This week was full of a ton of miracles!!!
We had 2
investigators in church! We actually had 4 but two of them are kids under 18
and they have to have a baptism permission slip to count as attendance. BUT the
two people that we had are way cool!!! One girl is Cintia Corazon. She’s a 19
year old girl that my comp contacted with her old comp like 3 months ago but
they never went to see her! So we went back to visit her and she is AWESOME. She
is so willing to listen and learn and she accepts everything! Her only doubt is
about baptism because she was baptized in the Catholic Church, but we are
helping her to understand that it needs to be done with the priesthood and that
baptism is not complete without the confirming of the holy ghost. She stayed at
church for the first two hours and really enjoyed it!!! We will go back to
teach her tomorrow (:
The other
lady is literally a miracle. So we have been invading the area of the elders
hahaha literally everyone is like a single mom there so we have a lot of cool
investigators there hahaha it’s really funny actually. but we were walking to
visit one of these single moms, when some guy in his motokar pulls up and says
that he’s a member and that he has a referal for us, so we ask him who and he
points to the passenger in the back!! An older lady named Mercedes. He said
that they are dating and that he wants her to know the church. So we got an
appt with her and went the next day. Well when we visited her she said that
years back she had been praying to know the true church and missionaries came
to her house and she started attending the church with her then husband, but
later her hubby decided that he was done with investigating the church and they
never went back! She really is the biggest sweetheart though! She came to
church even though she woke up sick with a cold, but she LOVED IT. She felt the
spirit very strongly in the second hour when we watched a video about how the BOM
helps us in our daily life and with our daily tests and trials!! And she asked
when she could be baptized!!! Wait what?? So today we are going to visit her and
get her a date for March (:
We also have
been teaching Miluska and she is gonna get baptized on the 11th of March. she’s
super excited(: and we are teaching the family of less actives who’s kids need
to get baptized and they have a date for the 11th as well!! We have a ton of
people right now with a lot of potential so I’m pretty excited for this
upcoming month (:
Just really
feel like the Lord puts us in the right place at the right time. He knows what
is best for us and for OTHERS. Everyone in our life, whether they leave or they
stay, is for a reason. And we can make an impact on others, as well as learn
and become a better person for ourselves. Just appreciate the people in our
lives, and try to put everything in God’s hands, because He knows the reason for
every trial and He is also the only one who knows what else is waiting for us
just around the corner - the warm sun always follows the gloomy rain.
Love you
guys!
