4th of July - Week 3 San Marcos - De Zavala

July 4, 2016

I hope that everyone is having a great 4th of July! Apparently a lot
of people like to come and celebrate here in San Marcos because there
are just people everywhere today.

This last week was great. We got to meet the new President. His name
is President Polley and he is great. We had our first interview with
him as well. That was pretty scary. He is a retired FBI agent and he
specialized in interrogation. But the interview went well, it wasn't
as scary as I thought it would be.

The other Elders in De Zavala had a baptism this last week. I got to
do the interview for them which was pretty fun. It is super cool to be
able to just talk to someone who is ready for baptism and just hear
their testimony. I talked to her husband a little bit as well. He was
super excited for his wife's baptism. He should be getting baptized
here in a few weeks as well. He was just nervous about it, but he said
that he wants to get sealed to his wife in the Temple and felt that
watching her baptism would help him out a lot. So that was great to
see.

We have been  able to work with a lot of Less Actives this last week.
We are really trying to help strengthen the Branch more right now
because there aren't a lot of active members. So we decided that a
great place to start was with the Less Actives. So far it has gone
great. We have been able to reignite the fire in a few people. And now
they are getting started with the process of preparing for the temple.
There is a lot of blessings waiting for them!

The church is true!

Have a great week! Love y'all!

Elder Mackay
