We went to a place called Santa Rosa, it's 4 hours from Guayaquil. We went to go work with some missionaries and split into divisions. We went on a bus and it looked like everyone was kind of down. We thought everyone needs a little lift, so I asked my companion, “hey bro, have you ever sang in a bus before, because we sing all the time in buses!?” So I asked the missionary by me, “Do you have your hymn book?” and he’s like, “yeah.” I was like, “ok good! Follow me!” I went to the front of the bus and asked the bus driver to turn off the music, and this gringo missionary and I asked them (the people on the bus..) what was their favorite christmas hymn, and so we sang Angels We Have Heard on High! It was very neat! Then we went and the bus driver asked OTRA? Which means another? We sang another and then we invited the entire bus to be baptized and go to church, it was a really special experience for the new missionary; but I have and do those types of things every day! If I don’t sing on a bus I preach and invite to the people on the buses that have 40 maybe 50 on them. Some people don’t listen, but most do. I really hope we can change lives! I’m just trying like it says in the scriptures INVITE ALL!! So that’s what we’re doing! I am giving my all to the Lord!
