Fanny
got baptized, but I don't know what hijo you're referring too. She's 19. (I meant Isabel's son) Yeah
that was Isabel's son. He's doing well. Now that Fanny is officially a member
we'll probably start focusing a little more on him. Fanny keeps telling him to
get baptized. haha
I
don't really know where I want to finish, but I'd prefer not to go back to Papantla.
Watch that happen.
My favorite part of the week was between
Fanny's baptism and basketball this morning. Something that was really cool at
Fanny's baptism is that one of the other members knew that she liked the series
"Stranger Things" so she prepared little jello cups that had
toothpicks in them and taped to the toothpicks were little papers that said
"Felicidades Fanny" or "Bienvenida Fanny" or other things
like that in the font that Stranger Things is written in. That sort of extra
effort is rarely seen so I appreciated it a lot. Also when we played basketball
we finished by playing lightning with 15 guys. I won 2 of the 4 times.
Something
that I liked in my studies was a talk by Boyd K. Packer that I listened to
that's called "Spiritual Crocodiles" (I think). Look it up, it's
good.
This week we ate with Isabel and she gave us breaded shark so that was
awesome. It reminded me of fish sticks, but had a buttery flavor. We could say
it was the 2.0 version.
A tender mercy was that we hadn't found very many new
people to teach this week when Saturday came around, but just a few minutes
before we were supposed to go eat we tried one last contact and were able to
find 3 new people to teach behind that door. That was exciting.
Something that
I'm extra grateful for this week is the sacrament. It's the best moment to
reflect on what we can do to be more Christlike and consider how we're
progressing.
Love
you,
