this
week is transfers! i am being transfered to Apucarana, a smiller city about an
hour away from londrina. its weird to think that it will be my last area. but,
i have a lot of time left, i just got to find a lot of people that want to be
baptized!!!
all of missionary work comes down to this, finding people to teach.
to do a contact, i will always just invite someone to go to church,
if the person says "no" or "i already go to a church so i cant
visit yours" then i dont even continue.
if a person says "maybe" or "who knows" then i ask a
question that makes them think. it could be anything from "what happens
after death?" to "Who is God?" to "why are there a lot of
churches when there is only one God?" i just say whatever pops into my
head (and hope that it was the Spirit that put it there) after about 30 seconds
of conversation you can tell if someone is interested or not, when you will ask
if the person wants us to go to their house on a specific date and time to
share the message.
if a person says "sure" or "where is your church?" then we
talk about where the church is and ask if we can mark a day to pass by their
house and share the message.
if a person doesnt mark a day and hour specific then it means that they are not
interested in the moment.
and thats about all i do, instead of saying like "how are you?" or
"good afternoon" to people on the street we just say "wanna go
to church on sunday?"
sounds a little crazy but its the best way i´ve found to filter people
i love you all! i´m a little sad to leave the city of londrina, but excited to
see how Apucarana is
até mais!
