Week 21

This week was a grand one!!

-We had 9 investigators at church
-We had the training for new missionaries in Los Amates! (16 missionaries in the Elders house)
-President Crapo came to our Zone conference in Puerto Barrios and sang that ¨if you chance to meet a frown...¨ 
-We had interviews with the President in our house!
-Finished my first jar of Peanut Butter
-visited Quiriqua and the Castillo de San Felipe again!

First off, Christian and Maria:
They are a young couple that we met in Campos Nuevos! They came to church with a member family that lives near them! That was fantastic! They are also always so appreciative when we come by and teach them! They have a baptismal date for March 5th!

Saira:
She is 18 years old. We had been teaching her for some time, but we couldn´t ever get her to commit to come to church until this week, and SHE CAME!! And she talked to the Mission President's wife who was at church this week, and as we were leaving she told us that she is super excited to come back! And President Crapo asked her if she was preparing for baptism, and she told him that we are talking about that with her. She will have a baptismal date by the end of the week ;)

Roy and Wendolly:
THEY ARE GETTING BAPTIZED THIS WEEK!!! We are sooo excited for them! They really are on the road to long membership in the church! And Roy is still excited about starting to prepare for a mission!

José:
This week we had plans to have a lesson with him and another member in the group. We were traveling all day, and for no logical reason I was questioning why we were going to have a lesson with him with this Sister. But we went ahead and verified it, and went to the lesson. Let me just say, that was one of the best lessons we have had with a member. It made me a believer that missionary work is way better when members are included! José said at the end of the lesson, while crying, that this Hermana had answered his prayers and questions that he hadn´t told anyone.

Ponderizing: Jacob 3:1 I have given this as homework a lot this week as we have been focusing on prayer with our investigators.. The end of the verse is pretty direct, but it is a promise I won´t pass up! ;)

Love you all tons!
-Hermana Garrett
