Things are going great here! I
dont know if I already told you this but I am training again so I am
just waiting for my new comp. to arrive from the mtc right now. I'm
pretty excited to see who it is.. maybe a new gringo or mexican
or Brazilian. Yeah, I have no idea but I guess will see here in a few
hours.
Other than that, all is going well, I finsihed strong
with my last comp. and learned a ton. We found a kid named Matias that
started coming to the church in the beginning for a girl but i'ts funny
cause she is 19 and he is 17, so he lied to everybody and said that he
was 19 just for the girl haha and now he doesn't know how to tell them
all the truth. But anyways since he is 17 he needs signed permission
from his mom to be able to get baptized, but his mom refuses to give it
to him because he was baptized catholic as a baby and she doesn't want
him to change his religion... and it's super hard to accept that
sometimes especially when you hear his prayers asking the Lord to let
him get baptized then you seem him cry everytime that he thinks about
not being able to get baptized. He has so much desire its crazy so that
is what has kept my mind busy for this last week.
Yeah, that is something that has really called my
attention lately as I have been reading the scriptures.. we always see
the all of the basic commandments like the word of wisdom, the law of
chasity, tithing etc. but sometimes we dont realize how important it is
to develop christ like attributes which I think are just as important..
and sometimes it's the hardest thing to do, but for that reason we have
these experiences in the life to help us find the attributes and
characteristics. but anyway, that's just a thought haha
