June 19th, 2017 AN INVESTIGATOR

This week has gone by pretty quicky. Some awesome stuff is happeninging here in good ol nazas. Gomez palaciooo

My comp got sick
yeah he got the throat sicks. He is a gosh dang chanmpion though and we kept working, but i could tell that it´s been a rough week for him. On thuuurrsday? we went downtown and got some medicine. The doctor lady was really friendly! my comp baught some shots, like needles and stuff. And we found a member who was willing to do the deed haha, she is a retired nurse so she knows her stuff, but it´s still a little weird to get a shot in someone´s living room. Mexico my man. 

Meetings
This week we had twooo big fat meetings. One with our president on tuesday, he said goodbye to everyone and taught about inspired questions and the conversion process. And on wednesday as a zone. But get this, I have no idea how this happened, but literally our zone meeting lasted seven hours. It was fun and cool and i learned a lot, but i don´t know how it took so much time haha. After the meeting we were late to our dinner appointment but we had a really promising investigator on the other side of our area, so we rushed all the way to the other side, probably 2 miles, and he wasn´t home haha, so we walked all the way back and our dinner appointment had been waiting like 4 hours for us and we were hecka hungry. But we had good spirits, I felt happy for trying even though nothing happened.

an investigator
There is an experience that i want to talk about without revealing who i´m talking about, but heck it is something magical to see people really make changes in their lives. The first meeting we had with this investigator, I was like "heck, this feels fetching dark" like I really could see how miserable they were and that satan was just tearing them apart. We tried to teach the best we could and God reached out his hand through us, but I walked away from that first meeting not sure if we had succeed at all.
Two or three meetings later, like probably a week later, We see this investigator again and They cannot shut up about how happy they are, they say that they can´t sleep at night, because they are so full of the love of God, And they don´t want anything else. I mean heck. Heck. I can see in their eyes that they are changing and that this is real. I can´t even tell you, it´s amazing.

I can print and I love long emails to read during the week. I love all your words. I miss yall. Peace out

Elder Griliot.

hey we had Christmas this week. we ate turkey and got to call our families. that was really nice. this week we also saved a cat. we were at like a little park gazebo and some little kids were next to us playing with this dying kitten. the cat was dying. he was crying and trying to get away, but his back legs didn´t work so he was just crawling and it looked really horrible. the kids told us he got hit by a bike. the little boy was like grabbing him and shaking him and it was pretty cold out. and it really seemed like the cat was going to die. so now we have a cat. he´s doing a bit better.  Elder Grilliot

New Camera! Elder Saico  My goofy smile look (Here is the gentleman that is blind that I shared in this week's letter.) okay well we have already got to go but man wasn´t it cool that i sent pictures this week? more next week probably some higlights from this week some of our friends told us some wack stories we talked with this guy who is really cool, he used so much drugs that he went blind, and then he left all the drugs and he told us that he is much happier blind than he ever was being an addict, he told us about the way that an addicts mind works and it´s really ugly. it really opened my mind. Drugs ruined his life and he has scars all up his arms because he tried to kill himslef with a razor. now he´s a really happy delightful blind man. his dad shined our shoes, his dad is ex police, he has some crazy stories too, he was almost killed a few times. like they kidnapped him ...

Muscle Boys Go!

I started teaching elder Saico some good phrases in english, he wants to go to school in America. One of the phrases that i tried to teach him was "Doof McMuffin, the greatest horseman that ever lived." but it didn´t stick. So this week we made a new power phrase, following our secret handshake, we throw our hands in the air and shout, "Muscle Boys Go!" At first he didn´t like it, but he began to realize that he could get me to laugh every time he says it, and so he uses it now to encourage me. Use Humor Earlier today i received some revelation that i was really needing. This has been a hard week actually. I´ve just been feeling grumpy and kind of stressed. And last night i had the funniest dream. I was hanging out with a bunch of guys from the NBA and they were just joking around, and in my dream i thought they were Sooo funny. like I’m almost sure that i laughed in my sleep. and i woke up and we went and bought groceries and i ate really well. i mixed scra...
