Sadly I wasnt able to have a second birthday baptism, but we have 2 people right now who I am very sure will get baptized in the next 3 weeks! I guess with changes being announced tomorrow, I will see if I will be here for them!
We had just a busy week with lots of lessons as well!! Also, my birthday went quite well! The hermano who was conducting said that he was going to announce it was my birthday until the stake president came! jaja He kinda chickened out then, but it was still funny when he told us that he had it written on the plans! jaja They also gave me some brownies and we had lunch with Hermana Natalia, who just got baptized and she gave us cake and I got to take a bigole bite out of it with out anyone tryin to smash my face, so I just took big bite! jaja and to end the day, I went by our investigators whos son, also had his birthday on sunday!!! They were pretty shocked when I told them that my mom and my sister also have the sme birthday! jaja I tihnk it shocks everyone, even me sometimes! jaja What are the odds!?! jaja And just to make everything better, it was probably the prettiest winter day! It seemed like summer, with the sun and no clouds in the sky!!!
We also were pleased to share with Rocío who came to church again with her mom and her grandma! When we went to share with her, she told us that she has really been trying to share with her boyfriend who just hasnt been interested. She told us however that with her desires to have a stronger testimony of the book of mormon, and so we told her to read and pray everyday! And this week she told us that she did it!!! and she got emotional as she told us that she really felt that the things she read were exactly what she needed to hear. That God really was listening! I LOVE when I can see the conversion of others!!! Its just so cool!!! and she is already a member, but she doesnt remember anything, so she is learning everything from scratch and its just awesome!!! I love it!!!
Amazing how God blesses those who do their best to complete with the commandments! Have you ever felt that way, that God was literally talking with you through the words in the book of mormon? This week, as you read, pray that God will show you that the words are true. and look for the answers that he has for you. When you need to talk to God, pray. When you want an answer, read the scriptures. I know that it really works! I know that God loves us and wants to answer us! I hope that you may all feel the same!! Loves to everyone nad happy 4th of July to everyone!!!
