The Work Progresses

This week went really well. It was kind of calm, considering my companion goes home in a week and was kind of trunky, but we actually got a lot done. We visited a lot of less actives that he showed us, he was born in this area. Later a member showed us two referrals- Carlos, a retired teacher in a wheelchair and also Martha, a less active Jehovah´s Witness that is not content with her worship in that church. Her son is also a recent convert. My companion knows a lot of scriptures in the bible to prove wrong a lot of the JW´s beliefs, so he used those and she was really surprised to see so many new and different things. My comp takes pride in his bashing knowlege, even though he doesn´t like the word ¨bash¨. Carlos probably isn´t going to progress much, but I think Martha has already been converted. She is already planning on becoming a member of our church, we just haven´t rushed anything with her. She works on sundays but is going to ask for time off to be able to attend church. The last time we visited her she told us that she thought of us as angels because we found her and were teaching her new true things. I was suprised, normally it is only the members or recent converts that say that about the missionaries.
