Quarantine: Week 2

Hola a todos!

We have been locked up in piso all week, and has it been the most enjoyable experience, no, but it has been a fun experience. And we even saw a miracle in our time in piso, it's amazing how the work of the Lord moves forth no matter the circumstance!

So our little miracle this week. The way we work in piso is by sending text messages to people, calling people, and working with Facebook to find people to teach. But one day, we texted a man who had been in our contacts for a long time and asked him if he had an interest. He didn't respond for a few hours, so we thought nothing of it, but we didn't delete his number. Later that day, we got a message from a group chat we were not familiar with. Confused, we looked at the messages that were piling in. They were all questions about the church. And then the first text of the group chat said something like this: Hey Élders I am the guy you texted earlier today. I have interest, and so do 13 of my other friends, so I made this group chat with all of us. Can you guys answer some questions for us?? We were kind of in shock, 14 people who have interest??? 14?!?!?!?!? Madre mía! So for the rest of the day, we texted these guys and answered their questions, and taught them the 1st lesson, the Restoration. Clearly, God had a hand in this miracle here, and it was an answer to a prayer. Even in quarantine when we can't go outside, the work goes forth!

I hope everyone is doing well and staying sane. Be sure to stay at home and wash yo hands!!!

1. Yeah we made a ping pong table out of our dining table and toilet paper.

2. So the city announced to close your windows and doors because they would be "sanitizing" the city. I was imagining a lysol helicopter flying over the city and dropping lysol or something. But, its this tractor towing around a tank that sprays the sanitizer out the sides. It's been raining for 6 days straight so not sure if it did anything, but I give them an A for effort.
