HEY what's up everyone.
Without a doubt this has been one of the best weeks I have
had in my mission. Ok so for about a month we have been teaching a lady
called Artemisa and for like a 2 months we have been teaching a lady called Estrella
they both are awesome. Artemisa was soooo ready for the gospel in her life and Estrella
as well but Estrella wanted to get to know the church a little more before
getting baptized.
About 2 weeks ago we went with Artemisa and we asked her how
she felt about getting baptized and she said that she was really ready. a
little nervous but ready. So we got super happy after that lesson and we went
with Estrella right afterwards and I remember having the perfect plan all mapped out in my head. I
was going to invite Estrella to the baptism of Artemisa so she could see how we
baptize in this church and the next Sunday would be fast and testimonies so I
thought that it would be perfect push to get Estrella baptized on the 14 of September.
So we visited Estrella and I proposed my idea to her reassuring
that she would feel confident and prepared to get baptized on the 14th. She didn't
say anything for a second and in this moment my heart was beating like a 10000
miles an hour when she said, " I
think I'm ready now". She didn't like the idea of getting baptized on the
14th she wanted to do it on the 7th along with Artemisa.
I screamed out of happiness and gave her a double high five
hahaha. They both got baptized on the 7th and it was such a beautiful baptismal
service. They both shared their testimonies and Artemisa was crying out of
joy.
During my mission I noticed something. Every time I leave an
area I always see the blessing like right before I leave. Like if God was
thanking me for the work I did in the area. Now that I'm almost leaving
the mission I'm seeing great marvelous blessings every day and Artemisa and Estrella
definitely were one of them.
I still have a lot of work to do and I'm excited to do it! Love
you all! See you soon!
