5/7

Well, as the title says, week on in Xalostoc! Sorry I felt like being repetative. Anyways, so yeah, this week was good, very exhausting but good.

 

 

Baptizms give you one of the best feelings I have ever felt. You know that scripture that says something to the effect of how great shall be your joy for bringing souls unto Christ. Well, I am starting to understand what that means. Super cool!

 

 

Squassabia, now formaly known as Squashy, is cool, we get along real well and we work hard. We are having to modify our teaching methods because he teaches alot different then I did with Barben, but that just comes with time. He is also District Leader but he has 4 changes, or 6 months in this area so we are pretty sure he is leaving after this change. And that leaves a DL spot open.... Hmmm well, we are both thinking that might mean I am replacing him. Cool huh?

 

 

There is a scripture in Matthew I think it is that says something to the effect of: "I will never leave you, I will come to you. You are never alone." I have grown a strong testimony of this promise throughout the almost 8 months I have on the mission, I know no matter were I go, no matter what I do, no matter who or what I am with, He is always, and I mean ALWAYS there for you to comfort you and guide you as you take on lifes challenges. There is nothing he can not help you with. So if you need help, feel scared or alone, your first action should be to pray, pray for the help, the strength, the love to press on and walk through the difficult parts of this life so that you can enjoy the happy moments of this life. I know that this works I have seen it a million times, and probably will see it a million more times before my time is up here in Mexico. I love all of you, even though sometimes I am not good at showing it, I love all of you with every part of my being and will always, no matter what happens.

 

 

... It is really cool how sometimes the Spirit takes over and tells the people I am talking to what the Lord wants them to hear, so I hope that massive paragraph is awesome for you guys!

 

 

So as for cool stuff this week we went to am investigator that Squashy had in his last transfer and we taught her the commandments and commited her to baptizm but when the day came for her baptizm she had an apointment come up with her lwayer for something so we had to cancel, but this next week we should baptize her and probably a few others as well. But each time we went over you could tell that she feels the spirit and wants it, it is just a matter of fitting it into her schedule.

 

 

We also have a nother woman that we found, she has a hair salon, and we taught her and she is getting baptized this week as well. She has already been to church and is super excited.

 

 

Last thing, on Sunday we had a ward activity in which the Priesthood holders went on splits with the missionaries of the zone and went and visited inactives. We got a bunch of references and hopefully a bunch of people back at church.

 

 

Pictures!

The one of the baptizm is Maria from last week that I told you about. I got the picture from Barben. The others are of my house! It is considerably larger and alot nicer then my last house. Carpet in the bedroom and study room. Large living room. Never ending shower in the super roomy bathroom. Decked out kitchen and a super awesome landlady! All in all a good buy. Haha

 

 

I heard Romney and Obama are the two candidates for the elections, how do yall feel about that.
