WEll, the day has finally come. I now have a "Baby." Well, actually its more like a toddler because she has 6 weeks, but, I get to finish training the lovely Hermana Montalvo! Yay! This is going to be fun. Not going to lie i am a little terrified, but its going to be awesome.
The space bar doesn't work well, so if there are problems, sorry.....
This last week was AWESOME! The Ramons were baptized!!!! It was one of the loveliest baptisms. The talks were great. The ordinance went well. Poor grandpa Ramon had to do it twice because the first time his feet shot out. but its not easy to baptize a 83 year old. While they were changing we put "the touch of the masters hand" on. Everyone was crying because the spirit was so strong. Then my companion Andi sang a song.I dont know if it exists in English, but it talks about finding our friends from the premortal life.Its really beautiful. People were crying like crazy. Even the bishop who is the biggest jokster couldn't stop crying, and he don't cry! One of our other investigators went, and now he just wants to enter the water. Hes just got to get married! I don't understand why that's such a big problem here, but it is. Anyways, they were so happy and the spirit was so strong.
Also, it rained lots! Which means floods! We live right by a lagoon filled with crocodiles... They like to leave the water when it rains. Its exciting. Watch your step!!
I have lots of pictures from this week, but the computer wont read my card.... Boo. So sorry. But next week i will send them!
This week I have been brought to think a lot about what kind of impression we want others to have of us. I have heard a lot this week, "OH! You are the sister that is full of love! " or "I have heard lots about you. This member from another ward says they always felt loved when they were with you." Well, I have been thinking about it because at first for some strange reason it bothered me." Am I good for nothing more than to love others?" But you know what I learned, Love is the key to everything. So its ok. Its ok if I still cant teach perfectly. Its ok if my Spanish still isn't like a Hispanic persons is. Its ok if don't have all the answers. God is love. We need to share it. So, share your love! Don't be afraid to let it show! Be yourself. You are unique, so don't be someone else.
That's about it. Love you all so very much! Conference is coming!!!! YAY!!!! Start preparing for the inspired words!!!
LOVES!!!!
Hermana Stanger
