Transfers
Well, the day has finally come where I leave my wonderful home of Ampliacion and enter into the land of Cuautemoc. I hate saying goddbyes. But it will be good to get to know new people. My area is very close to the mission house. AH! But it'll be good. My "Mom" (my trainer) said a few days before she was sure that I was going to Cuautemoc because I have to be near a hospital.... That's comforting... Haha. Welcome to my life in Mexico. But my health hasn't been that bad....
Anyways, My little JW is progressing so well and came to church again. She loved testimony meeting. (I bore my testimony! And the gift of tongues definitely took over) I really think she will be baptized because she is so prepared. We had a lesson the other day with her, and at the end I was bearing my testimony that we had been called by a prophet and she started bawling. She was sad because she had been a Jehovahs Witness and taught lts of people the wrong thing. She wants to go on a mission. We, well, my old companion and her new companion, just have to help her understand Jehovah and Jesus are the same person.
We went to visit a less active elderly couple who I love dearly. They remind me a lot of gma and gpa Chris. Well, the woman a little while ago broke her arm. She has taken a turn for the worst and isnt doing well at all. So, my companion was talking to her daughter and she asked me to sing hymns to her. So I sat by her side and sang. It was special. I wont lie I was terrifyed she was going to stop breathing at any moment, but she didnt. So that was good. It was a tender moment.
I am so grateful for this opportunity to serve and to get to help people come unto Christ every day. It is amazing to get to see peoples life change for the better and to see the Atonement work in their lives. Its amazing to be a missionary and we always need to do his will not ours.
Love you all and hope that all is well!
