Happy fourth of JULY (Almost)
This week was full of ups
We found 3 people this week,
Juan, gisele and julio
Juan, we found him chilling with his dog on a bench, and we just sat down with him.
We talked to him shared our purpose and exchanged numbers,
We then passed by sunday and there he was, we shared the restoration with him and gave him a Book Of Mormon,
Gisele is the sister of an inactive member named mike. They are both very sweet and nice
Julio was a great miracle, hes one of the most normal people ive met!
I know that sounds wierd but there are a lot of kookoo heads around these parts.
We found him on his porch and most of his family are members. We set a return date with him, went back on tuesday and there he was with his son waiting for us.
It was very lindo.
Because usually people say ohhh sure you can come by this day, and they are never there.
Ive started running consistently in the mornings, biking during the day and a bit of weights at night.
One Elder told me something in the begining of my mission thag stuck with me: "Elder, you're gonna lose your motivation to excercise", I took that to heart and im gonna prove him wrong!
We also have a friend named luis whos got a baptism date set for 22 of july so in 3 weeks, he is understanding little by little the importance of the BOM, and he is starting to apply the Gospel of Jesus Christ in his life!
We did an exchange with Elder Silva hes a sweet kid who knows everything, i love him to death, the picture of us biking explains him well haha
This week we could see that we were truly guided into the right places!
As long as we be good boys and good girls; and keep our covenants god will guide us right where we need to be :)
This saturday I was able to visit the baptism of one of my old friends in my last area named Jacob, I was only in that area for 3 months and didn't really think I made a big difference but all the members I talked to we're very excited to see me and even Jacob who was baptized was very excited to see me!
More than 3 months ago I had the amazing opportunity to baptize gerardo (jacobs grandpa) and last saturday i got to witness gerardo baptize his grandson: Jacob, it was such a tender moment! I almost began to cry, but im becoming a man so that wasnt an option.
Anyway
I love you all
Take care be safe
Love one another :))
