So this week really did fly by! Here are some highlights.
- Wendy and Bryan accepted a date to get baptized!! We are currently working on making sure that she isn´t legally married to her 1st husband (it could actually be a blessing in disguise, because we believe that the lawyer didn´t turn in the paperwork, and if that is the case we wouldn´t have to divorce her from her 1st husband, and we could just marry her and Bryan!!) It is the first time that I have hoped that someone isn't married! Crazy, right?? And this week we taught them lesson 1,2, and 3. Because remember, they went to church last week without us actually teaching a lesson! But they are just LOVING everything we teach! We are super excited for them.
- Yoselin: She is also doing great! She is 14 years old, and just such a light for her family! Her older sister got baptized about a year ago, but then passed away about 3 weeks ago due to a tumor in her brain. And well ever since Yoselin has been super interested in the church. We focused a lot on the Plan of Salvation, and Yoselin just loved it! She loves knowing that she can be with her sister again! Isn´t this gospel just the greatest?!
- So both of my companions have been sick this week, with different things, and on different days, so we spent some time in the house. Not much time, because we could still go out with some members. BUT it was super awesome on Friday because we had set a goal as a zone to meet our weekly standard before Friday night, and well we had had a rough week, but Friday night we went out and were able to do 50 contacts and find 9 new investigators in less than 2 hours! It was awesome! We were just going crazy and talking to everyone! And well since then the days have been really enjoyable! It made me really think about how much God loves us. And when we set inspired goals, and WORK we can reach our goals with His help.
Ponderizing: Alma 57:27 "Now this was the faith of these of whom I have spoken; they are young, and their minds are firm, and they do put their trust in God continually."
I love this. (I´m still young right?! :) ) But really, I am so amazed by the youth these days. And well I like to think about how they will just keep becoming stronger and stronger!!
Love you all!!
