Hello Everyone,
I must say it has been a great week. The work was a little slow because we had transfers (I luckily am with Hermana Wilde once again... YAY), and there were many things we needed to do in order to get everything running smoothly again. Plus it is starting to get cold out so many people don´t want to take the time to hear our message. I hope that it is not like this all winter, but if so I will continue to be happy and work my hardest. Oscar is doing great! He is so amazing. I wish all our investigators could be like him. He is coming to church every week, and is very excited to pay his tithing and follow the other commandments. He is even starting to save money so that he will be able to go to the temple in a year. My soul delights every time I see him. We also have two other investigators Cristian and Yamina they have had all the lessons, and are good to get baptized they just need to get married. The problem is that Yamina is wanting to have a big party, and they don´t have the money for that right now. With the help of the ward we are trying to help them see that they can have a beautiful celebration in the church for free, and if they would like to do something bigger they can in a year when they go through the temple. We will see what happens there over the next couple of weeks.
Also this week we started the Book of Mormon Challenge. It has been great so far. It is so amazing to me that every time you read it different things pop out to you depending on what you are going through at that point of your life. You can have different personal revelations every time you read. This week something that I really liked was whenever it would talk about the promised land for Nephi and his family I would think that my promised land is the Celestial Kingdom, and if I keep the commandments I will receive that blessing. The work is amazing. I love serving, and cannot believe that in no time at all it will yet again be time for another transfer. I love you all and will talk to you next week.
