I love technology...NOT!
Hey!
We are officially technology missionaries and are using our phones fully now They work as our regular phone now, it’s pretty exciting. We are allowed to use Facebook BUT we have to go into our Facebook and unfollow everything! Unfollow all our friends ,not unfriend them just unfollow them, so we don’t get the news feed. It’s confusing! I HATE TECHNOLOGY!!!!! But I have to learn to use it because it is one of the tools the Lord has provided for us to share the gospel with everyone. I was not super excited when I learned we were getting phones and I’m still not super excited but I’m learning to use the tools that have been provided for me and that’s what is important. We do still come to the library to email cause it is easier.
We had a dinner last week and it was cool. I learned these people’s son is serving in the Denver North Mission! So look out for an Elder Gonzalez from Riverside! He is in Brighton I think she said, so Grandpa and Grandma may know him. But its cool he is serving back there at home. Sister Gonzalez fed us on St. Patrick ‘s Day so we had some good food and she is super nice!
Other than that nothing much is going on. Still no one to teach. I love people(sarcasm)!! We were walking on the street the other day and we got called a cult twice. People were swearing at us left and right we had one guy say to us after we asked him if he knew anyone who would want to hear our message " I love my friends, I would never refer them to people like you". It was kinda frustrating but we keep going cause we know the power we carry as messengers of Jesus Christ. So even though it is one of the hardest things ever, we have to love EVERYONE we talk to. Luckily we got permission to go to the gym twice a day so that helps a lot with stress and I’m getting less fat so that is good. I’m still learning sign language so that’s fun! I actually like it a lot!!! I wish there was snow here, it’s just super hot all the time. I did get to interview with President Hammon this past week, it was great. I love Pres. Hammon, he is a great man! He is having us all create a vulnerability plan now that we have smart phones. When we are using our phones, if we feel like we are vulnerable to do something we shouldn’t, we had to make a plan to do something specific. It’s a plan so we won’t be stupid basically. It is a pretty good idea, you guys should make one at home.
So, that was my week. I love you!
