Week #44
7/28/14
Hey Everyone!!
This past week was pretty awesome!! We ended the week meeting almost every
single one of our goals and we finished with one baptism!!
On Saturday we had the baptism of Carlos!! Hes a
really good guy! In total there were only 7 people who showed up to his baptism
which is very little but in the end i think it was more special for him and it
was a good experience for him!! The bishop was able to baptize him which was
really cool because Carlos looks up to the bishop! Calros will be a great member
of the church!!
This week we have been visiting Luz and she is ready to be baptized and had
her baptismal date for this Saturday but her sister went out of town and so we
moved the date back another week which is fine! I just hope that i will be here
for her baptism! Transfers are coming up the 12th of August and its likely that
i will have a change even though i dont want to get changed!! Oh well what
happens happens! If her sister doesnt come before i have changes i might miss
her baptism but thats alright! The missionaries get changed but in a way i think
it helps them to establish more friendship with the members! Its really
important that they can establish friendships with the members so that when the
missionaries go it doesnt hurt them that much!
We have also been visiting a youth whos name is Luis and hes really
cool too! Hes really good and hes progressing really well the only thing is that
he needs to attend church and so this week were going to go pick him up and so
hopefully he'll come! Other than that he understands everything really well and
wants to change which is the most important part! Hes also got 2 thumbs on his
left hand which is a little strange but kind of cool too! Haha!
We have been finding some new investigators this week that we really think
can progress because we really dont have that many people to teach right now! So
were relying a lot on the members to present us to their friends wo that we can
have more people to teach who are really going to progress because they have a
friend that will take them to church and sit with them and explain them whats
going on!
We are still visiting Gregori but he really isnt progressing very much...
Hes reading the Book of Mormon and asking us questions which is really good but
hes analyzing it more logically than spiritually.. Hes asisiting all the
activities of the church and everything hes basically a member but he doesnt
want to get baptized yet! Hopefully his time will come soon and he can gain a
testimony of the Book of Mormon! Thats the key for him! Also that there is a
living prophet that recieves revelation from God!
Other than that everythings going well! I know this church is true and that
there is a living prophet on the earth today and that Jesus Christ guides this
church today through his prophet and that when we follow the prophet we are
directly following Christ! Love you all! Have a great week!
Love,
Elder Jarman
