Every Single Door Will Be Opened
We
have a solid two weeks with out a single person telling us no. Honestly
not even sure how to put into words all that is happening here in
Flores. It's as if the Savior himself is walking in front of us talking
to the people before we get there. Maybe it's all the missionary´s
prayers in Europe that are having a hard time. Just feeling so blessed and
lucky to be here. The other Elders had a Baptism this week. The district, we are three companionship, has 7 weeks in a row with baptisms. Pretty
awesome.
This
week our new investigator came to church. Long story short after seeing a Mormon kid pray on his food she starting investigating the church and
got in touch with this Elder that finished his mission here in Honduras a
few months back. After about two weeks of doing her own research she
agreed to meet with the missionaries. That's when we got a message with
her number and her name. This doesn't happened that much in the mission
so at first I was like uhhh Lord bless my Spanish so she will agree to
let us visit her (almost anyone will hang up the phone when they hear an
accent). The second after I introduced myself as the LDS missionaries
she is like umm it would be awesome if you passed by Saturday at like 6.
UNREAL. I was so hyped. The lesson Saturday was even better. She had
read almost all of first Nephi and had watched the Joseph Smith movie.
Sunday she showed up all by her self and I sat down to explain the
hymns. As sacrament started I remembered that the branch had gone to the
temple on Saturday and it was also testimony meeting. The first few
people gave great powerful testimonies of how they felt closer to
heaven in the temple. Then this little 12 year old girl gets up
"I went to the temple yesterday, it was amazing. I was baptized for 42
DEAD PEOPLE¨. I about fell out of my seat and our investigator just
looks at me like ummmm waaaitttt. Later we passed by for her house and
everything turned out good. life is good. the mission is the hardest
greatest experience on the planet. lovee your guys.
Cant wait to hug my mom in two weeks. lol
