Hello Everyone!!
What an awesome week! Elder Peterson and I have had a ton of
work and it has been a lot of fun.
Happy Independence Day, Mexico! That was one of the best
parts of the week. The ward put on an activity and everyone had to bring
something. So, Elder Peterson and I decided to make no-bake cookies. They
turned pretty good and now everyone wants the recipe. We had to go home before
the activity was over but the members had a lot of fun and there were a lot of
investigators as well.
The best news is that we are going to have a baptism this
week. Jonathan is super excited and even
though he is only nine years old, he is a great example to his family. He came
to clean the church this Saturday by himself. He was the only one there with
the Bishop when we showed up. It is going to be a big help to his family that
he is getting baptized.
We also have another baptism planned for the 11th
of October. He is Jonathan’s cousin Luis. He just came to church for the first
time this week but he is really excited as well.
This week, I also gave my first official English Class in
Mexico. It was just the first week so it was a little rough but as we get more
organized, we think it well become pretty successful.
We also saw some of our hard work pay off this week. We have been visiting a recent convert named
Krystell a lot because she is the only member of her family. Her brother Esteban has been really closed
off. The first thing she said to me was,
“I don’t like your church.”
Anyway, we have visited them, helped them with homework and
done services as well. Finally, they are
starting to listen. Nancy and Esteban both went to the activity on Wednesday
and English class. We are hoping that this
week they will go to church with us.
Well, hope you are all doing great!
Love you all! Talk to you soon
Elder Lightheart
