Andrea’s Baptism
Tuesday – Wednesday
Tuesday was such an awesome day! We went to Las Piedras for an interchange with the zone leaders. I got to go with Elder Hunt. We told stories the whole time super fun, but the best was being able to teach with him. He let me lead a lot and it was awesome to see the people starting to understand when we taught. So many miracles that day. It reminded me of my days with Elder Bailey. I miss you man. It was awesome! Just what I needed.
Wednesday we did a hard workout then went to a service with the Hermanas. We painted and cut branches, it was fun. Then after, I tried to help cook let’s just say I have a lot to learn. When we got home we went to Silva y Herrera. The best miracle happened, someone offered Silva a cigarette and he said no. I love him. We got home and ate some good old fashion macaroni and cheese.
Thursday – Friday
Well, today was freezing! We are now having competitions when we contact people. Super fun and funny. We come up with the word that the other person has to say while talking to the person, so funny. Well, we thought Alvaro. He is reading the book of Mormon every day, it’s awesome! Andrea is so scared to get dunked haha it’s hilarious. Well, we got home and my comp called pizza again! The best part was the people already had the pizzas ready and didn’t even ask who it was.
Friday, we planned and then I went out to work with Elder Hunt because they did the interview for our baptism. After, we had a ping-pong tourney with Elder Rodriguez, Baute, Alvaro, Santiago, Presidente, Fulquez and myself. The games were so funny! I LOVE my branch! The people are the most humble, best people ever. It came down to my comp and I and I ended up winning LOL . My nickname is Mr. Professor now.
Saturday to Sunday
I GOT TO BAPTIZE Andrea. The day was perfect! When we were entering the water I felt complete peace. When I said the prayer I felt the spirit so strong. When Andrea came out of the water she sat there and just teared up, it was the most amazing thing ever! This is why I am here, to help bring others to feel the love from their Savior! The feeling is indescribable! Do whatever you can to help people feel of this spirit. It is so important in the lives of others.
Sunday, we were able to give Andrea the Holy Ghost. What a special feeling and amazing thing that was! It was such a great day. After, Hermano Baute and everyone was still talking about our ping-pong match. Baute called me his hijo, so funny. We ate with Baute and I put down 6 enchiladas and about died. The people here are so humble, I love them. Well I had a really strong feeling to go to Paulina’s house, she was baptized a year ago. We went and visited and her whole family was over and wanted to listen to us. The lesson was AWESOME! The spirit was so strong. Please always listen to that still small voice!!
