sick week..

SO i was sick this week. went to the doctor. found blood in my stool. i hope thats not weird in the latino culture, they are very blunt. and dont feel weird talking about things like that. so yeah... me either. =D so they said that if my medicine doesnt work that i have i will have to go back in for a colonoscopy or something.  thats what i understood. haha worried about that. gaaay. hahaha =D stop laughing at me. i dont want that to happen. =P 

 BUT i feel better. my stomach doesnt hurt. i am hungry always. i dont know why. its a weird thing. its a pain but its hunger. so im eating a ton. hopefully ill gain the weight back. but i have a six pack.. =D woosh. just going to work out a ton and keep it. =D but yeah. have diarrhea still. but only that. worked really hard this week.

 so we found a mom and son. named Elsa and Angel. so they are so great! they will be baptised the 22. 

 milton will be baptised either this week or next. he can this sunday. but we are going to see what he wants. =D 

 so we are planning on 10 baptisms this change. thats in the next 4 weeks. only 1 is the investigator that they had before me. i was here and we found all the others. haha they had a huge list. but none of them were going to progress. so we cut them. and we are working really hard. seeing a lot of miracles. haha its so great. 

 thats my week. not really much else to say. sorry its so short. haha yeah. so just to clear things up. the mission address. will be the same for 2 years. its the office of the mission. second. i want to train. so thats my new goal. =D i want to help more people.

 and this week. i just fell more in love with the work. rejection is hard. but! i just think. thats not the one god put in my path. and i keep looking! that is the truth. im looking for the ones god has prepared. im learning so much here. i pray for you all all the time. =D the mission. is really the best 2 years. well. best 6 months. but it will only get better! haha wooosh. im so excited. 

 the doctor said i cant drink milk. so yeah. the mornings are hard without cereal. haha and i got my comp addicted to cereal. now he eats all mine. haha =D 

 but yeah. my comp is great. super funny. he likes to teach a lot. so yeah. he does all the information. i do the listening. its awesome. time for an experience.

 so we were in the chapel with our investigator kevin. he didnt know if he should wait for his friend to come home to be baptized. he comes home from a mission in one year. so we told him he can go to the temple with him when he gets home. but! the best part. he was confused. =D haha you are wondering . why is that the best part. well cause thats the spirit of the devil. and god wants him to have a clear mind. so i received a ton of direction. so we taught about prayer and how he will feel what he should do. than i asked if god made you feel good when you ask about baptism. what should you do. and he said baptism me and than i felt like i should invite him to pray. now. so i did so we knelt down and he prayed. the first one he had a lot of indirect questions. like what should i do with my life. and when should i do this baptism. and he didnt say in the name of jesus christ amen. so, i felt horrible. the spirit wasnt with him. he was more confused. than it testified to me again. do it again. the right way. so. i said. ask one question. like should i be baptized the 22 of this month. now this is testing my faith too. haha and i said close in the name of jesus christ. when he prayed. it was so strong. I KNOW that the spirit touched him. when he ended his prayer. i just said. in the night do it again. and compare your answers. and tomorrow we will see you in the church. so he asked dont you want to know what i felt. and i said. i know what you felt. but its your experience. something sacred to you from god. i dont want you to tell me anything. =D next day he came to church. for the first time. =D he will be baptized the 22 as well. =D 

 i love the work. dont have much more time. so i love you all. 

Love elder Evans

 we put this on the wall to lift our spirits when we enter. haha
