The Branch hadn't seen new investigators for so long, they practically attacked the Covarubia's when they came in. I think they met every single person in the branch. The members that live on their street are going to have an FHE (Family Home Evening) with them tonight. It's so nice when members do missionary work for us. There were also a few others there. We really used the "You have to come, It's Easter. That's like the two days everybody has to go to church Christmas and Easter."
This week I went on exchanges with an English Elder. We were talking with this lady and she let us come in and teach her a lesson. There are certain key phrases we use as transitions like asking them what is a prophet, or saying the name Joseph Smith. And a few times I would do it, look at my companion, remember he didn't speak Spanish, then keep on going. But I wanted to take a break somehow, so I had him read one of the scriptures.
Then later in the day we visited another person, and when we first got there I asked to use the bathroom, and the English missionary was left with only people that spoke Spanish. He tried talking to them by repeating what he heard me say which was "puedo ir al bano" Which means 'Can I use the bathroom?" Then they told him I was already in there, and asked him if he wanted to go in with me. Then he just stood there kind of confused and got a little red, and then they started laughing. Afterwards when I told him what everything meant he thought it was funny.
