Hello everyone!
This was a wonderful week!
A lot of good cool things happened this week, because that it how it always is as a missionary. You have a lot of time to go and do good things and just help people. But the main thing I want to talk about it the baptisms me and my companion had this weekend!
So we baptized 2 people, their names are Maria and Dariana. They are sisters and they are amazing people who really are a miracle. MY companion found them contacting the change before I got here. They found them knocking on their door but they werent too interested so they taught them like 2 times then never went back. Then me and my companion went back my second week here in this area on a Saturday and invited them to church, and they came! So we started to teach them, and they recieved and accepted the gospel and came to church every week for the past 2 months and now they are baptized and confirmed members of the church. Maria last month even payed her tithing. They are very excited about the gospel and they are just miracles. I know that God prepared them to hear and accept the gospel. I will send some pictures too!
The mission is really hard. Their isnt a day that goes by that I dont feel like I am being stretched in some way. But the mission is also full of joy and learning and unforgettable experiences. I would not give up the mission experience for anything. I am so greatful to my Heavenly Father for the oppurtunity I have to be here and to serve these people. I know that when we serve others, we are only serving God. I love you all and hope you have an amazing week!
