This week was pretty
awesome! We saw a lot of little miracles.
We just had transfers
and I’m staying in 9 de Julio with Elder Told. I’m pretty happy about that. We
get along really well and I need to learn the area a little more.
This week we were
walking and we walked by a house and we heard someone say, “Elders!” And so we stopped to talk to him. Turns out
that he is a 60-year-old man and was really inactive. He invited us in and we
got to know him. Real awesome guy. Then his son came in and we were able to
talk to him and he liked what we taught. We were able to invite him to baptism
and he accepted. He and his dad went to church this Sunday. It was a blessing
and they really liked church.
We are still working
with Tony and his family, but I think they have a lot of things to do for their
family and so their progression is a little complicated.
This week I was
reading Jesus the Christ and it was talking about when he left for the desert
to be tempted after he was baptized. As I read about this part of his journey,
I loved the answers that he gave Satan. If I’m not wrong I think it’s in Luke
4. But I’m not too sure. For example one of the temptations that called my
attention is when Satan told him that if he was a son of God he could turn the
rocks into bread so that he wouldn’t be hungry. In Jesus the Christ, it talks
about how Satan used the word “if” to make him doubt. Jesus rapidly replied
that man will not only live by bread but also from the words of God. But it made
me think of how many times Satan tries to use that same word “if” to make us
doubt. We go through many tests and trials here in our lives and sometimes Satan
tries to make us think that we might not be sons and daughters of God or that
God doesn’t care. I want to remind you all that we are all sons and daughters
of God and that we all have a divine potential.
That’s about it for
this week. I’m doing good and enjoying the mission! :)

Here is a photo of our
district.
A picture of the
railroad that is close to our house.
This is a picture of
some calzones that a sister gave us for lunch one day! They were bigger than
our faces!
These are some pictures that the sister missionaries passed
me. One from a P-day where we went to the Burger King here.
The other picture is from when I did exchanges with the
leader of the zone, and we ended up helping out the sisters with asking the
Elders if they had symptoms of a sickness. It was pretty awkward...haha
