This week has been really good!!! Really filled like always with a lot of miracles!!! This week I want to tell you a little bit more about the family that there pictures is attached to this!!!
They are a miracle!!! Really like 3 years ago one of there sons was bauptized and then his little brother and for the 1st year the missionaries taught all of his family but they didn't do anything his parents weren't married and always felt like the missionaries only wanted to bauptise them for numbers so they never where all that excited to do anything!! For awhile the missionaries have been working on gaining their trust and so that they understood that we just want to help them!! But they have been really tough!!! Well when I got here the missionaries where just gaining their trust!! And it was great, we where able to help them understand that all that we want is for there family to be eternal!!! Oh I forgot to say their son that was bauptised is in the mission! When he left for the mission his brother got bauptized like 4 months into his mission and then his other bother and then his little sister!! and so only the parents weren't members!! Well we helped them a little bit more and then.... they told us that they are getting married on Friday and then bauptized Saturday!! And this was like 3 weeks ago!!!
Well they are doing so good!! Really it is so great they were able to talk with there son and they told us that he didn't think that when he left they would all get bauptized but every single one of them has!!! It is amazing!! And yesterday the dad received the priesthood!!! Lets just say that there wasn't a single dry eye in the bishops office!!! Really it was so great!! After we had lunch with them and all that they would do was thank us!! It was amazing!! They both said we never thought that is would happen... really we never thought our whole family would be members of the church!! They really are a miracle family!!!
This week we had comp. exchanges and it was good!! We had a great time and I was able to work with a sister that is great!! And I got to see some missionaries that I worked with before which was great!!!
We have a new ward mission leader and he is so excited to be working which is nice we are having a lot of new activities and it is super fun!! The ward is growing a lot!!
Yesterday we walked into church and there was a man that we didn't know!! Hugo, we started talking with him and he told us that like 3 years before he had been coming to church with a cousin and then he never came back. And one of his goals for this new year was to have a better relationship with God so he just showed up!!! And he loved church!! Crappy part.... he lives in the area of the elders!! haha but that's okay!!! Yesterday in church we had a FHE and he came and told us that he felt so great and that he knows that the church is true and that he wants to invite all of his family and friends!!! Really is was great!!! We are excited to help the elders with him!!!
Well in this next week we have transfers and we are pretty sure that nothing will happen but you never know!!! But I hope all is well and that you all have a great week!! And I hope you all have put goals for this coming year!!! 2015!!!!
