On Thursday, I will be out one year; that is quite something! And I am here with two of the elders I was with a year ago--very strange.
I´d like everyone to know I am fine. We are having an excellent time and excellent lessons.
We had a lesson with Dania (part member family, 25 year old that likes anime). That was really great. She accepted a baptismal date (apparently a first), and everyone was super happy. At the end, the assistants showed up and brought a cake. It turns out that the family had scheduled a birthday party for one of the assistants immediately after our lesson, so we got cake. It almost made us late for the baptism that was scheduled that night, and it was also on fast Sunday, so it complicated things a little bit.
On Sunday we contacted two large families (one that has 8 people over the age of eight and one with 9), and they accepted what we shared. We are going to see if they want to progress. The family of eight wants to go to church and is pretty excited. To top that one off, the older son who does not live with them already goes to this church. Also, we met a guy from California that is here. He does not know how long he will be visiting family. He speaks English perfectly, and he wants us to teach him in English. That will be interesting because we have never done that before.
Barbara tried to return the Book of Mormon to us. It seems like she does not want us to visit anymore. :(
We visit lots of other people, and basically everyone else is cool.
Oh! Gloria's daughter Rosa? We think she gave birth yesterday. We will know for sure by next week.
But, basically, that's what I have to say for this week. All of this is worth it!
Love you all.
Saludos, Amor, y Todo que te puedo ofrecer
