Letter to all:
Well another good week.
Sunday was a great day. 5 investigators came to church, Erasmo came
with his wife Melania, and he also brought a friend! How awesome, he´s
not even baptized yet and he brought a friend! Ronald said he wanted to
get married and baptized the 26th! So we are going to get him and Erasmo
baptized if everything comes out well. 2 weddings and 2 baptisms, and
we´ll get their wives baptized later on, hopefully I´ll still be here.
Josué came to church as
well, he liked it a lot, we have been teaching him for a while but for several
weeks we couldn´t find him. But we found him, we had a good lesson and he
said he was going to come to church, so yesterday we showed up to his house and
brought him. He said, next week I´ll bring my family and we´ll stay for
the 3 hours next week. So I´m excited for him and his family! We
met them one night about 3 months or so ago. It was raining and we were
looking for a less active member nearby, we came to their house asking if they
knew anyone by that name but they didn´t. They invited us into the house
and gave us coffee haha. We said no thanks we don´t drink that so they
gave us another drink. We had a lesson and he has been positive since.
But sadly he´s only home once a week.
Flor and Wilmer are
doing well, we had a great lesson on the plan of salvation but we didn´t get to
finish so we left them wondering what happens after we die, they liked the
lesson a lot.
Mitchel and Genaro are
doing well, only she has to start taking classed on Sundays now...bummer.
But it will be only for 3 weeks. She asked us a ton a questions.
She said she doesn´t like all of these evangelical churches that tell you
how to do everything in your life and you have to give money to a pastor who
just uses the tithing to buy a truck. We taught them about the basic
structure of the church and then we talked a little bit about forgiveness. We
ended talking a lot about the atonement of Jesus Christ. At the end they
said they still haven´t received an answer yet but they understand that it will
be in God’s time. But she did like that Christ had come to the Americas
and had always wondered ¨why didn´t he come to the Americas too.¨ So we are helping her recognize that reading
the Book of Mormon is key to getting an answer.
Well I´m very excited
for the baptisms and for the future one´s that will get baptized, we are
working harder than ever and looking how to become better missionaries.
Take care everyone, I
love you all!
Elder Willden
Today we went and climbed
up a big hill and took pictures of everything, it was pretty sweet! We
could see the whole city and more. Sadly the computer doesn´t read the
camera -- so until next week.
