Hello Everyone!
Well, this week is transfer week. On the bright side Elder
Vega and I will both be staying here in Monsefu. This week we were able to find
a few more investigators. One of our investigators came to church with us
yesterday, his name is Sandro and he is 19 years old. It’s a funny story how we
got to know him. Usually every day lots of people make fun of me in the streets
because I'm white, "gringo". Sometimes, they try practicing their english
which can be a bad or a good thing haha. I decided that every person that makes
fun of me I'm going to talk to them. You should see the faces of some of these
people when I turn around and start walking in their direction. Almost everyone
gets really timid and scared. Well, Sandro is one of these people that
was making fun of me! Over the weeks, we have become to be great friends and
this week he came to church with us. He is a “moto taxista” and gives us rides
for free and sometimes we even eat hamburgers together, it’s super fun. I'm
learning to be more bold and standing up for our beliefs. I know that everyone
has the light of Christ in them. As missionaries it’s our privilege to help
everyone find that light of Christ within them. Sometimes the best way to help
others recognize the light of Christ is to simply show the light of Christ
within you. I know that charity truly is the pure love of Christ.
Love,
Elder Goold
