The inactive family we´re teaching has had relatives visiting from Buenos Aires, so we couldn't teach them this week. But Evelyn, the 24 year old, has a son named Alejo who turned 4 years old. So we brought him a little present and chatted with her. She wants to come to church, but couldn't because of the visitors and all that. But this Wednesday we´re having a noche de hogar (family night) , so i hope they commit to come this week.
Julio is getting baptized this Saturday! I don't know if I've described Julio very much. But he's super awesome. One day he was busy doing yard work, but still attended us. He´s just a super happy dude.. always smiling.. sometimes its hard to take him seriously because he's just so smiley haha. But he has come to church 3 times now, and came to an activity this week. We had a ward activity and he really bonded with our branch president.
We went to visit Jose´s (he has one eye) to teach him and help him quit smoking. We made these huge posters about quitting smoking and pictures of Jesus and put them all over his house.
We did a noche de hogar (family night) with another menos activo (less active) member family this week. It's a lady and her 2 sons. One of them, Santi, is 17... and he's just a teenager, kinda too cool for anything, ya know? But his mom made him participate I'm sure. So after sharing 1 Nefi 16, about Nefi's broken bow.. we played a game. And I suggested "water in the face". (the only game i had off the top of my head haha) I think we played it a couple times in family nights. so we played it and it was a big hit! It was my turn to start it off and Santi guessed it right.. so I squirted my water bottle super hard in his face. And it got the who family laughing and then they got super into the game. It was great, and the mom was so happy that her sons were actually interacting with her. It brought the family together.
We also found a guy named Armando, who's talked to missionaries for 20 years and has never came to church. But we met him on the street, then visited him in his home... and he came to church for the first time! we were so excited. Crazy.
