Good day friends and family!
Well
this was my first full week in Curepe and it went good. We just did
lots and lots of tracting. Our biggest success was on Monday. We had an
appointment with someone on Monday night but it fell through so we just
went into the heart of town to contact. We kind of felt awkward there
and Elder Reyes wanted to leave but for some reason I just wanted to
stand there til I saw someone to contact. After about 10 minutes of
standing in one place this lady in the back seat of a car was looking at
us and I could tell she was definitely thinking something. They parked
next to us and she asked me what kind of tracts we were handing out. Her
name is Antonia. I gave her the Restoration pamphlet and set up an
appointment for the next day. I went on a trade off the next day but
Elder Reyes and Elder Whitlock had an amazing lesson with her. She said
she has been searching for this her whole life. We went back on Friday
and taught her again and she told us how she had felt something really
strong tell her to talk to us the night we met. She had seen
missionaries before but never really talked to them. We taught her about
the Book of Mormon and committed to be baptized. She is very excited.
Unfortuanately on Sunday her son had an asthma attack and they couldn't
make it to church. I was sad. But I know she will make it next week.
We also met some other great people and got a very less
active to come to church. The week was very hard at the same time
because we had a lot of appointments fall through and I ended up getting
a bad sunburn on my face. But we worked as hard as we could despite all
the fall outs and I know we are going to see great success. We already
have seen many miracles in this first week.
Love you guys! Have a fantastic week and share the gospel!
Love, Elder Hale
