Transfer 4 Week 2- May 14, 2012

·         We were so sad that we were unable to have a lesson with any of our investigators...but on the bright side that gave us opportunities to find, find, find! And find we did! We found tons of new investigators to teach and we are excited to meet with them this week. We also have tons of lessons set up with potential investigators this week so we hope that we are able to find even more people to teach!
We got really excited when we knocked a door and the man let us right in to teach him. We had an awesome lesson and at the end we invited him to be baptized. The Spirit was so strong! But finally he told us that this was all knew to him and it seemed like a lot to take in. It was very disappointing when he didn't invite us back.
Mother's day was pretty much like any other day except that all the church meetings before sacrament got canceled and I got to call my mom!!!!! Oh and I wore my favorite yellow tie!
Yesterday we drove all the way down to La Honda to teach a former investigator and her less active husband. It is about a 45 minute drive along Highway 1 with a view of the beach the whole way. One day when I am no longer a missionary I will return and enjoy the beaches that everyone describes as "freezing" along with the endless fog that we have here. We parked our car on a street the other day and then walked to our lesson. When we came out we spent about 15 minutes looking for the car. The fog was so thick that we passed the street that the car was parked on. And because all the streets look exactly the same (especially at 9pm with fog) we were convinced that the car had gotten towed. I think the thought of President Wade getting mad (when not really mad, President doesn't get mad, just disappointed) about our towed car was scarier than having to walk 30 minutes back to our apartment.
Sincerely,
Elder Luis Gonzalez
