Well this week turned out to be pretty good:
1. So
this last Tuesday we did another Open area activity where we were
assigned to be with a missionary and go to an area which is neither of
your areas. So I went with Elder Mabalot (don`t have a picture yet.
Sorry) But he is from the Phillipines and we went to an area where there
are usually Hermanas. We were there for about 3 hours and we found a
ton of people for the sisters to work with. I am going to get a update
later about how all of them were.
2. Yesterday
we had an activity with all of the converts here in Vitarte. Pretty
much the stake presidency talked about the adaption that the converts
are going though in their new life as members of the church. At first
when my companion and I showed up there was only about like 25-30 people
there. But as the time went by more and more people came in and by the
time we were ending I looked around and we had pretty much a ward from
them.
Well this week we had the blessing of
having two baptisms (My companion`s first baptisms!) and their names are
Rossita and Victor. About 6 or 7 months ago Rossita got like super sick
and I think it got to the point that she almost died. But she eventually
recovered and started to serve God. She started to go to many different
churches trying to find the right one. She used to be an alcoholic and
she eventually dropped that habit. Then after about 4 or 5 months of
doing that we came into the picture and started to help her with
everything else and last week her an her son got baptized and are now
members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
love ya,
Baptisms!
