Hi
guys,
Man that’s
crazy and stinks that you had to wait in the airport for soooo long! I would have been bored out of my mind,
literally! Airports aren’t a very
fun place to spent lots of time in, especially at night! Hey look at it this way it’s a pretty
funny story to tell people later lol.
(Our flight was cancelled due to fog in Idaho
Falls)
That’s
awesome that everything went good for the reception in Idaho and that snow
looks awesome! I laughed when I
read that Katie thought snow fell in little balls, yep they’re flakes Katie–
snowflakes! I'm pretty sure that’s
one thing I won’t get much of here. It’s pretty warm - it is South America lol! That’s awesome that Hailey and Kendal
made the dance team!! It’s pretty
funny that both Cameron and Justin’s wives are both dancers. Does that mean I
need to find a dancer when I get back or what? This is some new rule for the Moore
boys? OK, time for the CA
reception, I guess now the work begins for you guys at home. I’ll be thinking of you! Mom, I know everything is gonna turn
out great!
This
week seemed to go faster than the rest and we had some interesting experiences.
One day, I can’t remember which
right now, but there was this huge rainstorm. It started out calm just before we left our apartment and I
thought it would end in like ten minutes, but I was wrong. Remember about that
last storm I told you about and how I thought it was big, well this one made
the old look like child’s play. It was raining so hard and there was so much
water that umbrellas couldn’t touch it. The
water was going through the umbrella and the wind was blowing the water
every which way so it was impossible to stay dry. The streets flooded so fast
and they were like actual rivers. IT
WAS AWESOME! A little water wasn’t
gonna to stop us! We had an appointment
on the farthest part of our area so we had a lot of walking to do and that was
ok. I didn’t make it very far before I was completely soaked. And this time the
rivers were up to our knees and sometimes a little higher. The house we needed to get to was up
the river, it was literally two steps forward one step back - the water was so
strong, but we made it! Wet and
cold for the rest of the night, but not complaining its nothing compared to Rexburg!
We
had an appointment with one of our investigators this week. She is having a
problem believing the Book of Mormon it true so that was our focus of the
lesson. My comp was talking with her trying to figure out why she was having a
problem, then I felt impressed to ask what have you actually read in the Book
of Mormon. She said she’s been reading, but this time I took Justin’s advise
and I was just really direct and straightforward. It turns out she had only read the intro. I then began to
testify and talk to her about actually reading the book, the intro is good, but
to help her gain a testimony, she needs to get in there and read the it. I
could really feel the Spirit helping me with what to say and this was one of
those times where I can’t really remember what I said. I know that the Spirit was really strong
and that she felt it too. After I
finished talking my comp began to talk about the power of the Spirit. He used me as an example and said not
too long ago my comp could barely speak or read Spanish but now through the
help of the Spirit he just talked and bore testimony in perfect Spanish, everything
he said made sense (did you hear that? Perfect Spanish!). I know that I could
not have said what I said without the help of the spirit, there is no way. I
just remember talking and saying stuff, not really knowing what I was saying. But
that’s because I wasn’t the one talking, I was just the mouth peace. That was a
really cool experience and it really strengthened my testimony of the importance
of the Spirit in our lessons. I
loved it!
On a
lighter and funnier note. After I wrote you guys last week I went and got a haircut.
I didn’t have very high expectations going into it but I wish they were a
little lower, because it’s not good. I want to be nice but it’s also the truth
when say it’s probably the worst haircut
I've HAD. But its okay my hair grows fast and people here don’t care too
much about hair so its all-good lol!.
I
love you guys and I hope everything goes smoothly with the reception. I know
you guys can do it. We are Moores
we can do anything!! I love you, kiss my puppies fore me!! P.S. - sorry about
the not sending any pics lately I just haven’t taken very many but ill try to
take some good ones for you guys this week!
