Welp,
this week was really great! We saw a lot of miracles and also the work
of laziness and how bad it is! Haha. But seriously. We had an
investigator that was gonna get baptized this next week, but she told us
that she couldn´t make it because she was going to leave to visit one
of her daughters. Well, we call our investigators every night to make
sure they´re good and we called her and we were talking about how sad we
are that she´s going on vacation, but that we hope that it´s really
good, and she told us that she wasn´t gonna go. Now that she´s staying
she can get baptized next Saturday! We're really excited for her. Another
miracle is that we have an investigator that is really really great and
is really excited to be cleaned of his sins, and he lives kind of far
away and we told him that we were gonna go to his house at 8:30 in the
morning Sunday to get to the chapel, and he told us not to worry about
it and that he would go solo. When investigators tell us that... it
usually means that they're gonna flake. And he owns a bakery and starts
work at 6 in the morning and works until about 5 or 6 in the afternoon.
He has reasons not to go to church, but he went! All alone, he went and
that was really cool to see. Another miracle with the lazy. So, we told
about 6 people that we would pass by their house to wake them up and go
with them to the chapel, and so we went on splits and my companion went
with a youth and I went with another and we passed for these people and
were expecting 11 investigators in the chapel. Well, like a lot of
times, the some of the people that said they'd go flaked but we had 8 in
the chapel. When I asked my companion what happened to 2 of the
investigators that were gonna get baptized this Saturday, he told me
that they didn't want to wake up. And the worst part is that it´s a
family of 4 and 2 of them were ready and woke them up but they just said
that they didn't want wake up. We were really frustrated, but we saw
the miracles that we had and we're really happy. It was amazing to talk
to my family this Christmas and I hope that all of yours were just as
special and joyful! Have a happy new year!
