It's
been another HOT week in Guadalupe. The weeks are flying by, we're already
halfway through the cambio (transfer)!! On Wednesday we had a lesson with an
investigator who's a little older and hasn't had much education so it takes a
bit for him to understand. But we were teaching the plan of salvation and he asked,
"I can really see my parents again?" it was so awesome to be able to
tell him that yes, he will get to see his parents again! He accepted a
baptismal date but then didn't come to church...but I’m confident we'll be able
to help him progress. Yesterday we had one of our investigators, Julia, come to
church for the first time! She came with her kids, and some of her husband’s
cousins are in our branch, so she already knows people! And she even
participated in Sunday school and relief society! She also came to the
broadcast of the first presidency Christmas devotional! She really wants to
learn and she is reading and praying and waiting for her answer. She will be so
solid once she gets her answer, I’m really excited for her. We had 5
investigators and 2 less actives come to the Christmas devotional, it was
awesome! Great messages and beautiful messages, there's no way they didn't feel
the spirit. Tito continues to prepare for his baptism on the 17th and he is
amazing. He already fasts and pays tithing, and just wants to do whatever God
wants him to do. We still need to teach him quite a bit, but we're really
excited for him. The Guadalupe fiestas continue, and today, a bunch of people
will go up the big hill to the virgin statue, and everyone's all excited about
it.
It’s
crazy to think that I have been gone for 6 months! The days fly by, and I am so
glad to be here. It’s so hot all the time, but I’m so glad to be serving the
people of Guadalupe and my Heavenly Father. I'm thankful for this Christmas
season and the opportunity we have to remember Jesus Christ and follow His
example of service. I love you and miss you all!
