So you asked if this was a busy week... Yeah. We're always busy. We had intercambios, 2 district councils, the mission goal setting meeting, a baptismal interview, and a failed baptism. We'll get to that in a second. It's a good busy though. For the most part we are managing it, we're just tired.
I have to tell you about Daniel. He is the one that failed his baptism. We had everything set up at 9:00 am on Saturday, and he never came! We were calling him all morning and we had a bunch of friends come, but we just couldn't find him. He eventually answered around 2:00 pm. He had gotten food poisoning or an allergic reaction and was on the hospital. He came to church yesterday though and apologized. After we talked about it, he asked if he could be baptized right there and then instead of going to Sunday school. We hesitated a little, but in the end we decided it would be better on Tuesday. So he's getting baptized tomorrow night at 8:00 pm.
Milagros and Katty are doing well. We had 3 lessons with them this week, and they made us breakfast in the last one. Milagros is getting baptized for sure. Our second lesson with her this week was amazing. We taught about how we can recieve an answer from the spirit. She has recieved her answer, that was very clear. Katty, her daughter, has also received her answer, but she hasn't realized it yet. She is expecting something crazy like an angel appearing, but that's not normally how it works. We've already taught them everything, so as soon as she says yes, we're gonna do the interview and baptism pretty fast. The goal is to do the baptism on Friday. We'll see how it works out.
My pday next week will be Tuesday. We're gonna do something special....... Like a temple sealing! Jonathan and Melania are coming with their family to be sealed! We got permission from president to go with them. I've never done a sealing before, so this will be something new. I'm super excited. We also decided that on our normal temple day we're going to try to get permission to do more than just an endowment session. We want to stay afterwards and do initiatories and sealings as well. That will be an awesome temple pday.
We're going bowling today, so I might have more time later. Love you,
Elder Johnson
