7/27/2011 - Meeting of the Mom's

Mom's Probing Questions:


How old was the boy you were trying to baptize? and did he end up getting back in to get baptized?
How may investigators do you have right now and what are their names? Tell us about them.
Tell us about what you do on a daily basis, what's your routine?
What's the most spiritual thing that has happened since you've been out in the field?
What's the weather like right now?
Where do you get to write to us, from what computer or place do you go? Can you send pictures?



The little boy was 9 and we are trying to baptise him this week he says he will but we will see. We have probably a pool of 30 investigators but about half are progressing just because we cant set another date when they are home. A couple of them are familia Ramirez who really want to get baptised but arent married we are working on that. A recent convert is conrado who was totally ready to be baptized the day we meet him his wife is dead and he lives alone the gospel is already changing his life and bringing blessing I got to baptize him this last Sunday and that was great. We conferm him thais Sunday. Well we wake up everyday exercise and shower Personal study companion study language study go out for a couple hours usually contacting. THen there is luch with our cocinera which is always good. After we go back to work and switch off between citas and contacting. At around 830 we head home and around 9 we get there.Then its dinner whatever is in the house if we are hungry Then write in journal repot dats and talk. 1030 bedtime. The most spiritual experince I have had was when we were teaching a family and the hma doesnt want to go to church because of fear of what her family will think. Basically told her the decision is yours but THey werent my word I was definatly talking with the Spirit. There have been more but that was my first true experiance with that and it felt great. Right now its rainy season so about 50 60 percent chance it will rain every day but rain doest bother me and the sun is definately not as powerful as AZ. we just come here to this computer lounge with our district and pay 5 q for an hour. We always do it after district meeting that why I write on different days some times. LOve you mom and thankyou for everything. write to you next week.






As a side note, I was able to meet Dallin's MTC companion and have lunch with her. It was fun meeting with you Janelle (Elder Tanner Hopkin's Mom). I was born in Mexico, she was born in Canada, we eat lunch in Arizona, and our sons are serving in Guatemala. Small world.
