Hello everyone how are you doing? This week has been hectic
so I am going to let you know some of the details about what has happened in
the last week.
But of course, we have to start with the people. So I do not
know if you guys remember, but about a year ago when I was with Elder Gowers,
we contacted a haitian named Nevelt and we taught him for 5 months, and then I
left the sector so I do not know what happened with him. But, the other day I
got a phone call and another missionary told me that they had refound Nevelt in
a different sector and that he was getting baptized! Nevelt remembered me and
invited me to his baptism, so I got permission and we went, becasue as well my
comapnion ahora, Elder Gavilanez, taught Nevelt a couple months ago! So we show
up at the homies baptism and he saw me and ran over and gave me a giant hug, I
LOVE THAT GUY! After a year of hearing the missionaries, Nevelt finally entered
the waters of baptism, miracles do exist.
And ......... this Saturday Camila is getting baptized! She
is the daughter of Freddy and Jhubytza, and she is super ready to get baptized,
we have everything all planned out, and she is so excited, so there will
definitely be another good story coming next week! As well we are preparing for
several other baptisms in the upcoming weeks, so our lives have become a little
more crazy than normal, but it is a good crazy!
Yesterday we had a visit from Elder Christofferson from the
Cuorum of the 12. We were all waiting for him to come, and we did not even hear
or see him enter the building, but all of the sudden the atmosphere changed and
the Spirit became almost tangible, it was awesome. He talked about the Book of
Mormon and the Doctrine of Christ, it gives me such comfort to know we have
authorized servants fo God on the earth today.
Ok so lets talk about the week. So last Saturday my
companion and I changed houses! There were some missionaries that were
struggling in the zone, so we talked with President, and we moved in with them
for this week, so that as well has made our lives crazy, becuase our new house
is like 500 miles away from our sector, ahahhahah ok not really but it is
freaking lejos. As well in the last 6 days we have been on 5 divisiones with
different missionaries, I am so glad to be back with my normal companion after
all of this time, I missed the little guy.
Of course, I always say it, but I love the mission, I know
that this church is true. When Lehi talked of the delicious fruit that he tried
in his dream, it was the fruit and the joy of the Gospel, nothing else blesses
us the way that Cristo and teh gospel do. Love yall!
Love,
Elder Tilghman
