It has been been 5 days since he has arrived and he loves it! His companion, Elder Reeves, is just about finished with his mission and is a great trainer. The first few doors they knocked his companion took over, then he turned to him and said, "OK, these are all yours!" Although they were not successful in getting in, Elder Garcia was really excited.
He mentions that every day they go tracting they come across someone who ONLY speaks Spanish. So Elder Reeves will just sit back while Elder Garcia talks to them about the gospel. One of the Spanish speaking ladies that they came across was from Honduras and she actually let them come into her home. They talked to her about the Restoration of the Church of Jesus Christ. Elder Garcia and Elder Reeves have found 7 new investigators in the first 4 days. He is amazed at how many people are out there that want to know what they're missing!
Elder Garcia says that God has truly called him in this mission to talk to specific people that wouldn't have been reached because of the language barrier. He is the only one in his zone that speaks fluent English and Spanish and some French. He is learning so much about different religions! Mostly everyone is Muslim, or Catholic and the rest might be Christians. He says that he's been working hard and loving the people of Northern Virginia and that a marvelous work and a wonder has truly come forth!
Ha sido 5 dias desde que ha llegado y le encanta! Su compañero, Elder Reeves, ya casi termina con su mision y es un entrenador muy bueno. Las primeras puertas que tocaron su compañero se encargo de hablar, pero despues, se volvio a el, y le dijo, "Ok, estas son todas tuyas!" Y aunque no tuvieron mucho exito, Elder Garcia estaba muy entusiasmado.
El menciona que cada dia que salen a tocar, siempre encuentran a alguien que solamente habla español. Asi que Elder Reeves nadamas escucha mientras Elder Garcia les enseña hacerca del Evangelio. Una de estas personas, era una Señora de Honduras que los dejo entrar y le pudieron dar el maravilloso mensaje de la restauraccion. En esos primeros cuatro dias, ellos pudieron encontrar a 7 investigadores nuevos. El esta asombrado de cuantas personas hay que quieren conocer lo que les falta es sus vidas.
Elder Garcia escribe que Dios verdaderamente lo ha llamado a esta mision para hablar con personas especificas, quien de otra manera no se les pudiera alcansar por causa de la barrera del idioma. El es el unico misionero en su Zona que habla el Español fluido con un poco de Frances. El esta aprendiendo mucho hacerca de religions diferentes. Y la mayoria de personas ahi son Musulmanes or Catolicos y el resto quizas Cristianos. El Dice que ha estado trabajando duro y amando a las personas de Norte Virginia y que una obra maravillosa en realidad a aperecido!
Time in Washington
