20170522 Elder Geddes in the mission field - Yummy Tacos!

This week was a little rough. We tried to focus on our investigators and really work on the ones that we have but the problem is that none of them are progressing because they don't come to church and keep their commitments. Its so easy all they have to do is do the things that we are telling them and they will know that its true and will be able to live better lives, but they just don't do it. This week we are going to spend more time finding new investigators, hopefully some who are ready for the gospel. We had an investigator that we had been teaching for a while, Vanesa, who told us that she doesn't want to change and so she doesn't want to meet with us and my heart just hurts for her because she could live a much happier life with the gospel. We had  Our baptismal fecha (date) fell this week too. Odalys wouldn't come to church and we visited her later that day and she said that her father isn't going to let her travel to get baptized because its too far away. We want to talk to her father but he's never home. He works until late at night. We are working hard and always busy doing something but we aren't having the most success. My brain doesn't want to do Spanish haha. I'm going to have a companionship inventory this week. I'm trying the best I can but there is so much that I don't know. But I keep trying and I am learning even if its not as fast as I would like. The scriptures have a new meaning on the mission. I love to read them. I feel like I could study them all the time. The gospel so much deeper than we realize.  Its crazy. I want to learn it all haha. But first, I want to learn Spanish.

Love Elder Geddes

Also enjoy this picture of tacos (you should be jealous)
