling so awkward and not really sure what to do this whole time. Thankfully, the elder from the pueblo is Spanish and really knew how to smooth out the situation. He had everyone laughing and cooled down any hurt feelings. So glad he was there. After the cita we helped the Elders get on the right bus, crossed our fingers and went to our next cita. So glad they made it to the bus station okay, and they were able to trade his ticket in for another one. But it was definately an adventure.

By the way, Happy Thanksgiving. Kind of forgot that´s this week. Wierd.

Love you all!!!
