Well this was a dandy week! We had a baptism on saturday
and i also baptized an invetigator of two other Elders in my district.
Almendra Chavez was baptized, she is the daughter of Hna Lijia and
the sister of jefry who we baptized about a month ago. Now the family is
complete! She has actually changed a lot in the past month or so that
she has been learning. She used to be somewhat of a bad child. A problem
for her for awhile was that she didnt think that she could be forgiven.
But she is all good now and is happy and her mom I think is more happy
than her. This week was kind of hard with my comp. He has really changed
the last 2 weeks. I dont
know what is going on. We went to the bank to get our transport money
and he
decided that he wanted to keep half of it for his personal transport
(when he doesnt feel like walking or if its hot outside.) I just kind
explained to him that thats not how the transport works and that the
money he has is sacred and is tithing of someone else and just using it
like its nothing is wrong. He tried to tell me his health is bad and his
legs hurt and he heard thats sign that your kidneys are bad? He just
kind of started murmuring like a child or like laman and lamuel. I just
told him look maybe you dont understand but you have a family or church
members paying 400 dollars a month so that you can be in the mission and
you need to respect this money as tithing and remember your legs are
for the lord right now. He just got upset mumbled some things under his
breath and got quiet. But its all good now. I just think he needs to
mature (even though hes 27) and I probably could be a little bit more
chill too. (maybe
walk slower?) Finally one of the family's that we have been teaching attended church this week. I think that with every lesson we had with
them this week I tied church attendance in. They are Denis and Gloria.
They are married so thats awesome! Were just working to put some baptism
dates down now. Funny story for this week, yesterday we were singing
the hymn while preparing the sacretment the lady leading the hymn just
stopped everyone and said we needed to start over again because no one
was following her! I was like what the!.... haha. Well I love you all have a fantastically magical week. Loves reg
