HI FAM!!!!
how is everybody????!! love you all!!!!
This week was an adventure! On Tuesday, we were meeting with two investigators that have been progressing quite nicely we asked them to be baptized! Both responded with a yes and have been attending several church activities! It is a father and son (Jose Luis Leocadio Hernandez and Cristian) they have been making church a priority in their life and it is so cool to see how it blesses them with their lives. Cristian is going to be baptized next Saturday, hopefully, but his father needs to be divorced then get married again to be baptized. It will be difficult but with the Lord all things are possible. Serving a mission is truly such an amazing way to become closer to God and help others have this joy and peace. I know that this church is the true church of Jesus Christ. That Heavenly Father loves each and every single person here on earth, and that the gospel can help every one of them. If you need help in your life to remember God is there for you and he wants to help you. Learn how to receive personal revelation. It can be such a great help in your life.
So, on Friday we had to clean out the font to prepare for a baptism from San Augustine (Shania). The font here in Guerrero has not been used in over a year in a half. Elder Cruz and I started to clean it and we found several spiders including a tarantula the size of my fist! It freaked me out. We tried to clean the best we could with just water, but we couldn’t get all the stains out or even most of the stains. So, we had to start filling it, so it would be ready for the baptism. While Elder Cruz cleaned, I also worked on activities for my English class that I will be giving tomorrow. I am super excited to start teaching English, hopefully, we will be getting new investigators from it! Anyways the baptism was extremely cool. Before we opened the font, we knew that it would not look super good, so we added blue fish dye to the water to make the water look better, but it still looked a little dirty. We had the ordinance and I was able to be a witness for it. It was so cool to be a part of that ordinance. After Shania was baptized, I introduced her to Jose and Cristian. As I was talking with Cristian, I tried to listen to what Jose and Shania were talking about and I heard her say, “When I was baptized, I saw a blue light.” It took all my strength to not start laughing. I’m pretty sure she saw the blue dye....... hahaha but yeah.
Now there is a reason for why in the white handbook it says you should not fool around. While we were doing companion study we both had to go to the bathroom. Elder Cruz and I started to race to the bathroom. He, being closer, made it first to the bathroom and started to close the door. When he closed the door, I put my hands up to push back on the door. What I forgot is that there is a glass pane on this door, and my hand went straight through it. As my hand went through it my hand got a little cut up. But I am totally fine! Thanks for all the love and support you guys are great!!!!!
Love you all!
