Hey Everyone!
This week was fantastic!!! Hermana Chamorro and I
worked hard and met the majority of our goals which was awesome. Also sorry
because I'm a little short on time. This morning Mamita Amanda from Pimientos
took us to the dunes and we went sandboarding! So much fun! I feel like I just
got back from the beach though. With sand everywhere.
This week we had intercambios with Caldera and I was able to
work with Hermana Palomino in Maray. We had a good intercambio together and
were able to find lots of new investigators which was great.
We also got all moved out of Pimientos finally! It was lots
of work and we had to take a few doors out to get things into the apartment but
I'm just glad its over.
We are finding lots of people who are realy receptive here
in Maray which is exciting. We met Elli this week, an investigor that Hermana
San Martin left behind. She is great and really excited to be baptized! We were
able to talk to her about repentance this week and keeping the Sabbath holy
because she works on Sunday morning and hasn't been coming to church but we
talked to her and she decided to talk to her boss and tell her she cant work on
Sundays! We are going to call her tonight to see how it went. But...she lives
with one of her best friends and he isn't receptive and doesn't want to listen
but they can't be living together even if they aren't dating or anything if she
wants to be baptized....Elli also went with us to a baptism this week and she
told us she felt the spirit really strongly and knows she needs to be
baptized.
We also saw lots of progress in Gladys this week. On
Saturday we went to her house and had once (dinner). Gladys has been really sick and as
we were teaching our lesson she ended up passing out. When she woke up she
started to tell us everything that has been going on in her life and all the
reasons why she wasn't sure she wanted to be baptized and it was a pretty odd
situation but the spirit was able to enter the room and we were able to resolve
all her doubts. Before this lesson Gladys had been very closed off. The Lord
works in mysterious ways...but now she is excited and also progressing to her
baptism on the 4th!!!
I'm excited to be here in Maray and there is so much
potential!!!! I love you all so much and hope you have a great week!
