We went to go contact this lady yesterday. She was an old investigator from months back. We walked to her house, and we asked how she was. She said she was cleaning her house and all that. So we basically obligated her to accept our help. We said we would help her, and she said," Come in and help me, pues". So, we went inside, found two brooms, and started sweeping for like 30 seconds until the lady said, "No don't worry about it! I want to listen to you! You shouldn't have to come here and clean my house" We just said "Hermana, you said clean my house, so we gonna clean your house, pues" But she insisted that we sit down and talk, so we weren't going to pass-up the free oppurtunity to teach. She ended up being a devout Catholic, but she said she was willing to read a little and ask Heavenly Father if she should change churches. So well see how she goes!!!!!!!!
We found a guy chopping wood on the side of the road. So, we offered to help him, and he miraculously accepted. So, we helped him cut wood with machetes for about half an hour, and he thanked us, gave us something to drink, and we managed to teach him a little about the restoration. It is important to remember that we are here not only to baptize, but to just be nice people, be of service, like the Savior. As far as an investigator, the guy isn't going to progress, ..., but we need to help everyone, whether they accept the message or not.
