Hola mi familia!
This week has been so awesome! There were so many
spiritual things packed into this week that it just flew by. I am so grateful I
have the opportunity to serve with elder lachance for his last transfer.
We are
working hard, but having a blast with it at the same time.
So first off we moved, so I live at
109 players court Nashville, TN
The biggest miracle this week was really starting to work
with the Rivera family. That's Fabian and his girlfriend/wife Carmen and their
son Miguel. We were able to meet with them three times this week, and they are
reading in the Book of Mormon. They came to our ex- missionary activity, which
was supposed to be just an activity to get ex-missionaries excited to do
missionary work again. and it turned out to be awesome, because the members all
just testified to them the whole time. They weren't able to make it to church
this week, but we are going to work super hard this week to get them there next
week. We are also planning on setting a baptismal date with them for the 3rd of
June. We want to set it a little farther out so that Fabian, the dad, can be
worthy to baptize them. Also they need to get married first. We are going to
talk to them about all this tonight. We have such high hopes for them, and I
already love them so much.
Then Saturday we all piled into the mission van to travel
up to Paducah, Kentucky(2 hours and 20 minutes) we were going up there because
Elder Neil L. Anderson was visiting for their stake conference! And he invited
half of the mission to come meet with him.
We all got to shake his hand and you could see the pure
love he has in his eyes. The thing that really stood out to me was how
comfortable it was to be around him. And he even told us that he never really
talks so casually, but he could feel how focused we were on the work so he felt
comfortable talking like that. I thought that was a super cool experience. I'm
really grateful that I had the opportunity to go.
We also had another baptism on Saturday. The zone leaders
were the ones that taught her. So we had two confirmations at church yesterday.
I love you all!
