The lord will always bless you for your efforts

September 26, 2016  
This week was great! It's funny how the mission works, sometimes  Anziano Anderson and I will find all day and talk to everyone with no luck then we'll sit on the bus at 9pm and someone like Mandie will come up to us and ask us where our church is so she can go on Sunday haha. Anyway she and her husband came and she really liked it! We passed her to the sisters and they are teaching her, she really looks like she is progressing! But she will move back to get married in New York in about a month. So that was really cool. She is from London and speaks English so that's cool too! Then on the way home from church someone else came up and asked us about the church! He said he's been to a lot of churches but he has always felt like something was missing, so we think we have the right message for him! Haha His name is Dias and is from India so we are going to be teaching him in English which  will be nice! It's amazing seeing miracles like these especially after long long days of finding. It's just another way that this mission strengthens my testimony. The lord will always bless you for your efforts.
  One day this week my companion was sick so we stayed in for the first half of the day. But it was really good because I found the book "Our Search for Happiness" by M. Russell Ballard, its really good, he does a great job of keeping things interesting while giving good spirit filled information. I'm learning so much out here on the mission and I love it. It's really cool having a life devoted to loving the gospel and serving others; I'm learning stuff that I never would have if I wouldn't have been here. It's great.
Pday today was probably my favorite so far! Me, Anziano Anderson and 4 other Anziani and Sorelle rented bikes at Villa Borghese and road all around Rome for a couple of hours. It was so cool, we hit up all the big tourist spots in like 30 min haha then we did some trail riding in the park it was so fun! 
Love you all that thank you so much for the prayers! Have a great week
Ciao- Anziano Ruiz
