Okay so this week was pretty weird...we had appts and more full days than
we usually do (which is weird cause we usually have VC shift or have a bunch of
study hours cause I'm new ish still...) anywho - many of our appts fell through
and we ended up driving places, getting out and walking and no one was around.
so it was a tad slow.
I do have a little sad news, Francisco isn't getting baptized :/ He was
going to be baptized this Sunday be just wasn't ready to pay tithing and it was
really sad because he knows it's important....It is all okay though because
everything is in the Lord's timing and I have seen him come so far and learn so
much that he just has to have a few more good touches that will help his faith
grow and he'll be able to be baptized by someone holding the Priesthood
authority of God.
Other news in the mission - KLISMA! have
i told you about him? I think so. Well he is doing really well! He is keeping
commitments and is an all around great person. Right now, he is strugling a
little with feeling the Spirit...more recognizing that it is the Spirit. We had
a tour at the VC with him the other day (that is where we take him in and
another sister at the VC gives him a lesson by the Spirit and with the resources
at the VC). He was taught the Gospel of Jesus Christ and even said he felt peace
as he was listening the the scriptures where Jesus Christ's speaks that goes
along with the Christus. Peace is one of the fruits or manifestations of the
Spirit. He just doesn't recognize it as that because he doesn't think he has
ever felt it before because his friends before have told him that it's some big
grand experience...which it can be but depends on the person, but overall it is
a softness not super overwhelming until you start to understand it more,
sometimes isn't. So we are trying to help him feel the Spirit and recognize that
he is feeling it. All in all he is doing well, and I'm excited for him to learn
what the Spirit feels like to him.
SPORTS DAY!! Well, we had this game where we were on a soccer field, with a
soccer game going the length of the field with 2 soccer balls...the other way of
the field was quiddich YES _ QUIDDICH...and the diaginal was capture the
flag...oh and people threw dodgeballs to get people out. Well, gues what I
played? haha, yep SOCCER!!! YEAH! we actually had 3 goalies, i was one but
ended up playing defense. Thanks mom and dad for letting me play soccer as
a kid! I was allowed to slide and stuff and it was awesome...I may have stolen
one or two balls from some elders and everyone screamed HAHA it was
super fun! So it was all and all a fun day!
