Hey everyone!!!!!
So Dylan is still on date but our bishop asked us to move
his baptism to July 9 for different reasons so he is still doing
great..... His Mom, Diane, isn't - they got in a fight and doesn't want
to be in his way so will try to teach her again after Dylan is
baptized!
This week was great though we were able to make Rosio
and Alandra new investigators! Their brother, Juan, was baptized back in I
believe September and he was just deployed and so his sisters are living with
his wife (Victoria has been a member for her whole life but just barely coming
back into activity!) and kids to help. They saw Juan get the Aaronic
Priesthood two weeks ago right before he left and a young women invited them to
young women's which they loved!!!!! they are 15 and 16 and are so elect! We
invited them to be baptized if they come to know its true and they said they
would.... Sister Kramer and I didn't feel right about setting a date just yet
but they are so elect its great!!!!!
They love church too and say their week is better and
they just feel peace when they are there and how everyone is just so nice. They
have been to other churches before but never like ours. So in young women's
Sister Kramer and I taught the restoration to them and then last night answered
some questions they had about it. Rosio asked us what the Gospel of Jesus
Christ was and so we told her and started to teach lesson 3 and then I had to
leave to talk to our district leader for numbers and when I came back they were
talking about the Plan of Salvation quickly and baptisms for the dead..... so
we almost covered all 3 lessons in the first real lesson. (last Saturday we
talked about the Book of Mormon and gave them each a copy and when we went over
it was cute Alandra said she was bored and so started t read it! she was
confused but felt peace!) they are so cute!
Well I'm so thankful to have experiences like this on my
mission! Lessons like these especially when the spirit is super
strong makes missionary work worth it! Love you all and hope you have a
spectacular week!
