The family we baptized this week |
Familia y Amigos,
This week has been a really good one,
I have seen that as my attitude has changed, I have seen a lot of
results. This week was a week of miracles, I´ll let you know what
happened.
On Wednesday we were contacting and I
had one of the worst lessons ever. I felt like I explained things so clearly,
but the lady just wouldn´t open up her heart. I said to my companion,
lets leave this barrio (neighborhood). We decided to contact one more
house before we left. So the lady answers and is like, I´m mormona,
actually I’m investida (endowed)... I thought "no way, that’s cool!"
Well to make it even cooler, she let us in and we started talking, and
turns out she has a son that is 9. She continued telling us that she and
her husband (an ex presidente de rama – former branch president) had just
decided that they were going to stay here in San Marcos instead of going back
to Granada where they are from. They had talked to the branch president
there on Saturday telling him that they were going to look for the missionaries
to get their son baptized. So he has a fecha (date) for this Saturday,
pray for him please! His name is Ernesto.
Thursday was a little rough, but
there was still a miracle. We had correlacion misional (missionary correlation
meeting) which took way longer than it should have and we decided to go to this
super far part of the area where there is an investigator that the missionaries
have been teaching forever, she knows everything. So we went over and she
let us know that she was going to be breaking up and leaving her husband.
He is a drunk and they are living in fornication so it was the only thing
holding her back. She is also for this weekend, keep her in your prayers.
On Friday we got a call from an old
investigator asking if he could get baptized on Saturday, too bad he had 0
times in church. He didn’t end up going on Sunday anyway, we will see
what happens with him.
Saturday we baptized a complete
family, they were a reference from the first counselor here in the Bishopric,
he helped us to teach them and everything, they are pilas (awesome). I’ll
send a pic.
On Sunday I went and did divisions
with some sisters to help them out in their area and then did some interviews
for Elder Nave.
I hope all of you have a great
Christmas, I love you tons. You are all in my prayers and I hope you all
enjoy this great time of the year. Keep it Real!!
