The wonderful Honduran Girls that I mentioned last week have
finally progressed to the point of getting BAPTIZED! One was struggling and would not BUDGE until receiving an answer that she was supposed to get
baptized. We tried everything. Lessons explaining her progression, pointing out
the commandments, her testimony of the truthfulness of the gospel, going to
the temple, and having FHE with our ward. Nothing seemed to work; she was firm. Then
our DL asked us if he could give the 3 their interviews and to prepare, with faith, for the following Sunday. In the
interview...I don't know what was said but after the interview the 3 girls told
us that they will be getting baptized this upcoming Sunday. They decided to be
baptized in the ocean which was a little sad because we can't go BUT they
committed! Nancy just received her answer, I guess. We were over the
moon!
Victor calls us his granddaughters! We had the wonderful
great opportunity to help get him a job. Now, he is so much happier and busier
and feels included. One of our members gave him clothes the other day. I LOVE
MY WARD! They are so precious. I almost burst into tears when she handed
us the clothes. You know that you have become a missionary when you feel more
loved by the ward when they accept, love and revere your investigators instead
of you. That is the greatest gift I might have ever been given. To have them
love someone I love so much. YEAH :)
This week has been one of a lot of finding.
