Week 27 - Awesome Stake Conference

This week was actually super slow.

We've really just been doing a lot of contacting and finding. We had a huge list of investigators to find, and it has yet to lead to a single one, but it's alright. We're still doing good out here.

Our investigator Hermalinda and her son Gerardo are set to be baptized on March 22nd, and they're doing super great. They're the ones that don't speak the language that well. It's been pretty slow going with them, but they're very excited to get baptized. They live with their family that are all members, and they're super fun. They give us a lot of coke and let us ride in their Bocho (Old volkswagen Beetle) Their son Jesús just got baptized today, and the whole family is super excited for the 22nd!

Hermano Esteban is also doing really well. He is dating one of the members of the ward, and she has been preparing him for a long time. He's a cop, so he works every other day. He was going to get baptized of the 24th, but he didn't come to church today, and can't get baptized until April, after changes. Who knows who'll be in Temixco for that. He's a great investigator. He really wants to learn more, and he's very ready to make and keep commitments.

We had Stake conference this week and that was so good. The stake president love the book of mormon and couldn't stop talking about it. He talked about how Mormon and Moroni fought bravely, for almost 60 years. They were probably covered in scars, wounds, and they probably didn't walk right. But after all that, what do they write about? Not their triumphs, not their accomplishments, nor their weakness or condition. They never complain or brag about their incredible acheivements or problems. They just talk about how Charity is the pure love of christ, or how children are pure in the sight of god, or the importance of the Holy Ghost. What manner of men are they that they are so intune with the spirit that they have gone through so much, but they are still able to hear such little, powerful things of the spirit.

If every stake conference is like that, I'll never miss one.

That's all for me this week. Hope you're all great. Go to church and Read your scriptures. It's honestly a great way to find happiness. I promise you won't regret it.
