And this week was full of it! (sorry for not writing last week, my bad.) These past weeks were great for our investigators, they are really getting into all the ward activities, especially the English classes and our new piano class! It is super awesome to have the ward helping with bringing in all the people learning about the church with great useful activities! This last week we were also able to progress a lot in particular with hermano Manuel. His dad is actually elder Taylor's convert from the other side of San Luis, and it was interesting to hear how when his dad was baptized he was totally atheist and against the church. But now just a month later he has changed completely and is very humble and listening for the impressions of the spirit.
He himself said from our first contact that he wasn't prepared at the time of his father's conversion, but now with sufficient time the lord has prepared him! How incredible! He needs help overcoming some confidence and addiction issues, so he could really use your prayers!
Anyways, this last Saturday we were able to go and preach with the young men and women in a pueblito named Cerritos, a place where the church has never been before! But in the end it was so rewarding, we felt as if we were missionaries of old, truly preaching the gospel to the people! But in the end so many great blessings came from the activity; in fact too many to tell here!
But I can witness that the Lord does truly prepare people, even if they have never even seen the church or a missionary before! Anyways, this next week I'll finally be getting my own companion, he's named Elder Aquino, from Oaxaca. He is a super cool dude, it's gonna be great!
Thanks for all your individual love!
