This last week was so much fun because this upcoming saturday we are
having our first baptism! she is so great her name is Deborah she has
been going to church in bolivia for like a year and no one as asked her
about why she was there or anything. And then when she moved to chile
for work she found the church nearby and we met her this last sunday and
have taught her all week and then on friday she asked us about baptism
and when it was ok that she got baptized. That next morning the zone
leaders had a baptism interview and on sunday we announced her baptism
this next saturday. I am just really excited for her and really think
she will be such a great benefit to the ward here. We also have 3 other
fechas for baptism in the upcoming weeks but were struggling to get the 3
to commit to follow some of the steps. For instance Leslie this sweet
girl who lives with a family who is active and her boyfriend was a
member she is so hard and does not want to follow the law of chastity
and were trying to explain to her that it is next murder one of the
worst sins ugh! then we have gerrardo he is super good he has come to
church every week and we have a fecha for him im not to worried about
him he is following everything. Then we have tiffany she is really great
but she works so much to support her two kids that she doesnt have time
to meet with us very often only like 1-2 a week it is really hard. Then
we have javiera who says she will do things and then blocks us out for
like 4 days and then we ask if she is doing it and she acts like she
never heard or learned any of it. UGH its really hard sometimes because i
wish that people didnt have agency haha. Although i know the lord his
allowing me to learn and grow from it each and every day and i truly
love it.
This last couple days for you all sound preety great i
cant believe everything that has happened i am so excited for gracie
this moment ahead is going to change her whole life now and after. Also
wish boston happy birthday I love that little boy so much. I still think
its so awesome how big of a tourist attraction hayden is with his iron
man suit and he needs to make boston one. Also mom that microsoft guy
sounds really interested in our church you should be the one to tell
him.
Now for my moms question about service during the
week. We dont have a day set a side for it but we look for moments
throughout the week to help the ward to grow and love us alot and the
people we try to help out randomly who need it like on friday we stopped
and changed this ladys tire we got her number and challenged to her to
church and showed she showed for the sacrament but then left and we are
going to check on her tommorrow but we try our best to help the people
the best we can in any way we can.
I love you all so much and hope you have a good upcoming week cause i know i will serving the lord.
