It might sound like something hard but I can read and
understand it just fine. It`s just Isaiah that`s particularly
hard. Like for example, I came across this word, I don`t
remember right now what the word was, but when I looked it up
in the dictionary, well I had no Idea what it meant in English
so I had to look it up in my English dictionary. But as for
the rest of the scriptures it`s not so hard.
Well in my attempts to read whenever I could I decided to
bring along my pocket sized Book of Mormon (which just about
all my companions have been trying to get their hands on and
which is really hard to get a hold of here in Mexico) and well
we were looking for a reference (una Alma) that someone gave
us, but we couldn`t find it so we were asking around to see if
anyone knew him and we came across someone that didn`t speak
Spanish (or he was just messing with us) well he was born in
Colorado (which is Spanish for faded red) and he is Catolico (Catholic) and was married to a
testigo de jehovar (Jehovah's
Witness) but then got
divorced. When he was 6 he went to one of our churches for
about four years and had many other experiences with
religion, so I asked him if he heard about the Book of Mormon
and he said he did but not much, so I told him the story of
Lehi and his family and then offered him a Spanish Book of
Mormon, then he asked if I had one in English, so without
thinking about it I pulled out my pocket sized one and handed
it to him. It had to have been the Holy Ghost that told me to
do it because afterwards I thought about what I just did. I
gave him my pocket sized Book of Mormon with markings in it.
So I hope it does some good.
Well that`s basically what happened this week.
