GOOO WILFREDO!! He was baptized yesterday and it was such a
wonderful service. After he said he felt Liberado, or to say free. The change
in his personage and his smile was definitely noticeable. The Gospel of Jsus
Christ is real and is restored. It is such a blessing to help others find the
path and receive their answer through prayer that it is true.
We have been teaching Emmanuel, a 17-year-old for a couple
of weeks. He was my companion’s old investigator we started to reteach him. He
will be baptized this next Sunday, the 23rd. He is so happy and after seeing
the baptism of Wilfredo, he is so anxious. haha I am so grateful to see someone
so young want to take this step in his life. In his exact age is when I found
out this was the true church and that the Lord needed me to serve. It makes me
overjoyed to be able to help others, especially the younger generation. They
can then also also to serve a mission and he has mentioned it as a possibility.
It has been weird teaching him because we teach him in English because he grew
up in Texas and likes English better. Sometimes we can’t remember some words in
English, so we have to teach some parts in Spanish. haha It’s funny that we
forget our own language.
I gave my fist talk in my mission finally and it was about
the Word of Wisdom. haha It went well and I am grateful for how much the Lord
has helped me learn and communicate in this language.
I had an experience this week that will forever be life
changing. The other night I was praying to find those who are prepared and I
have been asking recently to be able to recognize who they are. In my prayer I
saw a Dominican man with short hair, with jeans and a red shirt. The following
day we went to visit a less active. She is the only member in her family and
lives with her family and other friends. At the end of the visit a man walked
past the door and I asked if that was her husband and she said it was. It was a
Dominican, with short hair, jeans and a red shirt. I had written the
description of the man in my agenda and I shared with her my experience. The
Spirit was felt really strong and we testified that God has been preparing her
husband for a while and that he is ready. We will visit them this week.
I know God knows each and every one of his children. Have a
wonderful week! les quiero un monton
