This week was a
super great week! We baptised a super awesome guy this week named
Gabriel! He is the one I talked about last week. He found us and
basically taught himself. He truly was so prepared to become a
member of the church. He wanted to buy his own church clothes and
everything, haha but he couldn’t find a tie so we gave him one of ours.
His mom is an inactive member in Texas, but she is super excited to
start going to church again!
This week I will have
transfers. I’m going to miss Rio Bravo a lot, especially the
investigators, but I am super excited to go to Camargo! It’s a little
area too. It is like 2 hours away from Rio Bravo. It will
be an awesome experience! My new companion his name is Elder Spencer.
He is from Utah, but I don’t remember where exactly.
Last week it didn’t rain
at all! It just like sprinkled all day when the hurricane hit Texas.
Like it was predicted to get exactly to Rio Bravo, but never did. I was
kind of excited, not gonna lie, but then it
didn’t even really rain. It’s so weird that it didn’t get here.
Also this week we had a
super awesome experience! We were trying to find this really cool lady
that we had been teaching before but then she had just disappeared and
we hadn’t been able to find her in like two
weeks. We were walking kind of close to her house and we felt that we
needed to pass by to look for her. So we changed around our plans to go
look for her. We get there and her boyfriend is there. He tells us that
they had broken up, and he had no idea where
she had gone. We were super sad and were trying to think of ways we
could find her, but we couldn’t think of anything. We just decided that
the Lord would help us find her if it is her time. We kept walking and a
little while later we see this lady outside
her house and we start talking to her and ask her if she had ever met
missionaries like us. She said no but that her sister had. We asked her
what her sister’s name was and it was totally the lady we were looking
for in the first place! It was so crazy how
we were guided to find that lady and now she and her sister are both
receiving the missionary lessons and are super excited!
We threw a surprise party
for one of the Elders that lives in our house and it was super fun. We
tricked him so good, he had no idea!
Good scripture about diligence and discipline Hebrews
12:11. “No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness
and peace for those who have been trained by it.” I found it studying this week! Good habits are hard to build but will always be worth it!
Miss you guys a ton, hope you have a great week!
