This week we went to
teach Paula and her son Luis again. They are seriously so awesome! They are
still reading the Book of Mormon and Luis is still doing so well with his
prayers. We taught them about the Holy Ghost and how to receive revelation, and
we also taught about the Ten Commandments. I truly believe that they will get
baptized someday.
Our investigator Irene
took a big step this week to progress towards baptism. She is kind of
struggling since the decision she had to make was very difficult but I have no
doubt in my mind that she will be blessed and that things will work out
somehow, someway.
It has been tough
lately because for the past two days, every appointment that we had canceled.
And yesterday a Jehovah's Witness was arguing with us for like half an hour,
and he wouldn't listen to our message at all but he was just being a nuisance.
He was first arguing about how Jehovah is God, not Jesus. We've had that
subject come up a lot lately. So we basically have not been able to catch a
break and it's been kind of rough.
This week we also
visited our recent convert Norma, who was baptized in March but she is so solid
you'd never guess that she's only been a member for a few months. She is the
sweetest person ever.
I saw an ad for
Finding Dory and it actually made me kind of homesick haha. I guess it's
because I feel like I grew up with Finding Nemo and I wish I could go to the
movies with you guys, but I know that we'll have good times when I get home.
I don't even know what
else to write, it's just been so exhausting lately.
Next Sunday we
get our transfer calls, so I'll see whether I'm staying here or not.
Love,
Hermana Aburto
P.S. In Turlock
there's this frozen yogurt place named Brain Freeze which I will take you to
someday; it's the best!
