This week was absolutely fantastic!
On Sunday, we had a little bit of the best day ever! We had 4 investigators from different houses come to church! FOUR! And the most amazing part? Two of them are in wheelchairs and (luckily I am in the richest ward in our mission) the members helped us bring them to and from church! One was Luis from last week. Anahí came also, she really enjoyed it as well.
Another great thing happened on Sunday, we taught Balsamina and invited her to be baptised. She said YES! On the condition that we keep teaching her everything and she wants to be baptized in December! She said that she had been praying and got her answer! The best words I have ever heard on my mission by far. Sunday was fantastic. Even finished it off with a great homemade hamburger without the bun haha just lettuce wrap due to my diet.
Speaking of my diet, it isn't by choice! Due to the fungal infection (Candida) in my gut I have to stay away from basically everything that feeds it. It's called the Candida diet! Basically all I can eat is eggs, meat, veggies (not all of them) and yogurt (unsweetened). I can't even eat fruit! Super fun huh? Turns out when it dies it actually makes you feel worse for a while before it gets better. I am already feeling that so hopefully I am on my way to getting rid of it. It makes me super exhausted and something funny is that I throw random english words into conversations on accident. At the house, it is puro spanglish! But it will be worth it! There is also the plus side that I am losing a lot of fat along the way! All that weight I gained in the office and before is gone! We're talking a solid 20 lbs! (Not all of it was lost due to this diet, we had been doing a ton of exercise before hand)
Anyway, thats gross! I am sure you didn't want to hear that one haha I heard that my brother Weston got a cold, same here bro!
Besides all that, on Tuesday, President invited us to have dinner at his house!!! Woohooo! It was great!
This week we found an investigator that came to general conference. We set an appointment and she actually called us a couple hours beforehand to ask if we were still coming! She was so open and nice and it was a great lesson. Her name is Carol.
Anyways, everything is going great! Don't yall worry about me and my health, it won't be long before I can eat another Tres Leches cake haha
