Well to start things off, I got a call from President on Saturday
telling me that I am training again! I was pretty excited. I was hoping
I would be able to train one more time before finishing. And here is
the best part. There are three natives and one Italian. Gaaaahhhh, I am trying
not to get my hopes up too high on the Italian, but it would be super
cool. No matter what though, I´m sure she will be great. I´m very
excited. I will go to pick her up in Málaga next Tuesday.
This week has been really good. Let´s see, we had a
¨Consecration Week.¨ It was being 100% obedient in everything. Just
kicking it up a notch. It was a great week for us. One cool thing that
happened was that we went to a member´s house named Juanita, and we
invited our investigator Magdalena over. Well, Juanita got really sick
really quickly and she couldn´t get out of bed. She asked for a blessing
so we called two men from the Ward and they came over and gave her a
blessing. Well, Magdalena got pretty emotional and asked if she could
have a blessing of comfort, and it went great! She told them that she
really wants to get baptized soon, it´s just that her husband won´t let
her. So we are just praying that her husband´s heart will soften. It was
a really cool experience though.
Yesterday was Mother´s Day here in Spain so we went
and visited a couple of the sisters who are alone. It was fun for us
because we didn´t want to bother people on a special day and they were
looking for people to be with. It was definitely a win-win situation.
We had a cool lesson with our investigator Antonia
as well. We have been teaching her a lot, but she has a past of kicking
the missionaries out when they bring up baptism so we have been
hesitant. Well, we got the guts up and asked her what was keeping her
from it and she explained that even though she reads all about why, she
just doesn´t see the necessity of being baptized. Then we asked why she
thinks people get baptized other than for the reason of being able to
live with God again and have the Holy Ghost. She said that she thinks it
is so that they can become closer to Jesus Christ. We asked her if that
is something she wants and she said of course it was. BAM! She still
didn´t agree to it, but she definitely thought more about it. She wants
to be closer to Christ and the next step to do that is baptism. It was a
good lesson with her.
Alright, well, that´s it for today. Happy Mother´s Day to all of you awesome moms! Have a wonderful week and thanks for everything!
