Que pasa mis causitas. This week was one of the best weeks of my mission. So much reward. And I know I was called to Bolivia for exactly what happened this last week.
The familia medrano got baptized and it was awesome. It kind of slipped by me honestly I wish I could go back and do it again. There were so many people including Gloria and her daughter Karla. Gloria is the one we found thanks to the spirit last week and has already come go church twice. The baptism was so sweet and I couldn't stop smiling. Please pray for the familia medrano and the people in our ward so that they can continue to help them on the covenant path.
Gloria's daughter was skeptical about church at first because she's catholic(not true), but this girl really took her in at church yesterday and they exchanged numbers and after Karla was getting super hyped about all the activities the church was having. My comp asked her if she wanted to be baptized with her mom and she said yes. The day seriously couldn't have been better.
We also threw a birthday party for the little girl that was baptized. We were trying to teach her on her birthday 2 days before the baptism and she was not having it. Her mom later told us that she had to tell her she wasn't going to be able to give her anything for her birthday because she didn't have any money. Me and my comp dipped on a dime and copped her a cake balloon and a doll. It was probably one of the best days of my life.
We had a noche de hogar last night and this 80 year old guy had the lesson so homie reached over and grabbed his book of Mormon and pulled out a knife🤣. Knife bookmark I guess. Wrong type of feasting.
We also contacted a lady this week who told us she would not be coming to our church because she had actually formed her own church with her family🤙🏼. That was pretty surreal and unintelligent.
At that noche de hogar this guy read a verse from 3rd nefi 18 that talks about the sacrament. It says something like, and if they always remember me, they will have my spirit to be with them. Im not sure why but it hit me super hard. I know I'm a missionary but am I truly thinking of Christ in all things? Do i always remember Him? I invite you to think of those questions so that you can always have His spirit to be with you.
