Dear Family and Friends,
This last week was super crazy and it just
was crazy because a lot of things happened!
Tuesday we went to the
doctor because I got a spider bite or MRSA or both at the same time. My infection was HUGE it hurt a lot but I am doing much better now. We still found time to talk to some people and
did some finding.
Wednesday was pretty normal and we were able to do some
service and teach.
Thanksgiving Day was crazy! We had an appointment to
see our recent convert Dianna. We had a nice visit with her and helped her family
prepare their Thanksgiving dinner. Then we went to our first Thanksgiving dinner appointment. On the way there I got a flat tire so of course we were late because we had to get a ride and it took awhile for them to pick us up. Dinner was good we had all the normal fixings. Then we went to our second
dinner which was really really good. We had it with the Gonzalez
family and it felt like we were at home with our own families. It was a
really good time with them!
Friday we had a conference with Brad Wilcox
who is a well known teacher at BYU and was a Mission President in Chile. We actually have his daughter in our mission right now. She is
waiting for her Visa to go to Spain. President Becerra asked him to
come teach us and it was super amazing!! We learned a lot!! One thing was about how literally our job right now is no matter what tribe of Israel that we are we need to gather the rest of the house of Israel and their specific oracles
will be revealed later. He taught us that as most of us are of the tribe
of Ephraim and Manasseh that Ephraim is building the eternal things and Manasseh the spiritual things. It was really cool to learn all that he
had for us! (On a mom side note I hope that I got this information right! Elder Reisner gets typing so fast and doesn't have time to spell check or re-read what he has typed and so sometimes I have a hard time interpreting. So, if I got this wrong please forgive me!) Then after that I went on exchanges with Elder Smith who is
leaving soon. He taught me a lot!
Sunday we had the primary program at
church. It was a great program but really different to hear it in Spanish. The songs in Spanish almost seem better than they do in English sometimes!
So,
that was my crazy week! It was a good one and we had a lot of good
things happen but I am excited for this week because I know things are
going to start to get even better!
Love, Elder Reisner
