Hola Mis Amigos y Familia!
Finally I get a normal week in the mission. Nothing really grand happened.... Wait what am I saying everyday in the work of the Lord is Grand!!! However, this week was very normal. We had success on some of days, and others we had people hiding from us. One day Hermana Wilde and I were out tracting and I just started busting out laughing... She looked at me a little weird for a second wondering where the sudden amusement come from. I told her how I just realized we were like the Mary Kay ladies... Once they get your name and number they never leave you alone. Haha The difference is instead of teaching people how to minimize wrinkles we are showing them how to prepare for their eternal salvation, and it doesn´t even cost anything. I think that sounds like a killer deal don´t you... It´s amazing how many people won’t even listen to the message. Oh well, we will find the ones that the Lord has prepared now.
Oscar got baptized on Saturday!!! The baptism was amazing. However, I could really see Satan working his Magic trying to make sure things didn´t work out. In the end God prevailed like always. Oscar looked so happy. I am really hoping that he will turn around and try to do the work for his wife. It is a little harder here because the closet temple is in Chile. Well the work is coming along great. I love the gospel. I will talk to you all next week.
Adios,
Hermana Ricks
I never get on the internet, but I had to let you know that I was thinking of you on your Birthday. I talk about you all of the time and I have a 2 page letter written. Things are super busy and when they slow down, I am going to write you more. God Bless you and stay safe. Look out Argentina, because you've never had anyone like Sister Marlene Ricks there before.
