We had a great week this week.
On Tuesday we did exchanges. Elder Hall came here with me again, so I
had the chance to practice my Mario sounds again. That night we gave a
church tour to Patti and her 8 year old son Ángel which went really
well. They enjoyed it a lot. Ángel was super excited because he went
to church with his grandma a few times in Utah so he was really
excited to see what the church here was like. The spirit was very
strong as we showed them the baptismal font. We just sat in that room
and talked for like 20 minutes because Patti didn't want to leave
because she felt so peaceful.
Then on Friday we talked to Patti again. Turns out Ángel has had
cancer since he was a baby and went through chemotherapy and stuff
before. But they went to the doctor and he has to start chemotherapy
again. They were pretty torn apart. Patti asked us to give him a
blessing, I have never given a blessing in Spanish before but it's a
good thing the Gift of Tongues is real. After the blessing Ángel was
just saying how peaceful he felt. They were saying how they always
feel so peaceful when we and how they really want to come to church to
feel even more peace.
Well on Sunday they came to church! Patti quit her job so that she
could come to church. It was a great day at church. We started a
Gospel Principles class in Spanish. We only had 3 people there but the
spirit was so strong. Sis. Nix and Alejandra were just bearing there
testimony non stop, they said they never get the chance to because
they can't express themselves in English so they were just going for
it. It was awesome.
That was basically our week.
The spirit provides peace and happiness to all!
Love y'all!
