Week 64 in Uruguay: "Gaston and Joaquin get dunked!"

10/29/18-11/5/18

"Gaston and Joaquin get dunked!”


Tuesday - Wednesday
We had our first "Jedi Council Meeting," which was amazing. I learned so much about the Atonement and my testimony has never been stronger and clearer than now. The Atonement is such a gift we have! I am so grateful for my Savior who died for me. The real question to ask now is, "Is what I'm doing making Jesus Christ suffer more or less?" It goes along with your actions, thoughts, and feelings. Would Jesus Christ be happy with what I'm doing and am I doing enough? As we serve, are we still serving others? Are we following our leaders and still keeping up our study habits? Things to think about... I mean, if a man who is 94 can do it (President Nelson), I think we all can! Also, please make it a goal to go to the temple at least two times a month. We all need to feel that peace.. so go!! There are so many opportunities that we don't take, so change now and receive answers to questions you might have. God wants you home! Wednesday, we taught William, I love this dude. I gave him an Avenger clip and he takes it everywhere. He is so humble. It was also Halloween, so we got food/candy out to all the little kids. So fun!


Thursday - Friday
We taught a man the Plan of Salvation and the Spirit was so strong. This guy named, Osbaldo, cried knowing he could see his wife again. Super cool day! We were up the whole day, walking, trying to find someone to teach. We found a lot of special people. Also, we made pizza!!! Pizza from scratch... not too bad. To end the day, I got bit by a Chihuahua. Out of all the dogs a Chihuahua! haha. Friday was a little slower day. We taught William and it was such a good charla. We then gave a blessing to a member. I got my workout with my boyzzzz, Elder Lloyd and Elder Ibarre. It is so funny with them. Overall, it was such a good day!


Saturday - Sunday
We had to empty the baptismal font for over an hour with buckets. It was fun though... we made it a game. After that, we had 2 baptisms!! Gaston and Joaquin, they are brothers! The best thing was that Gaston kept coming out of the water, so after the 5th time it all worked. He went on his knees haha. After, the baptisms, we had an activity. It was so fun. On Sunday, I was able to confirm Joaquin to be a member and gave him the Holy Ghost. It was such an amazing experience... the Spirit was so strong! Well, I hope you all got to bear your testimony because your words might be the thing someone needs to hear. God will use you as an instrument.


I love you all,
Elder Knelly
