Wow, what a
week! I probably start most of my emails like that but seriously, what a week!
We had un MONTON of miracles happen this week!!!
To start off the
week we had a zone meeting on Tuesday and Hna Anderson and I were in
charge of teaching to subjects of acting in faith and what it means to be a
successful missionary. I was soooo nervous but it's as soon as it was our turn
to speak, all of the nerves went away and we were able to teach everything
without too many mistakes!
After the
meeting we went to our investigator, and talked to her about moving her
baptismal date to the 21st and she was all for it!! Her only reservation is
that she cut her hair super short and she's been using a wig, waiting for
her hair to grow.... Yes, a wig. We explained that she didn't need to
wear her wig and that she seriously looked better without it. At the end of the
lesson she was all for having a baptism on the 21st.
On Wednesday we
were teaching my recent convert, Joan, and her 13 son who originally had a date
for the 21st. We had a fun interactive lesson at a park by their house and at
the end I explained that Edward ( the son) had been taught all of the lessons
and could be baptized on Saturday if they wanted. Joan looked at me
and said "Pues no tenemos planes por este Sabado" (we don't have
plans for this Saturday). And they then accepted to move the date to Saturday
the 14th!!! We had to rush to get everything arranged but by the end of the day
we had everything set up!
Thursday morning
we got a call from our investigator saying that she didn't know if she wanted to get
baptized anymore. We were so confused but we passed by later with a member. Her
worry was still about her wig!! The member explained that she looked better
without the wig and she gave her advice about relaxing and coloring her
hair.
Friday to Saturday we
had intercambios and the baptismal interview of Edward... Well his interview
was scheduled for Friday but Joan called me an hour before and told
me that they were walking into a movie and wouldn't be able to make it....I
started frantically coordinating with the district leader and we were able to
move the interview to Saturday morning. Saturday morning
came around anddddddd HE PASSED! We had a beautiful baptism and many of the
youth in the ward participated. It was a great way to end such a crazy week!
Sorry for the
novel! I love you guys and I hope you have a great week!!
