Hey
everybody! Sounds like Thanksgiving was a blast! That’s good! We did
our own little party, I bought some meat and my comp bought some
sausages. So we had some tacos and stuff. It was delicious! We had a
good week here though we saw a huge miracle on Sunday. We had worked
hard all week trying to find a person that would progress and get
baptized in December. So we found some good people. And Sunday came and
we had passed by and prepared all of the investigators that we could on Saturday
and Friday, and on Sunday the couple we had been teaching were in
separate houses and had fallen asleep, so we passed by a bunch of
other people to bring to church. And we got to church and Ninosca
showed up the sister of a new convert who is sweet. So we had her and
then a kid walked in with his girlfriend and her little brother and they
sat next to me and I talked to them a bit and I shared my hymn book,
and after my comp asked their reference and after lunch we passed by and
we shared with them and their mom! And the mom was like ya! What do I
do to have to be baptized! And her kids accepted baptismal date too! So
they are preparing to get baptized the month of December! So I am way
stoked for them, and the boyfriend is a member and he has shared a
little bit with the family and the mom likes how he is because he
doesn’t smoke or drink and he’s good so she always sees how the gospel
blesses families! The Spirit was so strong in that lesson I was giddy
with energy after we left! So we are excited for them! And we gotta get
permission for Ninosca to be baptized from her
parents too so she can get baptized. So pray for her please! But the
weather is nice here. I got a little sick this week because the weather
changed and got all weird. It was sunny but the wind was blowing super
hard and it was freezing so I got a little sick but nothing bad. I’m
good now. Just ate a bunch of oranges.
I had to do a baptismal interview for an investigator of the other
Elders here in San Carlos. His name is Jorge he is the spouse of a
member. They got married so that he could get baptized, his name is
Jorge. He was super ready for baptism. He just wants to get married in
the temple as soon as possible. We had his baptism on Saturday morning
at like 9:30 because he had gotten off work and he lives out in the
farmland like 40 minutes so it would’ve been hard for him to go home and
come back. So it was a great service. I had to talk about the Holy
Ghost so that as great! It went real well!
But
it was a great week we found some great people. When I did the
interview I did a mini exchange with Elder Llontop who is from Peru. And
we found some great people that really wanted to be baptized. We were
walking down the street and Elder Llontop out of the corner of his eye
saw a kid on the stairs outside of his house and we contacted him and we
got in the house and before we started the kid was already crying. He’s
like 15. He has some problems with his parents they don’t really get
along but we shared with him for a bit and Elder Llontop shared a
personal story and he accepted a baptismal date it was a powerful
lesson. And we found another guy who accepted baptismal date. So we saw
some miracles during that mini exchange Elder Llontop is a stud of a
missionary!!So I hope everyone has a stellar week! I love you guys tons! Thanks for all of the prayers and love!!!
les quiero mucho!!!
