Hi Everyone,
Well another week has gone by just
like that!!
To answer your questions its pronounced
Guy-ann-a and they speak English, if you
could call it that. It’s like what you would picture Jamaican English but worse
and with less grammar. People here only
speak English but a few days ago we had a tender mercy of the Lord and we
contacted a guy from Cuba! E. Alatasi starts talking to him and to every
question he kept saying "good" and then tried to walk away. I asked
him if he spoke English and he said a little and from that accent I got really
excited and started speaking Spanish to him and 30 Mins later we were best
friends and E Alatasi was lost. haha It was so nice to talk Spanish again and
it was cool to hear what a Cuban accent is like.
Other than that this week was pretty normal
for Guyana. E. Alatasi had a bad habit of not making appointments with people
and just showing up so I have been trying to beat some sense into him so that
we can actually have people to teach instead of just walking around aimlessly.
At first he was kinda against it but after we tried it for a few days he was
blown away by how well it worked. We have a really good investigator named
Arifa. She is 18 and we recently started teaching her sister and sister's
husband as well. She has a Muslim dad and a Chistian mom that died a few years
ago and she is loving the gospel and is really studying it out. Like she
literally writes reports on the chapters and stuff we assign her. Who does
that?? It’s going very well with her and she has a lot of faith.
Also tomorrow Pres. Egbert is coming with the
Church Historian and we are going to have a conference so I am pretty excited
about that! The only bummer is Pres. Egbert decided to have interviews today,
which basically ruined our P-day....
But that’s about it for this week!
