Well folks, this week was a pretty great one! It was also one full of goodbyes! :( BUT HEY I have a new companion, and she is super!!! I have only spent like 20 min with her, but can already tell that it is going to be a great 6 weeks!!! She is from California, and her name is Hermana Elizondo!
Well as for this week, we had Concilio (Leadership Council) on Tuesday, so that was pretty great to go to the capital and be able to see old friends!! It was also one of the most powerful meetings I have been in on my mission. I sure do love being able to listen to President Crapo. He is such an inspiring man.
We also had divisions this week and were able to see a lot of miracles! We were able to commit 2 new people to get baptized! That was awesome! One is Carlos, he is the brother of Jorge!
Ohhhhh and speaking of Jorge, on Monday while we were in the Capital, we arranged for Jorge and his sister Olga to go to a Family Home Evening with the Branch President and they went and had a blast! The wife of President Paz teaches seminary and after the FHE she invited them to go this week, and guess what, THEY WENT EVERY SINGLE DAY!!! And one day it was just them 2 and their other non member friend that went to seminary!!!! How awesome is that! And then they BOTH went to church on Sunday! They are just wonderful!
Well they have been like the highlight of the week. :)
Well today I said goodbye to 3 of my 4 companions :( It was a little rough. But I was also able to see Hermana Geronimo, so that was also great!
Ponderizing: D&C 128:15 I love this scripture because it reminded me of how we need the temple ordinances just as much as those who have passed on. We can become better people by going to the temple and doing the work for others.
Well love you all so much!!!
