Apparently the people of san antonio are not as slow paced and laid back as I always imagined the people of the south to be. They are very fast-paced and business minded. Though I have spent a few days in the sticks and you can knock on the door and then not say anything for like ten seconds and it's still okay haha.
So the people we are teaching are pretty much the same as before, except for one person. We talked to this girl named Gio (short for Giovanna) at her door and she told us she had talked to missionnaries before, and she wasn't really interested and neither were her parents. Normally we'd just leave a pass along card, but this time specifically I felt to put our phone number on it before we left. Not five minutes later we got a text from her saying that her dad told her she needs to find christ, and she agreed to meet with us, for that is our speciality. The meeting hasn't happened yet because she was getting ready to go to the other side of town for a couple days, but it looks really good. So keep her in your prayers.
If anyone has any pointers for talking to people or door approaches or anything, that would be appreciated. Often you can just say that you're sharing a mesage about Christ and they'll be way open, but to really grab their interest and motivate them to act is different...
Thank you so much for all the love and support and help. I hope fathers' day was great. I'll talk to you next week. I love you.
Love
Elder Katzakian
