Sooooo really quick because I don't have much time left.
This week was super cool. We had a lot of success working with members and even
though it didn't feel like things went the way we wanted, the results showed.
We were able to bring 4 investigators to church on Sunday and this coming
Sunday Maria's daughter, Yarielis, is going to get baptized.
With Maria we've had some really cool experiences. This week
she found some bogus info on the internet about the church but with her strong
testimony she was able to really just push all that garbage aside. So that was
a huge win for us! The second thing was when one night Elder Munoz and I both
really felt that while we work with Maria to get her married, that we should
baptize her daughter. So we went and we talked with Maria and it turns out that
she had felt the same thing! She felt like she wants her daughter to have the
blessings of the gospel. And then she invited her other daughter to come to
church on Sunday and she came! It was really cool. She has such a strong
testimony.
Last week we found a less active lady and her non-member
granddaughter. And it was really special this week because the Primary had an
activity for the kids and she went and loved it and we got her super excited to
be baptized and she accepted the date for the 13th and everything. So we passed
her over to the sisters and soon she'll also be baptized. It was really cool
just how much she changed when we began to talk about baptism and stuff. The
gospel changes lives!!
Today we had a zone activity, and we got to go bowling as a
zone and it was really fun. It's crazy that all these elders that I've known
since the start of my mission are heading home soon! And then I'll be home in
like 7 months almost!
On Sunday we ate like pigs, a lot of members invited us over
and so we ate lunch, dinner, and more dinner with root beer floats! We had to search all over San Juan for Root Beer, apparently
it really doesn't exist here on the island. What a shame!
Ummm that's about it. We're just really excited for the next
few weeks because finally the district will be baptizing here in San Juan.
The church is true and I love it.
Love you all!
