This week was another extremely fast one, we were focusing on getting Sherlynne ready for baptism; and every time when we asked her why she would live a commandment or even choose to get baptized, her answer was always "so I can get to heaven"- pretty direct answer, but nothing wrong with it! In the end Alexis, her brother who was baptized three weeks ago was able to baptize Sherlynne which was super cool! It was so spiritually rewarding to be able to watch a family become more complete and unified in living the gospel!
We also had a very unique/cool experience when a group from the U.S. called book of Mormon central came and gave a presentation to the whole stake on Wednesday. I was able to translate for one of the founders of the group, and it was just so cool to see all the factual evidence there really is for the Book of Mormon. Of course, a true testimony can only come through the spirit through personal study and prayer; but it was very great to be able to see with more clarity how the Book of Mormon really actually took place in these lands with the real ancestors of these people!
Anyways, to cap it all off we received a reference of a man who the missionaries were teaching in Canada who moved back here to San Luis and the actually came to church on his own before we had a chance to teach him and brought his wife as well, and they had a super great time!
Unfortunately good things can´t last forever, and I´m leaving Elder Penteado here in Fresnos and going to Industrias, another ward in the same stake here in San Luis, should be an adventure!
Anyways, lots of blessings testifying of the lord here, thanks so much for all your spiritual support, I love each and every one of you!
