I don't think I've told you very much about Adan! Wow. So a recently baptized family just had their little boy turn 8 years old. It was such a joy to see how happy he and his family was. Hopefully we will be able to help the parents be baptized soon!
The Padilla family! Oh my goodness what a week! They've been progressing, but it has been a rough week. We did everything we could to help them reach their goal of being baptized this week, but they just weren't quite ready yet. They are reading and loving the Book of Mormon. They still have some things they need to change and commandments they need to learn. Keep praying for them.
We are teaching Liz and Richard. Funny story with them: They had a church tour this past week at like 8:00 at night. It was pretty dark, so when they entered the church it was a really spooky. All the class rooms were dark, only a few hall lights lit. There was faint piano music playing, then as soon as they opened the chapel door, they heard light singing. Richard freaked out, and warned Liz not to GO TOWARDS the music. and they turned and were headed out, fortuantely we caught them and ended up having a really spiritual church tour. :) They are so cool. They are really looking forward to being clean from sin and feeling more peace in their lives.
We took Robert to a lesson with us, (our recent convert) and he bore his testimony in a contact. Then after we left he had the missionary fire and went and talked to some random people fishing all by himself about the gospel. They spoke spanish so it was pretty tough for him, but we were pleasantly shocked when he told us. He really wants to go on a mission.
So I'm doing really well. Sister Wonnacott bikes like Karen and Kathi's energy combined, so my legs are dead. And we found out that our area doesn't really have a northern boundary, so we explored some members homes waaaay north and found out that our area touches the beach! I got to go on a couple of exchanges with some great sisters and I really hope that they got something out of it. I am reading Jesus the Christ and loving it. How did family history go this week? Happy birthday Tegan and Teyah!
