All is well, we had a good week. We have been talking with the Mendoza family and she said that next Sunday she will have off, and she is looking to be able to have every Sunday off and possibly another job where she doesn`t have to work Sunday. We have been praying a lot for their family, they know a lot of members and also Dario (brother Mendoza) always goes to the church on Thursdays to play soccer.
That is something very common in Paraguay, grown men playing lots of soccer/volleyball in the streets. They also have a sport where you only use your head, feet, and chest to get the ball over the net. Its called piki.
We are also teaching a man named Antonio that is 32, he has been studying with the Jehovah`s witnesses too, and we had a lesson the other day where we taught him about the Plan of Salvation. He said he really enjoyed how we taught and that it was much different than the Jehovah`s witnesses. He accepted a baptismal date but wasn`t able to come to church on Sunday, we don`t know why yet.
Other than that, all is pretty normal, we will have a conference this week with a member of the 70, so that should be fun. And Elder Kjar`s Spanish is coming along great. Many members comment how much he has improved. I know the Lord blesses us with the gift of tongues as we study diligently to obtain it. We also went to the temple to clean it this last week, that was really enjoyable too. When we are outside, we can hear the noise of the streets and cars, but when we enter, it's complete silence.
Other than that, not much else new, hope you are all doing well, next Monday will be the last transfer for my mission, so we will see if I stay in the area or go to a new place. Can`t wait to hear from you soon!
