Hey my dudes,
We had a really wet week here in Mexico. I'm pretty sure it rained every single day this week and I think it's gonna stay like that until the end of the year so that's gonna be fun! Honestly it's better than walking in missionary clothes in the sun all day!
This week the World Cup started and everybody's going crazy. Apparently it's just about the most important thing in the world down here. And it was even crazier because Mexico beat Germany (one of the best teams). One of our more difficult investigators actually said (jokingly) that if Mexico beat Germany he would get baptized, so let's see how that goes! It was definitely a miracle haha.
Also this week we had the goal to talk to Ulisses, the boyfriend of one of our investigators. We hadn't really ever talked to him because, to be honest, we're kind of afraid of him haha. I'll tell you why in a second. Anyways we were in a lesson with his girlfriend and he came in and I decided to talk to him (it was a scary decision though). He started to talk to us and actually really opened up which was cool. This is why he's scary, he just got out of prison a few months ago. He told us all of the stuff he's done and how he gets into a lot of fights with groups of 10 to 15 guys and beats them by himself. He also said he used to fight the biggest guys in prison just to get more respect. He's done some wild stuff. But the cool part was that at the end of his time in prison he prayed and asked God to help him get out. Within the week he was a free man! He says he wants to change but he's stuck in some problems right now. He asked us to visit him so we're going back tomorrow to start teaching him! Pretty cool experience.
That's about it! We have some good investigators that are progressing really well right now. Mexico is cool. Have a great week!
