Hello my friends how are you all doing, well this week was
super busy for us and a ton of weird stories also took place, so this will be
an exciting email!
So Saturday was nuts. We had to meet up from some divisions
that we had on Friday down in San Bernardo, in the south part of our mission,
and then we had to go back to our sector because we had the baptism of Nico!
Nico is the little boy that we have been teaching and it was so fun to see his
baptism, he asked me to baptize him, which is also the first time I have done
that in my mission, usually a member of our ward does the actually baptizing,
but Nico wanted me to do his! So I do not know who was more nervous, me or him,
but it all worked out great! I was so excited for him to see him finally come
to become a member of the Church, it was a nice and pleasant baptismal service,
and his entire family was there to support him. Right after the baptism we went
to bishops house to eat lunch with him and talk about the things of the wrad,
so that we could get all organized with what our goals and the goals of bishop
are and how we can work together!
So Part 2 of Saturday was that our investigators Regina and
Uber got married! They had their wedding in the chapel at night time, so we
hurried and ran over, because I was also the witness for their marriage, so I
had to sign the papers, aka, I was the best man!!!!!!!! So that was freaking
dope. It was a great wedding, the members really helped out with decorating the
chapel and getting the food and everything prepared, it was a great wedding. I
was sweating bullets for about an hour because some of my legal paperwork was
weird and I thought they were not going to let me be the witness and that the
wedding was going to get called off, but no! It all was good so we are good.
And on Sunday, Uber got baptized in the afternoon, so overall it was one of the
best weekends of my mission.
Ok so scary and funny story of the week. So last night we
are chilling in our house the 4 of us just talking about our day and our lives
and all of the sudden there is a knock on our door which was super weird
because it was likt 10:30 at night. My companion opens the door and there is an
old guy standing there with a crazy look on his face and he tells us to leave
the house so that he can come inside. We all looked at each other and my
companion says "NO HAVE A NICE NIGHT". So we were almost robbed last
night, but my companion was a legend and polietly told the guy to get lost, so
he did not rob us wooooohooooooooo!
The misson is great, remember guys do not open the door to
weird, old, bearded men who have one hand behind their back asking to go inside
your house!
Love,
