Main update on investigators. We taught Solomon this week and shared with us that he is unsure about baptism because his family in Catholic and he will have to change from the rest of his family. We just bore our testimonies of the power of the Book of Mormon and the importance of finding the truth for ourselves. We challenged him to pray and see. I was also able to give him a blessing of counsel so I am excited for the next time we visit to see how he is doing.
We had a super good lesson with the Cobacha family, sadly they didn't come to church this week but we are praying that next week will be the week. They actually kept their commitments to read and pray and stuff which is kinda rare so that was super awesome.
Other good investigators Sister Mekaela Canete is progressing super well and will be baptized February 17 along with Rochelle-Anne. I am excited for them and also Geraldine Guasin who is one of their friends is scheduled for Mar. 3. It's kinda funny that all of our good investigators are teenage girls but we are really trying to get families baptized but we take what we can get haha.
Ernesto and Rolando have kinda lost interest and we haven't been able to visit them in a while so that's kinda a bummer. We did get to contact the Apejas family and teach them so hopefully they can continue to progress.
This week should be very busy because we have zone conference tomorrow, zone interviews on thursday and exchanges with the Zone Leaders on wednesday so it will be a pretty crazy week. Next transfers are Feb. 21 so hopefully we can get some baptisms on Feb.17.
Thanks for the love and support. I can feel it everyday!
Love you tons
